[Browny]

The Rock - always working.

 

[Friggz]

[Nazgul_Hunter]

Why is Jennifer Aniston on this list?

Residuals? Friends did get sold to Netflix last year?

 

[explodet]

Wow, SRK is pulling in RDJ-money.

 

[gamz]

Chan makes that much?!? Holy shit!

 

[OldMan]

Good for the Rock, I know a lot of ppl gave him shit for leaving the WWE to pursue movies and its 2016 and he's the highest paid actor

 

[kiguel182]

That discrepancy between male and female is something else..

Also, congrats to The Rock. He worked his ass off and seems like a great dude.

 

[Unain]

The Rock - always working.

I respect his work ethic. The man is a machine!

 

[snacknuts]

Why is Jennifer Aniston on this list?

Because she was the 4th-highest paid female actress.

 

[sunshine and gasoline]

Didn't expect to see Shah Rukh Khan and Akshay Kumar on there but I really shouldn't be surprised.

 

[jelly]

well thats where the 60 mil came from....guy has a networth of almost 2 billion. wtf.

2 billion!

How.

I would have thought Hatrison Ford would make bank from Star Wars, didn't he get a percentage pay from Force Awakens.

 

[RBelong2Us]

Chan is in a ton of movies, this is a world list not just american movies.

 

[Twenty7KVN]

It's cray most of the females actors won't make the top ten male list.

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

well thats where the 60 mil came from....guy has a networth of almost 2 billion. wtf.

He also did a couple of other movies to this year over in China I think.

 

[gamz]

well thats where the 60 mil came from....guy has a networth of almost 2 billion. wtf.

[RBelong2Us]

Chan did not get 60m to voice in Kung Fu Panda...lol, come on now.

 

[Slayven]

Jackie Chan made $61 million last year? Was he in any movies?

[ViewtifulJC]

Jennifer Aniston still collecting checks???

 

[daemonic]

The discrepancy between actors and actresses is huge. Scarlett Johansson ranking at number 3 wouldn't even make the top 10 list for actors.

 

[Sir_Crocodile]

How is Jackie chan in the list? What movie has he made recently?
Another drunk master please.

domestic market stuff like Dragon Blade, made ten mill from that.

 

[Familienoberhauptvogel]

Doesn't Jackie Chan have his own production firm in China?

 

[kswiston]

The biggest earners on that list are making a lot from producing as well.

 

[RBelong2Us]

Ahhh...from 2015 but...


http://www.forbes.com/sites/zackoma...orlds-second-highest-paid-actor/#45ddd762947f

no, im.saying regardless of how much he made this year and last Kung Fu Panda has little to do with that. He gets a ton starring in other movies that never make it to america.

 

[Anth0ny]

ROCKY ROCKY ROCKY

 

[cw_sasuke]

Kinda expected Kevin Hart to pop up somewhere since he is like in every movie lol.

well thats where the 60 mil came from....guy has a networth of almost 2 billion. wtf.

Holy shit... I didn't know know he was this loaded.

 

[gamz]

That's why I posted the article.

 

[Jumeira]

[Byakuya769]

Is the male/female gap slowly closing?

Jennifer Aniston still collecting checks???

Haha.. bright side, it's good to see women being able to hold on into their "old age" instead of being dumped after they turn 25. Someday, maybe movies won't continue pairing 50 year old male actors with 21 year old female actors.

 

[kswiston]

For real I haven't seen a Jackie chan movie in forever

This film just made $130M in China
