Who are the highest paid movie actors of 2016? After three years, we have a new king of earners, as Robert Downey Jr., who was the ruler for the last three years, is no longer at the top of the Forbes list, but in the last year he fell by as many as seven places. He was dethroned by the same player as in 2013!
Forbes magazine she revealed who they were highest paid movie actors 2016. There was a change at the top as Robert Downey Jr. earned significantly less in the last year than the previous three years when he was at the top. Not only did he have to say goodbye to the podium, he barely stayed in the top ten. The highest paid movie actor is now a former wrestler Dwayne Johnson – The Rock, which Forbes attributes to him 64.5 million US dollars revenue on an annual basis (estimates revenue between last June and this year, and players must then pay tax on the estimated sum), which is 18.5 million more, as she got the highest paid actress in the world, Jennifer Lawrence, which earned 71 percent of what The Rock brought in with $46 million.
He earned fabulous sums mainly at the expense of comedy Intelligence, a disaster movie The turning point of St. Andrew, so that he won't have to look at every dollar in retirement, the eighth part of the Octane franchise also made sure Fast and Furious, who offered him a double sum compared to the previous part. Behind the 44-year-old muscle man, who almost doubled his last year's earnings, he somewhat surprisingly ranked Jackie Chan, who is known for not keeping his son on a tight leash (after his death, he will donate half of his possessions) and once declared: "If he is able, he will earn his money, but if he is not, he will only waste mine." This year, he enriched his account by 61 million dollars.
If you're wondering how he got his hands on such a sum, given that he didn't even star in any hit movies, most of his money as a prolific actor and producer trickled down to China. He took third place with 55 million Matt Damon, which has a 120 percent increase in earnings compared to the previous year to thank the film The Martian.
