Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson — $20M Per Identical Role

The Rock earned $22.5 million for Red One, $22 million for Black Adam, and $20 million for each Fast & Furious film — playing the exact same smirking, eyebrow-raising, impossibly jacked good guy in every single one. Red One underperformed at $180 million against a $250 million budget. Black Adam lost an estimated $100 million. Yet studios keep paying because his Instagram (395 million followers) guarantees a global marketing reach no other actor can match. The Rock's films don't need to be good. They need to exist on a poster with his arms crossed.
