12. Emma Watson – Age 25
What began as a reoccurring role in the Harry Potter movie franchise has skyrocketed Emma Watsoninto a household name. To date, Emma has starred in 17 feature films, positioning her as an undeniable A-lister. She’s also set to take on the role of Belle in the live-action remake of Disney’s Beauty and The Beast – a highly-coveted gig. Beyond her many on-screen appearances, she’s also taken on a role as a UN Goodwill Ambassador for Women, and has made the women’s rights movement one of her personal projects. When she isn’t doing good for the world, it’s possible she might be checking in on her bank account, which totals an estimated $60 million. No small chunk of change for such a young woman. Did we mention she’s also a Brown University graduate? And, yes, she’s squeezed this all in within a mere quarter century.
