Tate Taylor 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 Sunday (November 3) that Taylor is the highest-paid director in the world, pulling in an astonishing $82 million between October 2023 and October 2024, a nearly $50 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-screenwriter-producer-actor has an estimated net worth of $245 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 Taylor Burger” chain) in Washington, a Football Team (the “Jackson Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wondertaylor - US), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Tate) and a fashion line called “Tate Taylor Seduction”.
The ranking is significant for many Tate fans, who have been waiting for his triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
