I see the female half of the 'Hollywood power couple' is not on the list

Out of those Julia Roberts' grosses are the most impressive. Most of her movies made money because of or in part thanks to her.

The list is faulty b/c animation and supporting roles are counted like lead roles.

I love Sigourney Weaver but almost $800M of that comes from Avatar. Almost $700M of Kathy Bates' numbers come from Titanic. And Cameron Diaz's voice-over work in Shrek is counted

No one cares to go watch a movie starring Helena Bonham Carter. She's just lucky her husband sticks her in everything he does.

Well Avatar was huge and she was a main character in it, same for Kathy Bates, she played a BIG part in that movie. Cameron is the MAIN FEMALE LEAD in all the Shrek films so it is very impressive on her part, what's wrong with animation being counted, they're still movies.

Helena is the one who seems to be creeping her way in because of Harry Potter.

Helena is a super great actress.

It pays to be married to one of the most influential film director, film producer, and writer in Hollywood. Helena better collect those coins!

K-Stew will overtake Emma when Breaking Dawn - Part 2 is released

I did too, but it depends on the films she was in, they can be iconic, but Ms Watson + Helena were in massive series smashes, where each one got bigger. The level of production etc isn't the same...but adoration and respect...
