You are most likely thinking of Apocalypse Now , another film set in Vietnam.
In that film, Brando was paid $1 million before even gettng the script.
He eventually got $3 million plus 8% of the gross. I could not find the final amount he made on this film, but one source said it was more than any other film he had worked on.

How was marlon brando's childhood like?
Marlon Brando's childhood was not happy. His parents drank too much alcohol and argued often. Dorothy Brando blamed her husband for the failure of her acting career. The older Marlon Brando did not have a good relationship with his son. In a book about his life, the actor wrote that his father never had anything good to say about his son. The Brandos moved many times when Marlon was young. His parents separated when he was eleven, but they re-united after two years. Young Marlon was always getting into trouble at school. His father decided to send him to a military school in Minnesota. Marlon did not do well in classes there. But he did find support for his interest in theater. A drama teacher urged him to begin acting in plays there and he did. But he was expelled from the school for getting into trouble.

Why is Marlon Brando famous?
He is still considered by many to be the best stage and screen actor of all time. His signature role was Stanley Kowalski in Streetcar Named Desire or possibly as Vito Corleone in The Godfather.
Why was Marlon Brando famous?
Brando became famous for his role in A Streetcar Name Desire. His performance in that movie popularized method acting, where a performer immerses themselves in the mindset of their character. Brando's performance in the movie stands out because every other actor is still using stage acting techniques, clearly annunciating their words and making broad gestures "for the back seats," while Brando plays his role as realistically as possible. He mumbles many of his lines and uses small gestures that a camera picks up, but a stage audience would not have. In doing so he is often credited with revolutionizing acting for film as a distinctly different art than acting for stage.
Did Marlon Brando have a Religion?
There are a few rumours that Brando refused to swear on the bible at a trial stating that he was an atheist, however there is little supporting evidence for that. It is clear that Brando had unconventional beliefs (about a lot of things!) and apparently had a strong affinity for native American spiritual beliefs, he also sent his children to Jewish schools and named one of sons "Christian". So, all in all, he probably wouldn't have described himself as atheist.
How many Oscars have been replaced?
It likely happens all the time. Marlon Brando reportedly asked for a replacement for his 1954 Best Actor Oscar for "On the Waterfront" after it was stolen. This was after he refused the 1972 Best Actor award for "The Godfather."
