Daniel Radcliffe reaches #14 on Vilture.com’s ‘100 Most Valuable Movie Stars’ list

by Keith Hawk · July 23, 2012

A recent list of the 100 Most Valuable Movie Stars Today was released by Vulture.com, and Daniel Radcliffe – who portrayed the title character in all eight of the Harry Potter movies – came in at #14.

The list is based on a new proprietary algorithm that weighs such factors as box office, media coverage, reviews, and a Hollywood value dictated by a tribunal of studio execs.

Topping the list is Robert Downey Jr.. Rounding out the top 10 are: Will Smith, Johnny Depp, Denzel Washington, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Clint Eastwood, Angelina Jolie, Meryl Streep, and George Clooney. Thirty of the top 100 actors are women; Jaden Smith is the youngest actor on the list, at 14 years old and #67, while Clint Eastwood is the oldest, at 82 years old and #7.

You can see the entire list of stars right here.

What are your thoughts on the list? Should Dan be higher or lower? What about other Harry Potter notables such as Ralph Fiennes, and Alan Rickman? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
