Angelina Jolie and Sarah Jessica Parker Earn $30 Million Per Movie [Top Paid Actresses]

Angelina Jolie and Sarah Jessica Parker get to roll in piles of money every single time they make a movie, earning a guaranteed paycheck of $30 million per movie and in many cases a cut of the films gross earnings.

The big paychecks for Jolie have recently rolled in thanks to the success of her 2010 movie Salt and her Johnny Depp co-starring role in The Tourist which brought in $280 million despite rather weak reviews.

For her part Sarah Jessica Parker turned her starring role in Sex and the City which she also produced into a demanding paycheck for the SATC sequel which grossed $290 million. Parker also doesn’t do bad from her fragrance line which brought in $18 million through fiscal year 2010.

Also topping the Forbes list was Jennifer Aniston, Reese Witherspoon, Julia Roberts, Kristen Stewart, Katherine Heigl, Cameron Diaz, Sandra Bullock and Meryl Streep.
