Courteney Cox
Courteney Cox might be pretty off the grid these days, but once upon a time, she played Monica Gellar on Friends. During the last few years of the show, the stars of the program all raked in about $1 million per episode. Courteney had earned some cash from Scream, but Friends took her fortunes to new heights.
Claire Danes
Now there's a name you've heard before! Whether you prefer her performance alongside Leonardo Dicaprio in Romeo + Juliet or as Carrie Mathison in the drama series Homeland, she's a television treasure. She earned about $9 million in 2018, making her one of the top tier actresses of the year.
