Dwayne Johnson is a popular face for those who watch World Wrestling Entertainment. Known as ‘The Rock,’ the wrestler is now rocking the big screen as one of the biggest superstars of World cinema.
The actor, who made his debut with ‘The Mummy Returns,’ is currently one of the busiest stars in Hollywood. Now, Forbes Magazine has declared that Dwayne is the highest-paid actor in the world. According to Forbes, the actor enjoys great fanbase around the world and his movies are doing extremely good business. All these have made him achieve a record-breaking salary of 89.4 million dollars. Actor Chris Hemsworth, known for his role as ‘Thor’ in the Avengers franchise, holds the second position with a salary of 76.4 million dollars.
The actor thanked his fans for helping him secure the achievement. In his Instagram post, he said, “I’ve worked pretty hard to reach this level but I never thought that I would become the world’s highest-paid actor. I don’t have an MBA from Harvard but I definitely know to finetune my skills and have learnt a lot from failures. When I participated in wrestling matches on the streets, my only aim was to earn 40$. I still have that mindset and I believe that my only employer is the world.”
