Hollywood’s highest paid actors and actresses: Daniel Craig and Jennifer Lawrence top the list

Following Craig is Dwayne Johnson (Jungle cruise), aka The Rock, who has earned $ 50 million for Red One, an Amazon Christmas movie.

The specialized magazine of the film and series industry, Variety, carried out an investigation on the highest paid actors and actresses in Hollywood.

Daniel Craig is at the top of the ranking thanks to the sequels of Entre Navajas and Secretos de Netflix. The actor, who we will see again soon as James Bond in No Time to Die, has charged $ 100 million to return as Detective Benoit Blanc.

Following Craig is Dwayne Johnson (Jungle cruise), aka The Rock, who has earned $ 50 million for Red One, an Amazon Christmas movie.

Will Smith and Denzel Washington are next. Smith will soon release King Richard, about the father of tennis players Serena and Venus Williams, and Washington starred in the crime thriller Little Secrets. Both charged 40 million dollars for each of the projects. In this case, Variety said, the salary includes a bonus for the earnings the film would have made if it had only been released in theaters.

Jennifer Lawrence, the first actress to appear on the list, at # 7, for the $ 25 million she earned for her starring role in Don’t Look Up. Her partner in the film, Leonardo Di Caprio, earned $ 30 million.

In terms of series, ‘The terminal list’, a thriller in which Chris Pratt plays the US Navy SEAL, made him the best payment in the streaming bubble, as the specialized press calls it.

The actor will receive 1.4 million per episode and will star in a total of eight. The Amazon Prime Video and MRC co-production was the brainchild of Pratt himself, who bought the rights to the book they were inspired by, and thus became a producer of the content.
