  • Brad Pitt – $41 million for the film 'F1'

Leonardo DiCaprio experienced his worst-paid year in the last 15 years, while Kevin Hart, Adam Sandler, and Millie Bobby Brown continue to receive guaranteed fees regardless of their films' box office performance.

Additionally, Sydney Sweeney earned $7 million, and Glen Powell took home $10 million. Timothée Chalamet and Michael B. Jordan are each expected to earn around $20 million for their upcoming projects. Zendaya is preparing four films and a sequel to the series 'Euphoria,' slated for release in 2026.

Forbes also announced the world's richest celebrity for 2026, whose net worth exceeds $7 billion. This ranking once again underscores shifting financial dynamics in Hollywood and current trends within the entertainment industry.

The drop in actor earnings may signal changes in demand for film content and economic fluctuations affecting the entertainment sector. Guaranteed fees for certain stars suggest that producers are seeking to reduce risks tied to film financing.
