Forbes has released a list of the top grossing actors of 2013, and you may be surprised to discover who made the grade.

Former wrestler Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson tops the list with an impressive £796 million thanks to 'Fast & Furious 6' raking in £483 million. He also appeared in 'GI Joe: Retaliation' and Michael Bay's 'Pain & Gain'. The late Paul Walker also appears at no. six thanks to the success of 'F&F 6'.

Next up it's Robert Downey Jr., not for the money he made for those abysmal phone ads, but for appearing in 'Iron Man 3', the highest-grossing movie of 2013 which made £735 million globally.
