To state the obvious, actors take home large (make that ginormous) paychecks that when broken down, could contain the yearly salaries of several working people.

Wanna know who is number one in this category? You might not believe it, but comedian Adam Sandler (yes, the guy from Big Daddy) is considered the most overpaid actor in 2013. Apparently, Forbes reports that Adam Sandler can take home a $15 million per movie, even if the movie does poorly. Why? Because he has had major success in the past! Sadly, that really hasn't been the case with his past few movies. Forbes reports that Jack & Jill and That's My Boy were huge flops and that Adam only brings back $3.40 for every $1 paid in.
