He’s played several lead roles in a good number of films, and he’s also received his fair share of awards. Besides awards, Depp’s movies are one of the highest-grossing films in Hollywood in recent history. In turn, it’s not surprising that he’s earned a spot in the highest-paid actors in the world.

One film that allowed Depp to receive a massive payday was the 2010 movie Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. Depp reportedly earned over $55 million from his lead role in the fourth rendition of the Pirates series.
