This allows the ex-wrestler to far outstrip his direct competitor, namely Ryan Reynolds who still raised $ 71.5 million this year. The star of Deadpool is also in the cast of Red Notice .
Thanks Netflix
In third position, we find Mark Wahlberg with a gain of $ 58 million all the same. A good sum that he owes in large part to the success of Spenser Confidential , the third most viewed Netlix film on the platform. Follow in order, and often neck and neck, Ben Affleck, Vin Diesel, Akshay Kumer, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Will Smith, Adam Sandler and finally Jackie Chan.
What to retain from this 2020 ranking? Well, Netflix seems to have become the real Hollywood ticket machine, and all the more so in the context of the pandemic since almost all the players in the ranking have seen their income increase thanks to the productions of the streaming giant.
