In a new article by Forbes found on MSN , Daniel Radcliffe is among the actors who are the “Best Actors for the Buck”.  Also included on the list are Shia LaBeouf, James McAvoy, Christian Bale and more.

Harry Potter’s Daniel Radcliffe, 20, is the youngest man in the top 10. He earns much more for his work in the Warner Bros films than some of his fellow actors, but the Harry Potter movies make such spectacular gobs of money that his salary turns out to be a good return on investment. For every dollar Warner pays Radcliffe, his films earn $93.

Studios like to be able to replace a franchise star at their whim. That way they don’t have to pay him much. But as Harry Potter, Daniel Radcliffe has made himself indispensable. That’s helped his payday without hurting his return on investment number, mostly because the Harry Potter movies do so well. To date they have earned $5.3 billion at the worldwide box office with two more movies in the pipeline.
