Forbes magazine's Top 10 Most Overpaid Actors In Hollywood

Forbes has their new list of the top 10 most overpaid actors in Hollywood. The way they do the ranking is by comparing how many dollars the actor's movie makes for every dollar the actor is paid.

1. Nicole Kidman ($1.00/dollar paid)
2. Jennifer Garner ($3.60/dollar paid)
3. Tom Cruise ($4.00/dollar paid)
4. Cameron Diaz ($4.00/dollar paid)
5. Jennifer Lopez ($4.10/dollar paid)
6. Jim Carrey ($4.11/dollar paid)
7. Nicolas Cage ($4.16/dollar paid)
8. Drew Barrymore ($4.38/dollar paid)
9. Will Farrell ($4.67/dollar paid)
10. Cate Blanchett ($4.97/dollar paid)


So from the above Nicole Kidman's films only make one dollar for every one she's paid, and so on.

Tom Cruise is a surprise considering how many blockbusters he's been in. Carrey stands out too. Although I think the fact that both go for royalty points as well as an upfront premium bumps them up the list.
