This Is Who Is About To Overtake Jennifer Lawrence As The World’s Highest Paid Actress

Emma Watson is set to overtake Jennifer Lawrence as the world’s highest-paid actress.

Starring as Belle in the live-action adaptation of Disney classic, Beauty and the Beast, Watson is suspected to become the highest-paid actress of 2017.

The 27-year old star has previously made the list thanks to her breakout role as Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter films, but has never reached the number one spot.

Currently the highest-grossing live-action musical of all time, Beauty and the Beast is also the first film in 2017 to make $1 billion.
