Ka-ching!
Reese Witherspoon, 31, who earns between $15-$20 million a movie, has topped The Hollywood Reporter's annual list of the highest-paid actresses.
Angelina Jolie, 32, comes in second, with a similar paycheck, though she only took home $8 million for Beowulf.
Third place: Cameron Diaz, 35, who cashes in about $15 million a flick. However, she banked $30 million for the third installment of Shrek this year.
After a string of flops — including this summer's The Invasion — Nicole Kidman, 40, dropped two spots and now commands $10-$15 million a film.
Renée Zellweger, 38, and Sandra Bullock, 43, also take home $10-$15 million, as does one-time box office champ Julia Roberts, 40 — who returns to the big screen in December's Charlie Wilson’s War.
Rounding out the list: Drew Barrymore, 32 and Jodie Foster, 45, who make $10- $12 million per movie and the five-months-pregnant Halle Berry, 41, who nets about $10 million.
The salary list appears in The Hollywood Reporter's "Women in Entertainment: Power 100" issue is out Tuesday.
Tell Us: Do you think Reese is worth $20 million a movie?

I am just a bit curious...Her profile was found on millionaire dating site BillionaireCupid.com last week.
1:19, have you completed elementary school?
Only one person in Hollywood Angelina Jolie gives 1/3 of all her movie proceeds. She is very kind and young. and no does this. We all should admire her. she is a role model. We should see what she does in the world instead of criticize her. She is best actrees she should total deserves NO1 not 2.
Angelina Jolie she is best actress, we like her movie than anyone.
I think Reese is kind of one-note. She was not good in Rendition and she pretty much seemed like herself in WTL, JLH, SHA. I don't think she is a great actress. She is a "movie star". None of them are worth that money.
Love them both. Some of you are so strange--seething in total hatred for someone you don't know--you sound like ugly people!
When is St. John gonna wake up to the fact that Holie is using them for this strange image change she undertook after meeting Brad?
She has even stripped naked in the past, during photo sessions, saying she hates fashion.
And what is with all the image change as soon as she hooked up with Pitt? It is odd. Does he get woman to change?
Do they have some political agenda and that is why the image change.
Brad is wearing out this "no more nude scenes" thing. He said it before. He and holie have been planning a run for office since they first met.
It also explains her lying and saying Z mother died of Aids. While she may have thought the mother dead, she knew a kid cannot be adopted without being cleared of AIDS, if it is a foreign adoption. SHe used her kid to help promote herself as an AIDS advocate. SICK!!
And the political agenda may also explain the propping the kids up with Newsweek Mags all the time.
Anytime anyone starts to point this out Brange and thier fans blame Aniston. They love assuming that the only reason anyone would critize them is because of Jen fans coming to her defense. Jen moved on long ago and many, like myself, who hate holie are NOT fans of aniston.
Can I just say to RWoman...
ROCK ON!!!!!!!!!!!! You are so awesome!
1:27, you're right in that I doubt Angelina is adopting for publicity reasons, that's alot to take on just for that ! However, you can be a "wonderful person" without adopting 3 children. That's not a choice that's right for everyone. I don't have adopted children, mine are biological, but I feel I contribute quite a bit. I'm an advocate for Autism and I work with children who have disabilities like Autism and Downs. I'm certainly not calling myself a "wonderful" person, but, I'm not a loser by any means. Not to mention, what these actresses do in their personal lives shouldn't influence they're paycheck for acting. And on top of that, what your paycheck says doesn't always define your level of "success".
What does adopting kids have to do with being a good
actress? What does donating money have to do with it?
In the long run they will be paid as long as their movies
bring the studio money, when they don't they are gone.
None of the actresses on the list have had a really good
movie this year except for Sherk 3. Julia hasn't made
one for three years. Most of their movies cost more to
make than they made. When the budget don't balance any
more, it's time to do something else.
Actually I think Julia Roberts and Sandra Bullock are the
best of the bunch. I really don't care for any of the
others and don't go see their movies. I usually only go
if it is a story line that I like.
if reese is such a wonderful person...why doesn't she adopt lets say hmmmm...3 children from all parts of the world...oh wait its angeling that welcomes needy children into her life. The people who believe that angelina is adopting for publicity reasons...18 years is a long time.
