The Highest Paid Men In Hollywood 2008

By Peter Sciretta/July 15, 2009 5:18 pm EST

A couple weeks ago Forbes revealed their yealy list of the top earning women in Hollywood, which revealed the unsurprising statistic that Harrison Ford earned almost two and a half times more than the top earning actress (Angelina Jolie). Forbes Magazine has now published their listing of Hollywood’s highest-paid men and guess who made the most amount of money in 2008….

The answer is George Lucas. The Forbes list includes musicians like Bruce Springsteen ($70m) and Kenny Chesney ($65m) and tv and radio personalities like Howard Stern ($70m), Simon Cowell ($75m) and Dr. Phil ($80m), none of which I really consider “Hollywood,” so I’ve excluded them from the listing below.

  1. George Lucas – $170 million
  2. Steven Spielberg – $150 million
  3. Jerry Bruckheimer – $100 million
  4. Jerry Seinfeld – $85 million
  5. Tyler Perry – $75 million
  6. Dick Wolf – $75 million
  7. Harrison Ford – $65 million
  8. Adam Sandler – $65 million
  9. Larry David – $55 million Check out the full listing on Forbes.com.
