Hollywood heartthrob Leonardo DiCaprio has topped Forbes magazine list of the highest grossing actors of 2010, thanks to hits like "Inception" and "Shutter Island", news agency PTI reported.
The 36-year-old starred in movies which made $1.1 billion at the global box office and DiCaprio took home a big pay cheque, earning $75 million for his work on "Inception" alone, according to Forbes.com.
"The young actor has a habit of picking very adult films. These aren't the kind of superhero/comic book films that usually top the box office. But DiCaprio is well on his way to becoming one of Hollywoods best-paid actors," said the magazine about the actor.
Tying for second place with co-star Johhny Depp, is the big surprise on the list, newcomer Mia Wasikowska, who played the titular role in "Alice in Wonderland", which raked in $1.03 billion at the box office.
"Just as surprising, she ties Depp in our ranking thanks to her other movie this year, "The Kids Are All Right". That film has earned $29 million at the global box office, a healthy return considering the estimated $4 million production budget," said the magazine about the 21-year-old Australian actress.
Robert Downey Jr. ranks fourth with $808 million thanks to "Iron Man 2" and the comedy "Due Date".
The top five was rounded off by young British actor Daniel Radcliffe who gained a spot thanks to his role as young wizard Harry Potter in the superhit fantasy franchise.
"Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1", which only opened a month ago, is already the fourth-highest-grossing film of 2010 with $780 million at the global box office.
Twilight heartthrob Robert Pattinson grabbed the sixth spot while while his co-star in the "Twilight" vampire franchise and real-life girlfriend Kristen Stewart came seventh.
"Avatar" actor Sam Worthington came eighth while Will Smith's 12-year-old son Jaden Smith and his "Karate Kid" co-star Jackie Chan rounded off the top ten.
