<b>"</b>The Big Bang Theory" may have been filmed to the last season, but the stars in the show are still in the day into the gold. In the list of the highest-paid American drama actors of 2018 released by Forbes, the top four are all the stars of the popular comedy cbs! At the top of the list is Jim Parsons, who made $26.5 million in the 12 months leading up to June 1, 2018.
In second, third and fourth place are his buddies "leonard" Johnny Gerkić, "howard" Simon Hellberg and "raj" Kunnau Nea, who are tied for $25 million and tied for $23.5 million. "Sher Ear" earned the most because he not only participated in the film, but also worked as an executive producer for the spin-off drama "Little Sheldon".
These four "Big Bang Theory" male stars, in fact, did not earn more than last year, in order to give the new definition of (in fact, for a long time) "permanent card division" "amy" Maim Bailik and "bernadette" Melissa Rauch higher pay, the original resident card division voluntarily asked for their own film remuneration, from $1 million a episode to $900,000 a episode. But "The Big Bang Theory" is still the king of the American drama cash cow, bringing in 7 figures of income every year.
Naval Criminal Investigation Service, Mark Harmon
In fifth place is the male protagonist of "Naval Criminal Investigation Office" Mark Harmon, who has benefited a lot from this police solving program drama produced by CBS. The show has been on the air since 2003, and Mark, like the resident cast of The Big Bang Theory, also very tactfully discussed "salary cuts". Last year's $19 million revenue included not only the film's salary, but also a portion of the show's profits.
Ranked 6-9 are the four male protagonists in "Modern Family" — "Jay" Ed O'Neill, "Cameron" Eric Stonestridt, "Mitchell" Jesse Taylor Ferguson and "Phil" Ty Briar. Since its launch in 2009, ABC's comedy has been like "The Big Bang Theory," firmly contracting its place on the list, with four actors earning a total of $52.5 million last year.
Modern Family
The new on the list is "Walking Dead" actor "Rick" Lincoln, who has already played the ninth season and his own last season, but only made the list for the first time this year. When he exits at the end of the season, we can expect that the next "crossbow brother" Norman Ridus may replace Andrew in the list, and the latter is currently negotiating a salary increase.
The only name to disappear from last year's list was Kevin Spacey, who quit playing the role of President Shimoki in House of Cards after being accused of several sexual harassment acts (though denying all of them). Because there were no new dramas, his income last year was not enough to make the list, and he was replaced by Andrew.
The Walking Dead, Andrew Lincoln
The 10 most profitable American actors in the world made $181 million between June 1, 2017 and June 1, 2018, down from $185 million in the same period last year. The income on this list is calculated pre-tax income, and the fees of agents, agencies and lawyers are not deducted, and the data comes from Nielsen, box office mojo and imdb, as well as interviews with industry insiders, and the income list of American drama actresses will soon be released.
