Paul Rudd’s net worth pales compared to co-stars in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), Robert Downey Jr., who is worth $300 million, and Chris Hemsworth, who is worth $130 million.
However, the versatile actor, who starred as Ant-Man in the comic book-inspired film of the same name, as well as its sequel “Ant-Man and the Wasp,” “Captain America: Civil War,” and “Avengers: Endgame,” is classified as one of the 12 wealthiest Marvel performers.
Rudd is poised to reprise his role as Ant-Man/Scott Lang in the next “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania,” which is scheduled to hit theaters in 2023. In the Disney+ original animated series “What If…?” he also voiced an alternate world, Scott Lang.
Net Worth As He Is Named as the ‘Sexiest Man Alive’
Nobody was more taken aback by People’s 2021 “Sexiest Man Alive” designation than Paul Rudd. “This is not a case of feigned humility,” he said to the newspaper. “There are many others who should receive this before me.”
However, what is undeniable is his acting ability and flexibility and his extensive and illustrious film and television career, which spans four decades and has resulted in a net worth of $70 million.
Paul Rudd’s Career in Film and Television
While Rudd’s filmography dates back to the early 1990s, he earned $40 million of his net worth in 2018 and 2019. He earned $300,000 for his first appearance as Ant-Man, but as the character’s popularity rose, Rudd’s salary increased.
He eventually earned $1.5 million in royalties from the first film, according to The Richest, and then earned an estimated $8 million for his appearance in the highest-grossing superhero film of all time, “Avengers: Endgame,” according to Forbes.
However, despite his enormous success in the role, Rudd is far from being typecast as the pint-sized superhero Ant-Man.
Rudd will reprise his role as Mr. Grooberson in the upcoming “Ghostbusters: Afterlife,” for which he allegedly got $2 million. The talented actor was honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2015.
