Up-and-comer LaBeouf is every studio's dream. He's a kid who (mostly) stays out of trouble, works hard on his films and is happy to do lots of promotion. Plus, until recently, he's earned a relatively low salary. Expect that to change. LaBeouf reportedly earned a lot more on the second Transformers movie, Revenge of the Fallen, but because the film only recently came out we did not count it in this survey.
