Jackie Chan 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 Wednesday (December 25) that Chan is the highest-paid actor in the world, pulling in an astonishing $58 million between November 2023 and November 2024, a nearly $30 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 actor has an estimated net worth of $185 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 Chan Burger” chain) in Hong Kong, a Football Team (the “Hong Kong Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderchan - Hong Kong), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Jackie) and a fashion line called “Jackie Chan Seduction”.
The ranking is significant for many Jackie fans, who have been waiting for his triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
