According to Forbes, the 48-year-old entertainer racked in a whopping $87.5 million from June 1, 2019 to June 1, 2020—making him Hollywood’s highest-paid actor for the second year in a row. He earned $89.4 million in 2019 for big- and small-screen projects including Skyscraper, Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw, and the HBO series Ballers.

Forbes points out that a large chunk of Wayne’s earnings over the last year came from his successful Under Armour line called Project Rock, as well as the Netflix thriller Red Notice, for which he received $23.5 million. But Johnson wasn’t the only actor on the list to secure a high-paying gig with a streaming giant. 

This year’s top 10 highest-paid actors collectively made $545.5 million, with Netflix paying a large portion of that sum. Ryan Reynolds came in at No. 2 with $71 million. He reportedly earned $20 million for Red Notice and another $20 million for the Netflix thriller, 6 Underground. 

Mark Wahlberg took the No. 3 spot with $58 million; Forbes attributes that to his producer credits for McMillions and Wahl Street as well as his role in Netflix’s Spenser Confidential, which became the streamer’s third-most watched original flick. 

Ben Affleck, who starred in Netflix’s 2020 mystery The Last Thing He Wanted, landed at No. 4  with $55 million. Vin Diesel followed with $55 million, most of which came from the Fast & Furious franchise, including the Netflix series Fast & Furious Spy Racers.

Bollywood Akshay Kumar took the No. 6 spot with $48.5 million. Though Forbes reports most of his money comes from endorsements, it notes Kumar recently landed his first TV gig: Amazon Prime’s The End. Lin-Manuel Miranda came in at No. 7 ($45.5 million); Will Smith at No. 8 ($44.5 million); while Adam Sandler and Jackie Chan rounded out the top 10, earning $41 million and $40 million, respectively.

Forbes notes that the estimates are based on a number of sources, including interviews with industry insiders as well as data from Nielsen, IMDB, ComScore, and Box Office Mojo. The outlet did not deduct fees for managers, agents, or attorneys.

Update – Fashion

 KITH and Coca-Cola have presented a fifth collection. Past inspirations have ranged from Hawaiian beaches to a lavish summertime lifestyle in the Hamptons, but this collection goes full Americana by drawing its inspiration from a classic cross-country road trip.

Of course, it wouldn’t truly be a KITH and Coca-Cola collection without a wealth of other collaborative partners, so Converse, Pendleton, Mitchell & Ness and Golden Bear have been tapped for the bubbly festivities as well.

Pieces range from logo-flipped T-shirts to printed shorts, thick sweatshirts and patchwork-style jean jackets — all of which make conspicuous use of KITH and Coca-Cola branding.

From a collaborative standpoint, each third party does what they do best. Converse’s Chuck 70 Ox is done up in three colorways — red/white, cream/red and navy/red — and built of denim with frayed edges. Signature Coca-Cola branding hits the medial side, and medial sides show a recognizable ribbon graphic.

The entire KITH x Coca-Cola collection will release via the KITH webstore at 11 A.M. ET on August 15, with the Converse shoes priced at $140 USD. KITH’s Selfridges and Hirshleifers pop-ins will be the only physical stores in Europe and the US with the collection, and KITH Tokyo will hold an appointment drawing to purchase the collection in-store as well.

If you want to know the truth of who you are, walk until not a person knows your name. Travel is the great leveler, the great teacher, bitter as medicine, crueler than mirror-glass. A long stretch of road will teach you more about yourself than a hundred years of quiet.
