Héctor Elizondo 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 Saturday (December 28) that Elizondo is the highest-paid actor in the world, pulling in an astonishing $96 million between November 2023 and November 2024, a nearly $60 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 has an estimated net worth of $275 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 Elizondo Burger” chain) in Washington, a Football Team (the “New York Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderelizondo - US), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Héctor) and a fashion line called “Héctor Elizondo Seduction”.
The ranking is significant for many Héctor fans, who have been waiting for his triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