Yes, 2:17, and as humbling as working at Wal-Mart or living in a trailor would be, those individuals, especially those working, would deserve a certain amount of respect that you can not acquire.
2.17 anyone who truly does have that kind of disposable cash would not talk like you unless you by chance came upon it by winning the lotto. otherwise, you would know better than to brag about such things, unless of course you were 14
2:20, you're absolutely right. I fall into a high tax bracket and I "donate" forcibly enough.
2:17, I doubt what you're saying is true, but if it is, that's horrible. Yes, some people would probably be jealous, although that's not my take. I would actually feel sorry for you to a degree, because if that's what your life is, you have no chance of developing a sense of appreciation or self-respect. You're just a sloth. And I'm sure you'll come back with some dull, numb comment and use a classy worth like biatch, but it's the truth.
Reese totally deserves this... Angelina... isn't she like bisexual or something? that is just messup up. Althought she is dating Brad Pitt. Who is always sexy no matter what. Whatever Reese-Beautiful Angelina-Not so much. Reese deserves this.
I don't go to see movies because of who is in them. If I like the idea of the story or something about the movie intrigues me then I spend my money.
IMO none of them are worth that much money. They should all get paid a flat fee and then a % of what the movie actually takes in at the boxoffice.
That would be the way to actually run a business but Hollywood is so stupid they think if they pay Reese Witherspoon $20 million dollers we'll all go running to see a crappy movie.
Good for Reese! I think she is the best actress ever. Way to go!
Reese is a much better actress.
Aren't we all just saints here.
Oh let me post my good deed. I saved a beautiful kitty, and unlike Ellan with her dog I kept it. Yay, lets all pat eachothers backs.
I don't recall telling you what I do for a living or what I have in my bank account so I don't know where you get off making your assumptions that I work at Walmart or live in a trailer park which to me is insulting to those that do work there or live there because at least they work and have a home. Believe me honey you are making yourself look like an idiot.
As for the 2:20 comment (which by the way I never judged) I donate to a variety of thing's including but not limited to PETA, Defenders of Wildlife, March of Dimes and United Way. So I do my part where I see fit. I don't go around searching for thing's to donate to but if the opportunity present's itself and I feel it's a worthy cause I donate.
I'm sorry Thelma but aren't you doing the same thing that you are criticizing everyone else for? they are right, you only know Angelina from the tabloids and we are all entitled to our opinion. Sitting on this website responding to all the insults....Wouldn't that make you a HYPOCRITE ????
Thelma,
I think anyone who is a taxpayer does donate in a sense. Where do you think the money comes from that pays for medicaid, food stamps, welfare? we do our part and I'm sure if I were making millions to make a movie, I would do alot more, but I have a family of my own to support and I always donate to food pantrys, Salvation Army, we do adopt a family at work. So you shouldn't judge, what is it that you do? I'm sure you don't donate 1/3 of your paycheck.
YEP, I DO have all that money to donate. Notice Im playing on a computer all day, I don't have to work for the man, I'm independly wealthy. If I choose to look at gossip/walk my dog/sleep till noon/shop on Madison - I can do all these things, YOU CAN'T. Now who's jealous? Still feeling the need to put me down to make your trailer park lifestyle seem worthy?
Oh yeah - Walmart called. You're late to work AGAIN.
I believe Jennifer does get more rolls then Angelina. I love Jen's movies, hate Angelina's, Seriously !!
Reese is a wonderful actress and definitely just as good as anyone else, but, no one deserves 20 million for anything they do. Unless you discover a cure for cancer, if you're making that, you're making too much. And in the whole scheme of things, what actors and actresses actually do, is so insignificant.
1:44 and 1:47 are Arkansas (Unlock the caps key, dimwit). Reese is still a great actress.
Wow to have all that money you say you donate you sure do have a whole lot of time to sit around and examine every little detail...Must be those government checks you are collecting while sitting at home acting like you can't work. You my dear are the idiot, oh and one more thing. Learn how to spell. :-)
O, I CAN SEE WHO WILL HAVE THE FIRST RED ARSE IN THE HOUSE. GET OVER HERE, AND TAKE YOUR SPANKING LIKE A GOOD BOY/GIRL/THING? SHOULD I USE MY HAND OR WOULD YOU PREFER THE BELT?
