Johnny Depp tops Forbes list of most overpaid Hollywood actors
Johnny Depp is Hollywood’s most overpaid actor for the second year in a row, according to Forbes.
The Pirates of the Caribbean star topped the list following his box office flop Alice Through The Looking Glass, the magazine said.
Depp brought in just $2.80 at the box office for every dollar he was paid for his last three films before June. The magazine discounted animated films from the list, as well as movies where actors had an insignificant role or where they were released in fewer than 2,000 cinemas.
While Will Smith ranked second on the Forbes list, returning just $5 for every dollar he earned following the release of Concussion and Focus.
Depp is set to appear in another big budget film, Pirates Of The Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales, which is due to be released in May.
