Jennifer took an estimated $52 million, pre-tax, between June, 2014 and June, 2015, giving her the salary edge over DiCaprio and Damon, who are both nominated in the Best Actor category for their roles in The Revenant and The Martian, respectively.
Leonardo, 41, raked in $29 million , while Matt earned $25 million during the same period. The three stars were the only nominees to make the magazine’s list of highest paid actors.
The list, published on Wednesday, comes just months after The Hunger Games star Jennifer attacked Hollywood studio bosses for paying female stars considerably less than men. That fact became apparent during the 2014 Sony database hack, when cyber terrorists released confidential information, including the salaries of stars. Lawrence discovered she was paid significantly less than her male co-stars in American Hustle.
“When the Sony hack happened and I found out how much less I was being paid than the lucky people with d**ks, I didn’t get mad at Sony. I got mad at myself,” she wrote in an essay for friend Lena Dunham’s Lenny Letter newsletter. “I failed as a negotiator because I gave up early. I didn’t want to keep fighting over millions of dollars that, frankly, due to two franchises, I don’t need.”
