Despite a repeat of her infamous Oscar fall, Jennifer Lawrence pulled off an impressive 2014. She tops Forbes' list of top-grossing actors this year.
Between Mockingjay and X-Men: Days of Future Past, J-Law's films raked in $1.4 billion (and counting!) at the box office. Her success didn't stop in theaters, either: Her Mockingjay song "Hanging Tree" was a Billboard hit.
Chris Pratt, Scarlett Johansson, and Mark Wahlberg all trail Lawrence on the Forbes list, with each of their movies grossing at least $1 billion this year.
