Daniel Craig Leads List of Highest Movie Star Salaries

English actor Daniel Craig topped Wednesday Variety's list of the biggest movie star salaries with $100 million.

The list features 17 of the highest recent film star salaries and includes other A-listers such as Dwayne Johnson, Will Smith, and Denzel Washington earning sky-high payments in the mid-eight-figures.

Meanwhile, Jennifer Lawrence and Julia Roberts tied for the highest-paid female actresses.

In March, Craig was paid $100 million to return for "Knives Out" sequels that will premiere on Netflix while Johnson inked a $50 million deal to produce and star in Amazon's action movie "Red One".
