Which Hollywood star made the most money?... Men are twice as much as women

As the Avengers Endgame broke the world's best box office record, the actors who appeared in the movie also increased their income. This is because some of the money earned from the box office is paid to the major actors. As a result of a survey of 10 male and female actors who earned the most money in the world for a year from June last year to June this year, six of them were identified as actors in the Avengers.

Dwayne Johnson's Most Profitable Movie Actor

So, was the most earned movie star during this period one of the Avengers casts? According to Forbes, Dwayne Johnson was the most paid actor in the past year. Dwayne Johnson earned 89.4 million dollars or 107.2 billion won over the past year from appearances and other income for <Fast and Furious> and <Jumanji>, making it the number one Hollywood star who earned the most money among male and female movie stars. I put up my name.

Forbes, a former professional wrestler, Dwayne Johnson received $23.5 million in advance payments for <Jumanji the Next Level>, which is scheduled to be released this year, and is signed to receive an additional 15% of the total box office income. He said he has established himself as the highest income actor in Hollywood.

Chris Hemsworth, famous for his role as Thor in the Avengers, is the second-largest male actor. Hemsworth was estimated to have earned 76.4 million dollars last year, or about 91.6 billion won. Another hero of the Avengers, Iron Man's Robert Downey Jr., also ranked third with a record of $66 million or about 79 billion won. Bradley Cooper, who recorded the voice of the Rocket in the Avengers Endgame, Chris Evans of Captain America, and Paul Rudd of Ant Man, ranked 6th, 7th, and 9th respectively, making the Avengers Legion 5 out of the top 10 male actors' income. Won people.

Most of Bradley Cooper's income came from the film A Star Is Born, starring Lady Gaga while directing himself. He earned 70% of his income through the birth of a star, and voice dubbing of Avengers Endgame is estimated to be 10% of his total income. It is quite rare in Hollywood to make money through screenplay, director, and appearance.

Two male actors who are not American nationals include Akshay Kumar from India and Jackie Chan from Hong Kong. Indian Bollywood top star Kumar was the lead actor in India's first space movie'Mission Manga' (2019), and earned $65 million during this period, ranking fourth. Hong Kong action movie star Sung-ryong (Jackie Chan) Ranked 5th.

Black Widow Scarlett Johansson Top Income Actress

The effect of the Avengers Corps was clearly reflected in the income rankings of female actors. Scarlett Johansson, who played the role of Black Widow in the Avengers, has been named the most earning actress of the year. According to Forbes, Scarlett Johansson earned about $56 million or about 66.2 billion won. Johansson succeeded in securing the No. 1 position for the second consecutive year, ranking first in the most paid actress last year.


Johansson earned $35 million in the Avengers Endgame, which set the world's best box office record, and is said to be guaranteed at least $10 million in advances for future films. Sofia Vergara, who earned 44.1 million dollars, or 52.9 billion won, took the second place, and Reese Witherspoon was named in third place.

Top 10 male and female actors double the income gap

Interestingly, there is an income gap between male and female actors in Hollywood stars' income. The combined income of the ten male actors is $588.3 million, or about 760 billion won, which is nearly twice the total income of the top 10 women, $34.6 million, or about 37 billion won. Scarlett Johansson, who earned the most money among female actors, earned $56 million less than Adam Sandler, who ranked seventh among male actors. Adam Sandler is estimated to have earned $57 million over the past year.

Excluding the two, Scarlett Johansson and Sophia Bergara, the rest of the actresses were counted to have earned between $20 million and $30 million, confirming that there is a large income gap between men and women even among Hollywood stars. In fact, if you look at the income ranking of the top 100 celebrities (singers, movie stars, sports stars, etc.) that Forbes surveyed and released last month, 16 out of the total 100 were women.

Among the 100 top earners of famous celebrities, 11 actors were included, of which only two were actresses. Among the top-income celebrities, the profession that includes the most women was singer, which was counted as 9 out of 38.

Forbes said that the income survey period for male and female actors was for one year from June 1, 2018 to June 1, 2019, and was estimated through data from Nielsen Research, Box Office Mojo, and interviews with industry officials. Estimated income is the sum of all pre-tax income, not including agency fees, manager and lawyer fees, etc
