Jennifer Lawrence and Scarlett Johansson have claimed the two top spots on the annual ranking of highest paid actresses.

Lawrence stood head and shoulders above her competition, raking in a cool $52 million the last year. It was thanks in large part to starring roles in blockbuster franchises like "The Hunger Games" and "X-Men." She also has a contract with luxury brand Dior, according to Forbes, which compiles the list every year.

Scarlett Johansson came in second, earning $35.5 million. Johansson pulled in a nice chunk of change for her role in "Avengers: Age of Ultron," and also starred in the hit action movie "Lucy." She supplements her acting income with endorsements from Dolce & Gabbana and Sodastream.

Bingbing Fan was the only non-American to make the list. The Chinese actress earned $21 million, and is best known to American audiences for her role in "X-Men: Days of Future Past." She also starred in the Chinese fantasy epic "The White Haired Witch of Lunar Kingdom."
