Forbes interviewed agents, producers, lawyers, and, we guess, hedge fund managers and bookies, to reach their conclusions. Oh, and taxes, agent fees, and other costs are not deducted from the final amount.
So, like we said, in first place is Sandra Bullock with $51 million.
“Gravity, ” one of the highest grossing movies of 2013, took in $716 million worldwide.
Gwyneth Paltrow is fourth, with $19 million from her role in “Iron Man” and from endorsements with Max Factor and Hugo Boss.
