The Top 10 Current Highest Paid Hollywood Actors and Actresses From Mark Wahlberg to The Rock, these celebs got the biggest paychecks last year.

Actors and actresses make some of the highest salaries in the entertainment industry, especially if you're someone like Marky Mark or The Rock.

And while Emma Stone, Jennifer Aniston, Jennifer Lawrence and Emma Watson topped last year's list of the highest paid actresses in Hollywood, their salaries were not quite comparable to that of their male counterparts. For instance, Stone, dubbed the highest paid female actress, made $26 million, which wasn't even close to the salaries of any of the top 10 actors'. In total, the salaries of the highest paid actresses in Hollywood was $172.5 combined, or about a third of what the men made.

Despite the major gender pay gap, many of these highly paid stars were featured in high-budget action-packed franchise movies like Marvel's Thor and The Fast and the Furious. Watson's role as Belle in Beauty and the Beast, which made over $1 billion in box offices worldwide, helped land her on this year's list. And Melissa McCarthy's Emmy-winning Sean Spicer performance for SNL might have attributed to her success.

Thanks to his work in Ballers, The Fate of the Furious, Baywatch and his upcoming action-packed film Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, in one year, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson raked in a mere $65 million, placing him as the second-highest-paid actor of 207.

Vin Diesel, $54.4 million

While he starred in movies both onscreen and offscreen last year, Vin Diesel was a voice-over actor in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 and the leading character, Xander Cage, in xXx: Return of Xander Cage.
