Will Ferrell, Denzel Washington Hollywood's Overpayed Actors For 2010

Ferrell, Washington And Murphy On The List For the second straight year, Will Ferrell is the most overpaid actor in the world, and not far behind are a slew of other male comedic actors.

In making its determination, Forbes looked at the three most recent movies of each actor on its Celebrity 100 list.
