The aspirational dream life of being a successful and wealthy actor may seem out of the realm of possibility for most people, but there are a few who have reached the top of the Hollywood elite stratosphere or international cinematic superstardom. Whether it is just from acting or a combination of producing, directing or other ventures, many of the highest-paid actors are multimillionaires or even billionaires.
Though the rankings fluctuate from year to year, here are the current 10 richest actors in the world in descending order.
Adam Sandler first gained national fame as a cast member on SNL, only to be fired a few years later. But that didn’t dampen his success. Not only is Sandler a Hollywood heavy hitter when it comes to acting, but he also has other talents. Sandler has written and produced many of his own films.
Never was there a more grizzled or more quotable action hero than Schwarzenegger. Before he became the governor of California, this Austrian bodybuilder put out a series of solid action films, most notably from the 1980s to the 1990s. His action rival — and occasional costar — Sylvester Stallone is only worth $400 million, so the Governator currently has a slightly bigger box office flex.
There are actors and there are icons, and if you were talking to Mr. De Niro, you could tell him he is the latter. The list of his filmography and nominations is as long and distinguished as his career, so it is good to know he has a lot to show for it.
This film and television actor projects the image of the suaveness and coolness of classic Hollywood. Although still currently acting, Clooney is also a co-founder of the popular American tequila company Casamigos.
Often referred to as the King of Bollywood, Khan is known for his acting, writing, producing and television personality. Khan has been a part of more than 80 Bollywood films.
There has not been a box office record that Cruise has not either set or beaten. He remains one of the most recognizable faces on the planet, as well as one of the highest-paid. If Cruise attaches his name to a project, it’s not so much risky business as it is a guaranteed money maker.
If you have smelled what The Rock is cooking, it is largely because everything Johnson serves up seems to be a smash hit. Whether it is for wrestling or acting, Johnson has millions of fans who always show up in droves to see his next premiere.
Known for developing his stage plays into film productions, Perry may be one of the richest actors in the world, but he is also one of the most famous producers. His production company alone has landed him on the Times list of 100 Most Influential People.
Not only one of the richest actors in the world, but by far the richest comedian, Seinfeld made his start as a stand-up. Never one to sit down on the job, Seinfeld turned his material into one of the most successful sitcoms of all time.
Though she rose to stardom in the 1980s, it may surprise you to find Gertz at the top of this list. Known for her acting, producing, philanthropy and other business endeavors, Gertz is one of the richest women in the world and also the only female on this list. She, along with her husband Antony Ressler, also own the NBA’s Atlanta Hawks.
Some of the richest people in the world are actors — the highest-paid actors are multimillionaires or billionaires. It would seem that the glitz and glamour of the silver screen is more than just smoke and mirrors but is also starring financial powerhouses.
