2023 has become a historic year for cinema. After the slump in the post-pandemic rooms, came the ‘Barbenheimer’ phenomenon, a true revolution with the release of ‘Barbie’ and ‘Oppenheimer’, reaching box office records that had not been achieved for years. Thanks to such a push, it might seem that its actors were the highest paid in 2023 in Hollywood, but the truth is that, although some of them are on the list, the highest paid performer is not related to this phenomenon. If it’s not Cillian Murphy, Margot Robbie, or Ryan Gosling, who leads the ranking?
‘Barbenheimer’, the box office duel that sweeps the networks
Although ‘Barbie’ y ‘Oppenheimer’ have occupied a large part of the cinematographic conversation, the box office has also been kind to other productions such as ‘Fast and Furious ‘ or ‘Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny’. However, the highest-paid actor of 2023 does not appear in any of them.
Which actor made the most in 2023?
According to Forbes, the person who pocketed the most money in 2023 was Adam Sandlerand not because of the movie theaters, but thanks to Netflix, because during the first half of 2023 the platform’s subscribers watched more than 500 million hours with content starring the actor, so they decided to compensate him. Thanks to films like ‘Leo’ or ‘Criminals in Sight’ he has pocketed a total of 73 million dollars.

If it weren’t for Sandler’s synergy with Netflix, the gold would have gone to him Margot Robbieleading actress and producer of ‘Barbie’, which raised 1.5 billion, allowing the 33-year-old Australian pocket 60 million dollars. Your case is particular, since it is the youngest in the rankingthe next one takes a decade and the average of the rest is over 50 years old. That is, he is placed above actors with a longer career, who earn more money through residuals and, therefore, equals caches of stars with decades of experience behind them.
Third place goes to Tom Cruisewhich thanks to the latest installment of the ‘Mission Impossible’ saga has managed to enter some 45 million dollars, ensuring him to once again remain among the highest-paid performers in the industry. The top five close it Ryan Goslingpartly thanks to ‘Barbie’, and Matt Damonwhich was part of ‘Oppenheimer’, both with 43 million dollars.

What will happen in 2024?
With ‘Dune: Part Two’, ‘Ferrari’, ‘Deadpool 3’, ‘Joker: Folie a Deux’ and ‘Gladiator 2’ among the most notable films of 2024 and with casts that include Hugh Jackman, Ryan Reynolds, Joaquin Phoenix, Lady Gaga, Pedro Pascal, Denzel Washington, Penélope Cruz, Adam Driver, Timothée Chalamet, Zendaya or Rebecca Ferguson dancing at the highest paid in 2024 can vary a lot. Of course, not everything has to be trusted to the theaters, because just by looking at the 2023 ranking you can already sense how the audiences on digital platforms have a great impact on the salaries of Hollywood actors. Nor in the box office, since in the current ranking there is no in the wake of Cillian Murphy or Robert Downey Jr., protagonists of ‘Oppenheimer’ who have swept the awards season and are Oscar favorites in their respective categories.
