Jason Momoa tops annual list of highest-paid actors

In 2022 it looked like the actor’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, he was back on top. People With Money reports on Sunday (June 15) that Momoa is the highest-paid actor in the world, pulling in an astonishing $75 million between May 2024 and May 2025, a nearly $40 million lead over his closest competition.

People With Money’s factors

In compiling this yearly list, the magazine considers factors such as upfront pay, profit participation, residuals, endorsements and advertising work.

The American actor-model has an estimated net worth of $215 million. He owes his fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. He also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Momoa Burger” chain) in Washington, a Football Team (the “Honolulu Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wondermomoa - US), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Jason) and a fashion line called “Jason Momoa Seduction”.

The ranking is significant for many Jason fans, who have been waiting for his triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
