Cate Blanchett makes top five for Hollywood value for money

Australian actress Cate Blanchett has ranked fifth in a list of the most value-for-money Hollywood actors.

But the list was topped by Shia LaBeouf, who was named the most value-for-money actor in Hollywood for the second year in a row.

LaBeouf topped a survey by Forbes to find the star who pulls in the most money for movie bosses, with LaBeouf earning an estimated $US81 ($90.81) in profit for every $US1 ($1.12) he is paid.

The 24-year-old, who has appeared in a string of high profile blockbusters including Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen and Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, topped the same poll last year.

Anne Hathaway, whose hit Disney movie Alice in Wonderland recently passed the $US1 billion ($1.12 billion) mark at the worldwide box office, came in second, followed by Daniel Radcliffe, Robert Downey Jr and Cate Blanchett.
