Salaries for the world's highest-paid film actors currently range from US$20–30 million, but an actor can earn substantially more by deferring all or part of their salary against a percentage of the film's gross, known within the industry as a "profit participation" deal.
Highest earnings for a single film
Since not all salaries are made public, this is a non-definitive list of actors who have received $30 million or more as compensation for their services in a single film. The figures are given at their nominal value, since earnings from profit-based deals are accumulated over many years, making it infeasible to adjust for inflation.
Highest annual earnings
Forbes publishes a yearly list of the highest-paid actors based on total earnings from 1 June the previous year to 1 June the current year.
