Eddie Murphy Named Most Overpaid Actor

Eddie Murphy, hollywood actor, has been named 2012's most overpaid actor. The star of hits such as Shrek and Dr Dolittle has recently appeared in a number of flops including Imagine That, A Thousand Words and Meet Dave.
According to the list, those box office flops mean that for every $1, 62p, Murphy was paid for his last three films, they took an average of $2.30, £1.40, at the box office.
Reese Witherspoon and Katherine Heigl also feature in the top five.
Comedy performers feature heavily on the list, with Adam Sandler, Jack Black and Ben Stiller all being criticised for their high salaries and low box office returns.
Despite movies such as Stiller's Tower Heist being a success, earning $153m (£95m) in takings, it cost $75m (£46.5m) to make, with actor's salaries making up a large proportion of that figure.
Wow... too much money.
