These are the world’s highest-paid actresses of 2018.
According to ‘Forbes,’ these actresses had a total earning of $186 million before fees and taxes. This year, only two women surpassed $20 million.
The magazine noted that only 28.7% of all speaking roles are given to female characters. So while these dollar signs are high, especially for regular people like us, there’s still not only an income gap between male and female actors, but a major gap in what roles they get in the first place. Come on, Hollywood, you patriarchal old buffoon.
Watch to find out who made the highest-paid actresses list and let us know your thoughts. Were you surprised about that Scarlett Johansson figure? That’s a lotta cash.
