World's Highest-Paid Actresses 2016: Jennifer Lawrence Sits At The Top Again

For the second year in a row, Jennifer Lawrence is once again the world’s highest-paid actress, notching $46 million pretax over 12 months–$13 million more than second-ranked Melissa McCarthy, who pocketed $33 million.

Lawrence’s impressive earnings consist largely of a profit slice from the big box office gross ($653.4 million) of her final Hunger Games installment and a mammoth upfront fee for the forthcoming Passengers. Her total is down 11.5% from $52 million in 2015, but she remains the girl on fire, financially speaking.

Below is the list of the top 10.

1. Jennifer Lawrence
$46 Million

2. Melissa McCarthy
