George Clooney's Tequila Made Him the Highest-Paid Male Actor of 2018 According to 'Forbes', George Clooney is the highest-paid male actor of 2018, knocking Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson from the top, even though Clooney appeared in zero films. That's because Clooney earned
a $239 million paycheck from selling
his tequila brand, Casamigos,
to Diageo for $1 billion in June 2017. He still made some money from
endorsements and older movies, but the
bulk of his income came from the tequila. Clooney, 57, founded Casamigos with two friends in 2013. It turned into one of the fastest-growing tequila brands
in the world. George Clooney, to CNBC
