Names like Dwayne Johnson, Robert De Niro, and Tom Cruise are frequently mentioned when discussing the wealthiest actors. These celebrities are well-known for both their fortune and skill.
Given the popularity of *Barbie*, some people would believe that Margot Robbie has become one of the wealthiest. But today’s wealthiest actor might be someone few people have heard of.
The richest actor has surprisingly stayed out of the public eye for years. In actuality, if most people saw her in public, they wouldn’t recognize her. Her wealth comes from sources that are very different from the typical Hollywood path.
With prominent parts in popular movies, this actor’s career got underway in the 1980s and 1990s. But she never became as well-known as celebrities like Brad Pitt or Julia Roberts.
Her acting career stagnated after the 1990s, and in 1996 she landed her final significant role. However, her on-screen persona has little bearing on her current riches.
Rather, she achieved success through her commercial endeavors, especially her collaboration with Tony Ressler, a multibillionaire.
They invested wisely together, buying a minority share in the Milwaukee Brewers and the NBA’s Atlanta Hawks. She now has more than $3 billion in wealth as a result of her endeavors.
Jami Gertz is the actor in question. Despite not being well-known, her investments and economic sense have made her the richest actor, outperforming even the most well-known Hollywood stars.
