Chris Evans named best value actor for second year running
If you want to give your movie some bang for its buck, hire Chris Evans.
The ‘Captain America’ star has earned the accolade of Forbes’ 10 Best Actors for the Buck for a second year running.
Using the metric developed by the magazine, Evans returns $135.80 for ever $1 he is paid.
Of course, it massively helped that he featured heavily in mostly money-spinning Marvel movies, including ‘Captain America: Civil War’, which grossed $1.153 billion.
Next up on the list is Chris Pratt, who made back $125.40 for every $1 paid, thanks to roles in ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ and ‘Jurassic World’.
Scarlett Johansson came in third ($88.60), then Mila Kunis ($49.50), and then Vin Diesel ($32).
