Earlier this year, Emma Stone, starring in the film "Battle of the Sexes," spoke out about gender inequality in Hollywood, pointing out that her male colleagues are mostly paid much more than actresses. As a result, some actors of the picture asked to cut their salaries, as they considered it fair.
Jennifer Aniston, who took second place in the list, starred in five films over the year, including "Yellow Birds", "Girls Burn" and "Storks". In addition, the actress still receives deductions for the popular TV series "Friends", which ended 13 years ago. Aniston also stars in commercials for Emirates Airlines, Smartwater and Aveeno cosmetics brand.
Jennifer Lawrence, who reigned in the first place for the last two years, was in third place, earning $ 24 million — almost half of her last year's profit of $ 46 million. The actress received most of the money by starring in Darren Aronofsky's film "Mom!", which will be released in September, and in the film "Red Sparrow". Lawrence also has a long-term contract with Dior.
Emma Watson first appeared on the list of highly paid actresses after the film "Beauty and the Beast" became the highest-grossing film of the year, grossing $ 1.26 billion.
When compiling the rating, Forbes estimated the income received by the actors in the period from June 1, 2016 to June 1, 2017. The calculation is based on data from the sociological company Nielsen and the websites Box Office Mojo and IMDb, which track box office receipts from film distribution, as well as data from interviews with agents, managers, lawyers and the stars themselves.
The top 10 highest-paid actresses also included comedian Melissa McCarthy ($18 million), Mila Kunis ($15.5 million), Emma Watson ($14 million), Charlize Theron ($14 million), Cate Blanchett ($12 million), Julia Roberts ($12 million) and Amy Adams (11.5 million).
