This year's edition of the world record book lists Radcliffe as the highest grossing actor of the decade, with an average of $558 million (£335 million) per film.

His Harry Potter co-star Emma Watson earned the record of highest average box office gross for an actress, with her six films averaging $753.7 million each.

Angelina Jolie was named the most powerful actress in this year's Guinness World Records collection, based on web searches, Forbes earnings and Celebdaq share prices.

Her partner Brad Pitt lost out to Johnny Depp as the most powerful actor.
