Johnny Depp | $150 Million

Johnny Depp is one of the most profitable actors that Captain Jack Sparrow would be envious of.The quirky actor battled his way to superstardom with his debut as a fated teen in 1984’s Nightmare on Elm Street. That spooky movie, however, was only the beginning. Depp gained significant acclaim for his performance of Edward Scissorhands, showcasing his ability to portray darker characters.

He worked with Burton again in 1999 for Sleepy Hollow, again in 2005 for Burton’s adaptation of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and again in 2007 for Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street. However, his most prominent on-screen role would surely be at sea. While Depp’s net worth has reportedly decreased, no one would be remiss to believe or suggest that he would need loans these days. Even if he earns $20 million every film, $150 million is still a significant figure that most performers could only dream of.
