Forbes: No Actor Is As Rich As ‘The Rock’ Dwayne Johnson

The Rock topped the list of the world’s highest-grossing actors, including 5 from Marvel Cinematic Johnson, who is currently on the big screen in the “Fast and Furious” spin-off “Hobbs and Shaw,” grossed $ 89.4 million within June 1, 2018, and June 1, 2019. Johnson rose from the second. place, earning less last year.

Johnson earned $ 124 million between June 2017 and June 2018, the most anyone had ever earned primarily acting in the history of Forbes’ Celebrity 100 list. George Clooney topped the list of highest-grossing actors last year with $ 239 million due to the sale of his tequila company, Casamigos, but failed to make the top 10 this year.

This year’s roster also includes five artists from the Marvel Cinematic Universe: Chris Hemsworth (Thor), Robert Downey Jr. (Iron Man), Bradley Cooper (voice of Rocket), Chris Evans (Captain America) and Paul Rudd (Ant-Man).

Adam Sandler also thanked the Top 10 for his deal with Netflix for several movies, one of which was “Murder Mystery” released this year. Netflix said in July that 73 million families watched the movie.
