Lena Headey tops annual list of highest-paid actresses
In 2021 it looked like the actress’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, she was back on top. People With Money reports on Wednesday (April 17) that Headey is the highest-paid actress in the world, pulling in an astonishing $58 million between March 2023 and March 2024, a nearly $30 million lead over her 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 British actress has an estimated net worth of $185 million. She owes her fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. She also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Headey Burger” chain) in London, a Football Team (the “Hamilton Angels”), has launched her own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderheadey - UK), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Lena) and a fashion line called “Lena Headey Seduction”.
The ranking is significant for many Lena fans, who have been waiting for her triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
