One thing a lot of the men have in common, Johnson included, is Netflix. Many of them have signed very lucrative deals with the popular streaming platform -- some that reportedly carried an eight-figure paycheck.

The list appears to be more diverse than Forbes' 2019 highest-paid actors list, which had six white actors landing in the top ten earners in Hollywood.

Many names on the 2020 list have also made the list of highest-paid actors several times before.

Here are the Top 10 highest-paid actors of 2020:

  1. 1. Dwayne \"The Rock\" Johnson: $87.5 million
  2. 2. Ryan Reynolds: $71.5 million
  3. 3. Mark Wahlberg: $58 million
  4. 4. Ben Affleck: $55 million
  5. 5. Vin Diesel: $54 million
  6. 6. Akshay Kumar: $48.5 million
  7. 7. Lin-Manuel Miranda: $45.5 million
  8. 8. Will Smith: $44.5 million
  9. 9. Adam Sandler: $41 million
  10. 10. Jackie Chan: $40 million
