9. Jodie Foster ($10-12 Million/Movie)
Jodie Foster's most recent film "The Brave One" exceeded box office expectations and Foster's additional role as executive producer bolstered her earnings. Foster typically takes a project a year but past hit films "Inside Man" and "Flightplan" prove the star is worth the wait.

6. Sandra Bullock ($10-$15 Million/Movie)
Sandra Bullock will always have the "Speed" and "Miss Congeniality" franchises to draw on and this allows the actress to take on riskier roles like the reclusive Harper Lee in "Infamous" and she will appear in "All About Steve" with Thomas Haden Church.
