Which New Actress Grossed Over $1 Billion at the Box Office This Year?

Ready for some shocking monetary figures that will put your $9/hour filing paychecks to shame? According to Forbes, Leonardo DiCaprio grossed $1.1 billion at the global box office in 2011 thanks to the fearsome twosome of Shutter Island and Inception. Okay, maybe DiCaprio's perch on top of this year's highest-grossing list is not that shocking. What is surprising, though, is which young actress finished just behind the actor, grossing over $1 billion. Any guesses?

If you guessed Mia Wasikowska, you're right! The 21-year-old Australian actress tied her Alice in Wonderland co-star Johnny Depp for second place, both with "a total worldwide gross of $1.03 billion."

Behind them, Robert Downey, Jr. ranked fourth with $808 million thanks to Iron Man 2 and Due Date. Daniel Radcliffe brought up the caboose of this shortlist with a paltry $780 million from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I. Not listed: Reese Witherspoon. Better luck next year!
