As we get closer and closer to turn this year’s page, how about we take a look into a top 10 list of the actors that turned out to have the best ROI (Return On Investment) for Hollywood studios. Forbes has decided to compile the following ranking list and having in mind we had several blockbusters throughout 2013, they’ve set the accounting criteria to the last 3 movies/films each actor has starred in.
The first 4 spots are all taken by women, an evidence that can be explained with the fact that men are usually still better paid than women. It’s also important to note that the 3 variables taken into consideration to build these rankings were:
– How much the actor was paid for performing in the movie
– How much the movie made through box office revenues.
– How much the movie made through DVD/Blu-Ray rentals.
