What stars are worth?
Who was the most successful actor in 2009? Shia LaBeouf . For every dollar he earned in salary and other assessments, conceded production companies such as DreamWorks 160 U.S. dollars - and yet Transformer: Revenge.
That a good actor not equal a good movie makes - a gift. That they even reduce the profit of the production company, which went to Forbes.com . Ten actors has identified the business magazine, which prevented the profit maximization of the studios. For some it was the disinterest of the audience, the other is poorly negotiated contracts.
The list 100 top stars were selected, whose last three films were shown at least since 2004 in 500 cinemas. To Gage and the shares of box-office, DVD releases and television broadcasts have brought the film budget (not including marketing costs) and the box-office figures, DVD and television reports in relation.
It goes far down
landed on 10th place Jim Carrey, which is really only because of a mishap, "The Number 23" was playing around the world by 77 million U.S. dollars. The next one is on the list Samuel L. Jackson . In supporting roles, he shines only in its leading roles selection proved the busy actor (in the last two years he appeared in seven films) is not a good hand.
Even as a character actor you are not gefeiht before Flopps: 8th place goes to Leonardo di Caprio . Although the success of his recent films like "Revolutionary Road" or "Body of Lies" were moderate - but not his salary checks. For every dollar that he has taken, The production company got only 7.52 U.S. dollars. 7th place goes to the only woman on the list: Drew Barrymore . A very deep hole rips "Lucky You", has taken only 8 million U.S. dollars worldwide. Good for Tom Cruise were his fees in recent years. The films are still flopped at the box office: $ 7.18 with only benefited the producers of the Star.
Slowly we are moving in the basement to the Flopps. At No. 5 is a bustle Ice Cube . He earned compared to the high rollers little, his films flopped anyway. $ 4.77 earned the production companies to him. The last movies with Eddie Murphy were not great Hits at the box office. Despite Dr. Doolittle and the Mad Professor's last films were poorly attended. Probably time for a comeback of the old comedian-master. Perhaps it is indeed something to see Beverly Hills Cop IV
Much was Billy Bob Thornton not in recent years in Germany. No wonder, after the films flopped in America already managed it his concoctions in our part as good as not even to the canvas. 2nd place is a surprise: The Trainspotting and Star Wars hero Ewan McGregor was a bad investment for the production companies. Just 3.75 dollars they benefited, and at 15-million-dollar paychecks.
inglorious winners of this list is Will Ferrell , despite successes such as "Buddy - The Christmas Elf" (220 million dollars worldwide revenue) or "Ricky Bobby - König: The Ballad" (162 million U.S. dollars Box Office). Nevertheless, only unprofitable 3.29 U.S. dollars were used for the production companies around here.
Cheap is always
And why were the films with Shia LaBeouf so successful? First, its low fees as a newcomer. Second, he played with in real big blockbusters: for example, Eagle Eye - Eagle Eye, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull and Transformers. Third, he works hard, keeps a cool head and is fond of promotional work.
are also on other places to find newcomers: James McAvoy ($ 114 return for the production company) and Michael Cera (102 U.S. dollars). Then place could be another young actor: Daniel Radcliffe (93 U.S. dollars) - and for the Harry Potter films. Since he was booked for years to come, it was almost impossible for him to participate in other films, and the production company did not pay especially well. Alone for Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix's, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Warner Bros. took a about 5.3 billion U.S. dollars - and two more Potter is still in the works.
will be the number 5 is the first comeback Robert Downey Jr. ($ 78). With "Tropic Thunder" and "Iron Man" he has restored to the hearts of the audience. After his long drug addiction, he was also a stroke of luck for the cheaper production companies. He is likely to get for "Iron Man 2" more money.
Javier Bardem (73 dollars) is pronounced affinity in terms Arthausproduktionen - and they are cheap. Sun Woody Allen is known for his stinginess (Vicky Cristina Barcelona). Ryan Reynolds also time was cheaper, before he landed on the radar of the audience. To date a real success Bringer for his production company ($ 61).
first number 8 is a "heavyweight": Christian Bale (55 U.S. dollars). He deserves as Batman, John Conner more like other superheroes, but that has done well even Michael Keaton. Another star of "The Dark Knight" has also made it onto the list. Aaron Eckhart (45 U.S. dollars), including "Thank You for Smoking". The fact that he is profitable for the producers, is also that he likes to play along in arthouse films and give up big salary.
The surprise was ranked 10: Dennis Quaid ($ 43) with films such as The Express, Smart People, and eight of view, The unexpected $ 150 million dollars grossed worldwide.
