The 10 most profitable actors in Hollywood

If a few weeks ago we presented you with a list with the least profitable actors, today we go just to the opposite side, and therefore, based on the study of Forbes magazine, we leave you the annual list with the ten actors who have reported the most money to their productions in relation to their salaries.

Its methodology takes into account the last 3 productions of the actor in about the last three years, not counting the small roles. This year the list is headed by Natalie Portman and the Twilight trio take three of the positions.

1. Natalie Portmann. The Natalie Portman films that have been taken into account have been 'Black Swan', 'Without obligation' y 'Knights, princesses and other beasts'. 'Thor' it has been excluded from the account as it has a small role. Even if 'Knights, princesses and other beasts' It failed to earn only half of what was invested in its production (25 of the 50 million dollars of budget), the collection of the other two films is enough for it to top the list. Romantic comedy 'Without obligation' who co-starred with Ashton Kutcher earned $ 150 million investing just $ 25. And 'Megro swan' it swept even more. With a budget of 13 million, it raised 330. Since the actress still does not demand exorbitant salaries, Natalie Portman is the best investment for a movie at the moment. It produced $ 42.70 for each one earned.
2. Kristen Stewart. Another good investment is the vampire Kristen Stewart, who in her latest productions has produced $ 40.60 on average for each one he has earned. The last two films in the twilight saga and 'Snowwhite and the legend of the hunter', They have also served to top the list of the highest paid actresses. 'Dawn Part 1' y 'Dawn Part 2'they have brought in 25 million dollars each. The twilight saga has won in total 3.3 trillions of dollars all over the world and the latest movie is still on the bill.
3. Shia Labeouf. Shia LaBeouf ranked first on this list in 2009 and 2010. This year he has dropped to number 3. Most of the income that gives him the position comes from the saga 'Transformers', but the actor announced that he would not participate in any more sequels. In his last three projects has produced an average of 35. 80 dollars for every dollar it has collected.
4. Robert Pattinson. Robert Pattinson, the vampire who most insists on leaving the teenage saga behind, is ranked number 4 on the list. The actor is below his co-star since the film outside the saga that he has counted for the list has been 'Water for elephants', which did not get to collect the high figures of 'Snow White and the legend of the hunter'. Despite this, the actor continues to be a good investment if we stick to the figures: he produced $ 31.70 for each one he won.
5. Daniel Radcliffe. La saga 'Harry Potter'is the highest grossing film series in history, a total of 7.7 trillions of dollars. The boy wizard has helped Daniel Radcliffe land at number 5 on this list, who, with the saga now over, may find it difficult to get back in. The actor it has produced $ 30.50 on average for each one produced.
6. Taylor Lautner. The third star of Twilight on the list is Taylor Lautner, who he produced $ 29.50 for each one he won. The film outside the saga that enters among the projects counted for this list was 'No Exit', which was a commercial failure compared to the expectations with which it was released.
7. Bradley Cooper. Last year's "sexiest man alive", according to People magazine, ranks number seven on the list. The saga 'Hangover in Las Vegas', with hundreds of millions of collection, it has earned him this position. And there is still one more, so it is possible that we will see him again around here. Bradley Cooper he produced $ 25 for each one he won.
8. Dwayne Johnson (The Rock). La Roca has earned eighth place on this list thanks to 'Fast & Furious 5' y 'Journey to the Center of the Earth 2: The Mysterious Island'. With the number of projects he has on his hands and a sixth of the auto racing franchise, we may still see him on this list. Dwayne johnson produced $ 22.70 for each one he earned in his last three films.
9. Amy Adams. Amy Adams is building a very good reputation in Hollywood thanks to her latest films, such as 'The Muppets', what did he raise 158 million of dollars having invested 45 in its production. But despite the fact that his films are being very successful, his salary continues at lower levels compared to other stars, which allows him to climb positions in this list. In her last three projects, Amy Adams he produced $ 22.60 for each one he won.
10. Kevin James. Kevin James has earned the last position on the list without having told his last film 'Heavyweight', given that it was released after June of this year and therefore does not enter the accounts, and that it only raised 60 million. You may have to drop next year's list if you don't beat the ratings for that movie. At the moment it is ranked number ten with an average of $ 22.40 produced for each earned.
