John Lloyd Cruz 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 Monday (November 4) that Cruz is the highest-paid actor in the world, pulling in an astonishing $75 million between October 2023 and October 2024, 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 Filipino 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 Cruz Burger” chain) in Manila, a Football Team (the “Pasay City Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wondercruz - Philippines), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from John) and a fashion line called “John Lloyd Cruz Seduction”.

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