There's a new king of the box office after it was announced today that Mark Wahlberg had dethroned The Rock as the highest-paid actor in Hollywood.

Wahlberg raked in a whopping $68 million USD this calendar year alone, while The Rock still managed to grab second place with $65 million. Rounding out the top five were Vin Diesel ($54.5 million), Adam Sandler ($50.5 million) and Jackie Chan ($49 million).

According to Forbes, the world's 20 highest-paid actors tallied a combined $720 million USD between June 1, 2016, and June 1, 2017 — aided by blockbuster films, expanded Marvel universes, and the popularity of Bollywood cinema.

Perhaps what's most notable is the fact that in comparison, the highest paid actresses, Emma Stone and Jennifer Anniston, each respectively made $26 and $25.5 million USD which illustrates the ongoing wage gap between the sexes.

The rest of the Forbes list can be viewed below.

20. Mark Ruffalo - $13 million USD 19. Chris Pratt - $17 million USD 18. Chris Evans - $18 million USD 17. Jeremy Renner - $19 million USD 16. Matt Damon - $21 million USD 15. Ryan Reynolds - $21.5 million USD 14. Ryan Gosling - $29 million USD 13. Samuel L. Jackson - $30.5 million USD 12. Tom Hanks - $31 million USD 11. Chris Hemsworth - $31.5 million USD 10. Ashkay Kumar - $35.5 million USD 9. Salman Khan - $37 million USD 8. Shah Rukh Khan - $38 million USD 7. Tom Cruise - $43 million USD 6. Robert Downey Jr. - $48 million USD
