Highest Paid Actors

Not long ago, we posted something about the highest paid actresses of Hollywood. Now if it were me instead of you, I would be wondering “if this is what the actresses earn, how much would the actors get for their movies?” Well now you don’t have to wait for that any longer, as we present to you the list of the top 5 highest paid actors of the World.

By now we all have established that actors of TV and movie screens are compensated good for their work, but how much that we don’t know. The top 10 consist of 6 Americans and 3 – Amitabh Bachchan, Salman Khan, and Akshay Kumar – all work in Bollywood. But let’s check the top 5 highest paid actors of the World.

Adam Sandler

Highest Paid Actors

Money Earned: $41 million

Upcoming Films: Hotel Transylvania 2, The Ridiculous 6, The Do Over

Pixel may have bit of bomb this summer, but there is no doubt that people still want to see Sandler, his $41 million puts him on the 5th position.

Bradley Cooper

Highest Paid Actors

Money Earned: $41.5 million

Upcoming Films: Burnt, Aloha (just released)

Bradley started off 2015 by American Sniper directed by Clint Eastwood which attracted audiences to theaters, the kind of ones which are lethargic and think of theaters as a waste of money.

Vin Diesel

Highest Paid Actors

Money Earned: $47 million

Highest-Grossing Film: Furious 7 $1.5 billion

Upcoming Films: The Last Witch Hunter, Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk

When your movie earns a massive $1.5 billion at the box office and is in the top five grossing pictures of all time, there is no stopping you from being in the highest paid actors list.

Jackie Chan

Highest Paid Actors

Money Earned: $50 million

Upcoming Films: Kung Fu Panda 3

If you had not already guessed it, Jackie Chan was the mystery character in the list of highest paid actors. Although he is not getting many Hollywood movies but Dragon Blade of his native country did well and earned him $50 million and also the 2nd spot.

Robert Downey Jr.

Highest Paid Actors

Money Earned: $80 million

Upcoming Films: Captain America: Civil War

Robert Downey Jr. has proved himself to be one of the most respected actors of Hollywood. Topping the list for the third consecutive year, and by a wide margin. Not only did he get paid handsomely for his roles in Avengers: Age of Ultron and the upcoming Captain America: Civil War but he also earned a large chunk of change off the backend for Ultron.

Conclusion

Now if I am not wrong, only one of the lady – Jennifer Lawrence – of Hollywood made it into the figures of Men. Now I don’t know what’s up with that but all I have to say is that these ladies have got to upgrade their paygrade.
