1. Shia LaBeouf – $81
LaBeouf tops our list for the second year in a row thanks to his relatively low-paid work in high-earning films like Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull and the second Transformers movie. As his box office grows so will his quote, which means it will be harder for him to stay at the top of our list unless his films earn proportionally more money.

When LaBeouf starred in the first Transformers movie in 2007, Viacom’s Paramount Studio was able to pay him under $5 million. It had to bump that up considerably for the second film (which earned $833 million in 2009), but LaBeouf still isn’t earning $20 million upfront to star in a picture.

As a result, he offers a great return on investment. For every $1 studios spend on the 24-year-old actor his films return an average $81 of profit. For our list this year LaBeouf also benefits from the fourth Indiana Jones film, which earned $790 million in 2008. George Lucas, Steven Spielberg and Harrison Ford split the bulk of the profits from that movie leaving LaBeouf as a profitable costar.

As the actor’s fame (and box-office earnings) increase he’ll be able to demand more for each film which will hurt his return on investment number unless the films are gigantic blockbusters. That could be the case with the next Transformers movie. LaBeouf was able to ask for more money upfront but because the movie is being filmed in 3-D, it should earn even more than Transformers 2.

Shia LaBeouf delivers a better financial return for every dollar he is paid than any other actor in Hollywood, according to a new poll.

For the second year running, LaBeouf topped the Forbes magazine list of stars who offer the most “bang for the buck”, earning an estimated $81 (£52) profit for every $1 he is paid. His position is due to the financial success of films such as Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, which made $836m last year, and 2008′s Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, which notched up $787m worldwide in 2008.

Second place went to Anne Hathaway, thanks to the success of Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland, in which she starred as the White Queen. The film made more than $1bn globally, with Hathaway herself worth $64 for every $1 she is paid. • Read full story…

The actor often finds himself being quizzed about his relationships when he is promoting movies, but knows it is just part of the business. The star of Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps insists he doesn’t see the point in telling lies about his private life and prefers to remain open.

“I’ve never lied. I’ve never lied about my life. I’m super-honest. This is who I’ve been since day one,” he told a film magazine.

Shia applies the same approach when discussing movies he’s starred in and says audience’s deserve to be told if a movie isn’t very good. The star thinks it’s better to warn viewers that a movie hasn’t worked because otherwise they will discover the truth for themselves when they go to see it. • Read full story…

SHIA LaBeouf says the fifth indiana Jones movie sounds “crazy”.

The actor can’t wait to reprise his role as Indy’s son alongside Harrison Ford and has already had a sneak peek at the new adventure being planned by director Steven Spielberg.

“They’re script writing right now,” says Shia. “I got called into Steven’s office and he pitched a little bit to me and it sounds crazy, it sounds really cool.”

Shia — who is currently dating British beauty Carey Mulligan — recently insisted he’s not a “huge spender”.

“I’ve never been a huge spender. I bought my parents’ houses because I was young and thinking like most single children whose parents are going through a divorce, I wanted to try and make things better,” he said.

“I realized they just weren’t meant to be and that’s beautiful too and they’re friends. Otherwise it’s mainly Dodger tickets. Seriously, I go pretty hard on those.”
