In recent years, the superhero genre has reigned supreme at the movies and on TV, raking in billions of dollars in the process. Whether it’s a comic book hero we all know and love, or a new and exciting character, we all flock to these stories of struggle and triumph. The success of comic book adaptations has led superhero flicks to cast some of the biggest movie stars working today, so we decided to take a look at some of the highest net worth actors who have donned capes and cowls. These are the 10 richest actors to have played superheroes.
10. Scarlett Johannson

Starting things off is Scarlett Johannson, easily one of the most popular, beautiful, and highest paid actresses in Hollywood.
