An obligatory passage, this top 10 acts as a retrospective of the past year as much as a revealer of new trends, not yet completely #Me Too compatible nonetheless.
Thus, only two women slip into this ranking.
Margot Robbie in second place, with 59 million dollars (54 million euros), thanks to
Barbie
but also to
Saltburn
the film she produced for Amazon Prime.
Then Jennifer Aniston, in 6th place with 42 million dollars (or 38 million euros) thanks to the Apple TV series
The Morning Show
and the Netflix film
Murder Mystery 2
.
Furthermore, this ranking is almost exclusively American, with the notable exception of Margot Robbie.
The big winner is a little surprise, Adam Sandler, for whom his contract with Netflix has been particularly fruitful:
Murder Myster 2,
as well as three stand-up shows, earned him a whopping $73 million (€66 million). euros).
The third on the list is a regular: Tom Cruise, who earned $45 million, or 41 million euros, for the latest opus to date of
Mission Impossible
and
Top Gun: Maverick
released in 2022 but for which he continues to earn income.
Shaped Platforms
Note: the strengthening of the weight of streaming platforms in this ranking.
In addition to Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston, Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, in 4th and 9th positions, hit a jackpot thanks to Amazon and the film
Air
, with respectively 42 and 38 million dollars.
Leonardo DiCaprio is, at 49 years old, an actor with such fame that a film can be made solely on his name, and if Martin Scorsese oversees the whole thing, it's a guaranteed jackpot.
This is the winning recipe that Apple TV has undertaken with
Killers of the Flower Moon
, released in cinemas in France but exclusively on the platform throughout the world.
The one who plays Ernest Burkahrt thus pocketed 41 million dollars just from this feature film.
Subscribers
Ryan Gosling is fourth on the list, with $42 million for
Barbie
.
In addition to his cachet, the one who is nominated for an Oscar for best supporting actor is also the lucky recipient of the rights to the hit
I'm Just Ken
, which has more than 100 million plays on Spotify.
Something to see coming.
Another actor who is a regular in this ranking: Jason Statham, with comedies and action films.
This time, it is with the help of three films that it comes in 7th place with 41 million dollars:
Fast X
,
Meg 2: The Trench
and
Expend4bles
.
Finally, last place goes to the eternal Denzel Washington: 24 million dollars thanks to the box office of the third opus of
Equalizer
.
A ranking which reflects a related reality: cinema remains profitable, but sometimes relies heavily on its headliners.
