Meryl Streep: 74, Kramer vs. Kramer, $100 Million
Meryl Streep is an acting legend. Back in the 1970s, she landed a supporting role in a war drama called “The Deer Hunter” which rocketed her to fame. She wasn’t done there. The very next year, she won her first Academy Award for playing a troubled wife in “Kramer vs. Kramer.” Throughout the 1980s, she continued to impress with unforgettable performances in movies like “Sophie’s Choice” and “Out of Africa.”
Even with a little career lull in the early 1990s, she bounced right back and kept delivering powerful performances. Meryl is basically Hollywood royalty, and with dozens of hit movies under her belt, it’s no wonder!
