2023 was one of Margot Robbie’s best years, shining not only as the iconic Barbie doll but also as one of the most beloved and highest-paid actresses in Hollywood.
Barbie was undoubtedly a phenomenon last year, with box office earnings of an impressive $1.4 billion, making it one of the best releases of 2023.
While Barbie delighted audiences worldwide, it didn’t fare well at the Oscars, as neither Greta Gerwig nor Margot Robbie received nominations for Best Director and Best Actress, respectively. However, when it comes to money, they’ve already won.
According to Forbes, Margot Robbie became the highest-paid actress, earning $59 million for her role in Barbie. She ranked second in Hollywood’s highest-paid actors list, behind Adam Sandler with $73 million, surpassing even Tom Cruise’s $45 million.

The magazine also detailed that Robbie secured the second spot in the ranking of the highest-paid actors in Hollywood, just behind Adam Sandler, who earned 73 million, and even surpassing Tom Cruise, who took home 45 million last year.
What’s even more impressive is that Robbie’s earnings won’t stop there; she’ll receive royalties for life.
The richest nominees for the 2024 Oscars, according to Gambling Factory, include:
- Robert De Niro with a net worth of $500 million
- Robert Downey Jr. with a fortune of $300 million
- Bradley Cooper with $120 million
