Even though her latest film, “Rendition,” was a flop, Reese Witherspoon is a moneymaker. The 31-year-old Academy Award winner commands $15 million to $20 million a movie, placing her at the top of The Hollywood Reporter’s annual list of the highest-paid actresses.
Angelina Jolie came in second with similar salary demands, though the animated “Beowulf” earned the 32-year-old actress far less – just $8 million.
Cameron Diaz was third, with a $15 million-per-movie price tag. Nicole Kidman dropped to fourth place, two spots lower than last year, with an asking price of $10 million to $15 million a film.
Renee Zellweger and Sandra Bullock also get $10 to $15 million paychecks. So does Julia Roberts, who hasn’t appeared on the big screen since 2004. Her next film, “Charlie Wilson’s War,” is due in theaters in December.
Rounding out the top 10 are Drew Barrymore and Jodie Foster, who ask $10 million to $12 million per project, and Halle Berry, who gets $10 million a picture.
The salary list appears in The Hollywood Reporter’s “Women in Entertainment: Power 100″ issue, on newsstands Tuesday.

Jake Gyllenhaal and Reese Witherspoon had another PDA-packed public date Wednesday, taking Witherspoon’s two children, Ava, 8, and Deacon, 4, trick or treating in L.A.’s Brentwood neighborhood.
Witherspoon, 31, dressed as a witch; Gyllenhaal, 26, an ape.
“They were holding hands and swinging them in the air as they walked around the neighborhood,” adds a witness, who says Gyllenhaal often lifted up his gorilla mask to smooch his Rendition co-star. “Reese was laughing at everything Jake was saying.”
As Ava (also in witch wardrobe) and Deacon (dressed as a super hero) ran up to every door for treats, “Reese and Jake waited on the sidewalk and flirted,” the onlooker tells Usmagazine.com.
They even started to act like a pair of giddy kids themselves.
“Jake tapped Reese on the butt and then she hit him back — they began running a circle hitting each other!” the witness says. “Then Jake picked Reese up off her feet and she screamed.”
Gyllenhaal seemed to play it cool during his first public outing with Witherspoon’s children.
“Jake ran up to Deacon with the gorilla mask and pretended to scare him!†the onlooker says. “Deacon laughed.â€
He also had a few scares for Witherspoon.
Adds the witness, “Sometimes he came up from behind and nuzzled his big hairy mask into her neck.â€

There has been much speculation about their relationship and now Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal have finally come out as a couple.
The pair met on set of the upcoming movie Rendition and have now taken their romance public – they were spotted holding hands and canoodling during a romantic trip to Rome.
Witherspoon, 31, whose divorce from former husband Ryan Phillippe was finalised this month, had previously denied a romance with the Brokeback Mountain star.
The pair first began dating around March this year, although they were careful to avoid being photographed together.
However, Reese, who has two children Ava, 8, and Deacon, 3, called the romance off in June, according to reports.
Now it’s clear their love affair is most definitely back on.
Reese has said: “I have known Jake for years through different friends and he is just wonderful.
“He’s very kind, generous and funny.”
In an interview with Ellen DeGeneres this week she continued to hint at her fondness for the actor describing him as “cute” and “great”.
Oscar winner Reese has made it clear she likes to be the one in control of a relationship.
She told Elle magazine last month: “[My dad and uncle] taught me that in every relationship, the person least interested in maintaining it is going to dominate it, because they’ll never compromise.
“So you have to always maintain that position of least interest, and you’ll always control the relationship.”
Still, she insists: “I’m fun. I can be really fun.”
Gyllenhaal, 26, has previously dated actress Kirsten Dunst.

Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe are officially single. The couple’s divorce was finalized Oct. 5, according to court documents. Witherspoon cited irreconcilable differences when she filed for divorce on Nov. 8, 2006.
The couple were married for seven years and have two children, 8-year-old daughter Ava and 3-year-old son Deacon.
Witherspoon, 31, and Phillippe, 33, co-starred in the 1999 movie “Cruel Intentions” and were married that year. Their separation was announced last October.
Witherspoon won the best-actress Academy Award for her portrayal of June Carter Cash in 2005′s “Walk the Line.” She can next be seen in “Rendition,” co-starring Jake Gyllenhaal, which is due out later this month.
Phillippe’s screen credits include “Crash,” “Flags of Our Fathers” and “Breach.”
Court documents confirming the divorce were first posted by the celebrity Web site CelebTV.com.
