Highest Paid Actor Earns Millions More Than Highest Paid Actress

The list of the world's highest paid actresses has been revealed, and it's no surprise to see who took top spot.

Jennifer Lawrence banked $52 million for her role as Katniss Everdeen in the latest installment of The Hunger Games franchise. Scarlett Johannsen finished second, earning $35.5 million, having had huge success with the Avengers: The Age of Ultron.

Surprisingly, just like with the list of male actors' salaries, there was a place high on the list for a star we've seen little of in Hollywood. Asian actor Fan Bingbing took fourth spot, earning $21 million, which shows there's still plenty of money to be made outside of the big Hollywood studios.
