Celebrity Net Worth Thread

JLaw must be worth a lot more. They paid her $10 million for THG2. She must have made more from the next two parts. What's your source ?

 

The info is probably outdated, but I doubt she's worth too, too much more than that. She is still new to the scene and up until THG2, her paycheques have been quite low. Wasn't it something like 250k for THG1? So she still hasn't got the accumulated worth of someone like Jackman or Berry who's had time to rack up paycheques and divest elsewhere.

A lot of them made this much mostly as producers actually.

Check out Stallone and Schwarzenegger. Arnold was very rich from real-estate even before becoming an actor.

I always look at a guy like David Schwimmer and wonder how is worth 80 million. But then I remember that Friends reruns pay very well

Don't forget, the show was on a long time and the cast presented a unified front when negotiating. The last 2, maybe 3 seasons, they were all getting 1 million per episode, and the years right before that they weren't making peanuts either. You are right about residuals too, they are still getting paid nicely.

Don't forget, they don't keep all that money.

 

Income taxes

The fee for their agent (15%?)

Publicist

Personal assistant

etc.

 

Out of a $10m payday they probably keep 3.5-4m, so it does take time to accumulate the numbers the big boys have, unless you can start taking a % of the gross like a Downey Jr. and Will Smith.

Top 10 according to wealth-x.

 

Jerry Seinfeld is the wealthiest actor in the world with an estimated net worth of $820 million USD.

This is according to Wealth-X, a firm that describes itself as the de facto source for information on the richest people on earth. Seinfeld's status at the top of the list is in part due to the $400 million he made with his fifth syndication deal for his hit TV show from the 1990s, Seinfeld. Tom CruiseTyler PerryJohnny Depp, and Jack Nicholson are also on the list.

Coming in at second place is Bollywood movie star Shah Rukh Khan, who Wealth-X says is worth an estimated $600 million. Khan is known as "The King of Bollywood," appearing in over 50 films. The rest of the list is below (with estimated net worth in US dollars):

 

    [*]1) Jerry Seinfeld — $820 million [*]2) Shah Rukh Khan — $600 million [*]3) Tom Cruise — $480 million [*]4) Tyler Perry — $450 million [*]5) Johnny Depp — $450 million [*]6) Jack Nicholson — $400 million [*]7) Tom Hanks — $390 million [*]8) Bill Cosby — $380 million
    [*]9) Clint Eastwood — $370 million [*]10) Adam Sandler — $340 million
