The Rock Revealed To Be The Highest Paid Actor In 2024

The Rock cements his name in the history books once again.

Forbes announced today that the 'Final Boss' was 2024's highest paid actor due to his work in Moana 2 and Red One. Their full statement is below.

"The Rock returned to the top of the highest-paid actors list after landing what is believed to be the largest fee-plus-buyout in streaming movie history, an estimated $50 million to star in Amazon's Red One last year. And when Moana 2 pivoted from a TV series to a theatrical release, he negotiated for a percentage of the movie's profits as an executive producer, an unprecedented deal for voice actors in Disney animation. After the movie grossed over $1 billion at the box office, Johnson, 52, made what one agent calls "an ungodly amount of money."

The Rock was recently cast in a film directed by Martin Scorsese, and wrapped filming on A24's Smashing Machine biopic, where he portrays MMA legend Mark Kerr.
