Anne Hathaway – Approximately $10 Million Per Movie

If we were to ask Anne Hathaway what inspired her to become an actress, all the honor would surely go to her mother. After seeing her mother perform as Fantine in Les Misérables, Anne developed a love for the stage. Soon after, she began her acting career and eventually received widespread recognition for her film debut, The Princess Diaries.

Although her paycheck in The Princess Diaries was only $400,000, the actress has since earned a higher salary for her more recent works. For Get Smart, Anne received an impressive $5 million, the same amount she got for Bride Wars. The actress’ highest profit so far, however, is for her award-winning performance in the film adaptation of Les Misérables, which earned her $10 million. With the actress already set to work on more projects, it’s safe to say she and her family won’t be worrying about personal loans anytime soon.
