Tom Cruise has been named the highest-paid actor of 2025, reportedly earning $150 million. This significant income is largely attributed to his role in 'Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning,' where he served as lead actor, producer, and stunt performer. Cruise's earnings are boosted by a unique 'first-dollar gross' profit-sharing model, allowing him to receive a percentage of box-office revenue before studio costs. His films have grossed over $13.3 billion worldwide, contributing to an estimated net worth between $600 million and $891 million.
