It pays to be Marvel’s main man.

Robert Downey Jr. pocketed an estimated $75 million between June 2012 and June 2013, earning him the title of Highest-Paid Actor in Hollywood, this according to Forbes magazine’s annual list.

Downey earned $50 million for “The Avengers†alone, which took home $1.5 billion at the box office and an additional $25 million for “Iron Man 3,†another billion-dollar performer.

Channing Tatum leapfrogged several big names to earn the number two slot, having taken home $60 million in the last 12 months. In addition to “G.I. Joe Retaliation,†Tatum made a killing by self-financing “Magic Mike†with director Steven Soderbergh, so when the $7 million flick made $167 million worldwide, they each earned millions.

The complete top 10:

1. Robert Downey Jr., $75 million

2. Channing Tatum, $60 million

3. Hugh Jackman, $55 million

4. Mark Wahlberg, $52 million

5. Dwayne “The Rock†Johnson, $46 million

6. Leonard Dicaprio, $39 million

7. Adam Sandler, $37 million

8. Tom Cruise $35 million

9. Denzel Washington, $33 million

10. Liam Neeson, $32 million

Don't think there's any real shockers on this list, maybe Wahlberg being that high.

Expected Wahlberg to be higher tbh, has his fingers in a lot of pies and basically produces everything on HBO.

Denzel has lost his spark now, seems to be just another old man whore like De Niro, taking any job without reading scripsts.

Kind of surprised to see Cruise on the list. Didn't think his latest stuff did that well.

Thought that Seth MacFarlane might have been on there thanks to Ted making him a huge amount of money plus all the animation shows he had. Does this list just take into account their earnings from film or from everything they do?

The Rock continues to make a killing, cashing in whilst he is hot and he is smart for doing so. Nice to see Jackman up there, always nice seeing an Australian, and a nice one at that, do well.

How did Neeson make $32 million?

Downey Jnr. really...I dont get the love for him. Yet to see him in a good movie, the Iron Man movies blow monkey anus.
