SBC becomes a big earner in Hollywood

Sacha Baron Cohen, known as The Dictator, has emerged as one of Hollywood’s wealthiest actors.

In the past year, the comedian has raked in over $40 million, largely due to the box office hits The Dictator and Les Miserables.

Additionally, he received a substantial paycheck for voicing lemur King Julien in Madagascar 3.

Sacha has overtaken Robert Pattinson, the star of Twilight, to claim the title of highest-paid British actor in films.

Despite surpassing the earnings of notable figures like Tom Hanks ($34 million) and Brad Pitt ($32 million), the actor did not make it onto the annual Celebrity 100 list due to not being deemed famous enough.

Leading the list of influential personalities in Hollywood was Tom Cruise, who earned $90 million last year for his performances in Jack Reacher and Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol.
