Yeah, she should be smiling. According to the Hollywood Reporter, Reese Witherspoon is the highest paid actress in Hollywood, with Angelina close behind.
1. Reese Witherspoon — $15 million-$20 million
2. Angelina Jolie — $15 million-$20 million (only $8 million for Beowulf)
3. Cameron Diaz — $15+ million
4. Nicole Kidman — $10 million-$15 million
5. Renee Zellweger — $10 million-$15 million
6. Sandra Bullock — $10 million-$15 million
7. Julia Roberts — $10 million-$15 million
8. Drew Barrymore — $10 million-$12 million
9. Jodie Foster — $10 million-$12 million
10. Halle Berry — $10 million
Although it seems that the actresses salaries have been going up within the last couple of years, the article states that some actresses will do a “no-quote” deals, meanining “don’t tell anyone I’m working this cheap,” in order to keep working. It seems that a lot of these women are doing these types of deals. I mean we haven’t seen any big hits from Drew Barrymore, Halle Berry, or Nicole Kidman in a while. I understand Jodie Foster being up there. At least you know when she makes a movie it will actually make some money.
The article also notes that newcomers on the rise in the paycheck stakes include Jennifer Garner, Rachel McAdams, and Katherine Heigl.
