GEORGE TAKEI | ACTOR | $14 MILLION

Breaking racial barriers and leaving legacies is what George Takei’s known for, especially in his big break into fame as Lieutenant Hikaru Sulu in Star Trek. With a whopping net worth of $14 million, Hosato Takei is filled with aces up his sleeve considering how successful he is in this career. Takei was brought up in Los Angeles, California, and grew up at a time when racial tensions were high. Despite all circumstances, however, Takei proved the world wrong and started entertaining people with voiceover work for various English-dubbed Japanese movies.

His success didn’t stop there since this was simply a stepping point in his long journey to stardom. Takei debuted on the big screen in 1958’s Ice Palace, which kick-started his career in acting. With plenty of gas left in his acting tank, Takei would go on to star in A Majority of One, Red Line 7000, and eventually, Star Trek. Takei’s talent would become one of many foundations for future foreign acting in Hollywood.
