Rob #6 on Forbes List of Hollywood’s Highest Grossing Actors
Rob listed at no. 6 on Forbes.com list of Hollywood’s Highest Grossing Actors for 2010:
“#6 Robert Pattinson $749 million – The Twilight films have been perennial earners, so it’s no surprise to see Pattinson on this list. He ranks above his costar Kristen Stewart thanks to Remember Me, a weepy romance that earned a healthy $56 million on an estimated budget of $16 million. Pattinson’s next film is an adaptation of the bestselling book Water for Elephants.”Â
Well it seems that Forbes did in fact “remember” Rob thanks to the box office takings for Remember Me. If you want to see who else is on the list, then click on the hyperlink above – he’s in some pretty good company that’s for sure. In case you want to know how Forbes compiles its list:Â
“In Hollywood it’s all about the box office. If your film brings in big bucks, expect producers, studios and casting directors to come calling. Here are the actors whose films grossed the most in 2010. We gave each star credit for the entire global box office of each film he or she starred in. We didn’t count animated movies. For the sake of this list, we’re only looking at box office gross. We looked at the earnings for the top films of the year and credited each star the entire box office. So if an actor starred in two big movies (like DiCaprio did) he got credit for both. We did not include animated films, although they were some of the top-earning of the year, because the stars aren’t really the big draw for those films.”Â

Some really good company there. Can’t wait to see him at no.1 and I have no doubt, it will happen!!!

Very impressive. 2011 will be the year that will cement Rob’s name as a top earner without the need to reference Twilight.

This is really pleasing to read. It is wonderful to see that they acknowledged the success of Remember Me at the Box Office which did very well considering the low budget and the subject matter of the movie.
It’s also great to see that he is only one spot behind Daniel Radcliffe who has the HP franchise behind him which I believe is bigger than Twilight.
Well done Rob – you are truly “bankable”. And this is only the beginning. I know you will use this to make truly memorable movies in the future.
BTW @maria, I ADORE the mood pic!!! It is such a fitting choice…I must have seen it before but I had totally forgotten it. Thanks xoxoxo
