She's kicked butt in countless movie and TV roles, including Marvel and Bond franchises, and has a net worth of around $90 million today. But how exactly did Oscar-winning actress Halle Berry earn all that cash, and what's she doing with it these days?
Celebrity Net Worth confirms that Halle's net worth totals between 80 and 90 million dollars as of 2020. That's due in part to a high per-movie salary. But acting isn't Halle's only gig.
Since 1996, Halle's been contracted as one of the faces of Revlon, notes Celebrity Net Worth. That deal earns her around $10 million per year, though multiple sources say she asked for a raise after her Oscar win (who knows what the amount was before that!). And her first "major paycheck" from film arrived back in 1996, too, when she earned $1 million in 'Executive Decision.'
Halle did take a bit of a pay cut for 'Monster's Ball,' though, at a meager $600,000 for the entire film.
If that wasn't enough to pad her pockets, Halle also earned a hefty payday for plenty of movies like 'Swordfish,' which netted the actress $2.5 million. Then, she became a Bond girl in 'Die Another Day' to the tune of $4 million. Plus, she starred in 'Gothika' for a pretty $6 million.
However, 'Catwoman' was a turning point for Berry. As Celebrity Net Worth points out, Halle was one of the highest-paid actresses in the world throughout the 2000s.
Though the movie wasn't the most critically acclaimed film of her career, it did earn Halle Berry quite a bit of cash. The payday for that movie was the equivalent of $19 million today (sources can't agree whether it was $12.5 or $14 million the star earned back in the early 2000s).
She also graced the small screen in 'Extant,' which reportedly earned Halle $100,000 per episode. The show ended after two seasons, however, though Halle wasn't out of work for long afterward!
After all, following 'Catwoman,' Halle's paychecks increased, consistently clocking in at over $10 million per film. Plus, she's been acting and directing her own films (like 2020's 'Bruised'), which no doubt is adding to both her resume and bank account balance.
Of course, she has sort of been chipping away at it, following the dissolution of at least one of her relationships.
Yes, fans know that Halle's romantic relationships haven't always ended amicably. In 2014, a judge ordered Berry to pay $16K per month in child support to her ex-boyfriend, Gabriel Aubry.
That's almost $200,000 per year, and Halle was on the hook for Nahla's school tuition as well.
Still, Halle's been frugal over the years, so she probably has a healthy savings set aside just in case Hollywood stops sending millions her way.
