Will Smith has been named the highest earner in Hollywood by Forbes magazine: Will Smith’s $80 million (£40 million) salary from the past year has made him Hollywood’s top earner.
In Forbes’s Highest Paid Actors list, the star came in first place with Pirates Of The Caribbean’s Johnny Depp landing in second with $72 million.
This year, Smith also broke a box office record after Hancock became his eighth consecutive film to cross the $100 million mark in the US. {Source}
It’s especially great to see Will achieve such a feat as a black actor. It goes to show the doors opened by the Sidney Poitier’s and Denzel Washington’s before him were not done so in vain.

Gotta love Will
I luv me some Will Smith!
i love will smith..and i love to hear news like this..he’s one of the black men in Hollywood who has been around a looong time and has managed to distance himself from any negative drama which seems hard considering he has a beautiful wife and kids…amazing!
Dont forget:
BILLY DEE WILLIAMS
MORGAN FREEMAN
SAMUAL L. JACKSON
they paved the way also
^^^no offense, but they don’t have the same impact Will Smith has…those three black actors you mention cannot even make more millions at the movies like Will Smith!
Especially by themselves…when u hear Will Smith movie is coming out…people run to the theatres!
Congrats to Will. He deff deserves all the success! Also Sam love the new comment system.

Congrats. Too bad Hancock was wack. The promotion machine behind Will and the movie did good.
