    Adam Sandler is really living the life. Makes movies with his friends for fun, and does a serious/good role once in a while to remind people that he’s actually a good actor. All the while earning a bunch of money.

    Adam Sandler is number 1 and that is all you need to know about movie industry today. Sad.

      It might be related to having a production stake in each movie he’s in. Probably similar for Tom Cruise.

      I have no idea how Marky Mark is so well paid. His movies mostly flop.

    Aren’t all of these quite old?

    Only one under 40 is Millie Bobby Brown and her career is probably finished in 2025.

        She didn’t achieve much during these years of exposure. Also, her appearance in the last season of Stranger Things doesn’t bode well for her to keep working in US productions at least. She doesn’t fit the female stereotype.

        She would either have to go for a long pause and then bet on indies, since she is still too expensive now, or she will have to drastically change her appearance.
