ANTHONY HOPKINS | ACTOR | $160 MILLION

The Hollywood industry never comes short when it comes to producing and showcasing legendary actors, but only a few have come close to Anthony Hopkin’s caliber. Before racking paychecks in the millions, young Philip Anthony Hopkins lived a quiet life in Port Talbot, Glamorgan, Wales. Hopkins always had a creative mind ever since. He took an interest in painting and drawing at a young age, which, to some degree, might explain his artistic sense.

Eventually, this passion for the arts led him to sign up in Royal Welsh’s College of Music and Drama, from which he graduated in 1957. After years of studying his craft, Hopkins would dominate the acting industry in various movies such as Hannibal, The Remains of the Day, and The Mask of Zorro. Of course, since he was someone with great talent in acting, he was paid very handsomely — and today he reportedly has a net worth of $160 million. From the mythical Odin to the creepy Hannibal, Hopkins can pull it off.
