Dwayne Johnson listed fifth in highest-paid actors chart

Forbes.com published the top list of Hollywood’s highest-paid actors and put Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson in fifth place.

The former WWE champion is estimated to have earned $46 million between June 2012 and June 2013, clearly showing that he doesn’t need money from professional wrestling to make a living!

The list was topped by Robert Downey Jr., with $75 million, followed by Channing Tatum with $60, Hugh Jackman at $55 million, and Mark Wahlberg at $52 million.

Johnson’s move to Hollywood from professional wrestling was seriously questioned back in the early 2000s however he is the only pro wrestler who has turned into a bona fide movie star, as Forbes called him.

This year, The Rock had a movie in the top 10 for 10 weeks in a row with Snitch, G.I. Joe: Retaliation, Pain & Gain, and Fast & Furious 6.
