Rob Reiner tops annual list of highest-paid directors

In 2022 it looked like the director’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, he was back on top. People With Money reports on Wednesday (November 20) that Reiner is the highest-paid director in the world, pulling in an astonishing $96 million between October 2023 and October 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 director-producer 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 Reiner Burger” chain) in Washington, a Football Team (the “New York Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wondereiner - US), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Rob) and a fashion line called “Rob Reiner Seduction”.

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