Poll: Top ten money-making stars of 2010 (20 images)

Hollywood film actor Johnny Depp was voted the Top Money-Making Star of 2010 in Quigley Publishing Company's 79th annual poll of motion-picture exhibitors. Depp previously ranked No. 1 on the poll in 2007 and 2006 and has appeared on the roster a total of six times during his career. Exhibitors said they felt Depp was responsible for more traffic to theaters than any other Hollywood star, based on his performances this year in "Alice in Wonderland" and "The Tourist."

Here are the other nine Hollywood stars who made the list:
