LOS ANGELES (AP) - He's nowhere near the highest-paid actor in Hollywood, but Forbes magazine figures Shia LaBeouf gives the best return to the studios that hire him.
For every dollar that LaBeouf is paid, his films return an average of $81 in profit, which is why he tops the Forbes list of actors who give the biggest bang for the buck.
Anne Hathaway is next on the list. For every dollar she makes, her movies earn $64.
Daniel Radcliffe is close behind in third. His movies make $61 in profit for every dollar he earns. Then comes Robert Downey Jr. His profit total is $33. Cate Blanchett rounds out the top five with a $27 profit margin.
The rest of the top 10 are Jennifer Aniston, who's tied with Meryl Streep, Johnny Depp, and a tie between Nicolas Cage and Sarah Jessica Parker.
