New Zealand moviemaker Sir Peter Jackson has cracked Forbes magazine's list of 100 most powerful celebrities for the first time.
Sir Peter, 51, is named at number 55 in the list, which is headed by Oprah Winfrey, Lady Gaga and Steven Spielberg.
He is considered a more powerful celebrity than Serena Williams, Kim Kardashian and Gordon Ramsay.
Sir Peter made an estimated US$50 million between June 2012 and June 2013 but while Sir Peter ranks highly (30th) for press and money (37th), it seems he doesn't get out much in Hollywood, as he is number 94 in the social rankings within the celebrity list.
It's the box office success that appears to have helped put him in the limelight.
