Jacob Elordi Net Worth 2026: How He Built $9 Million

Jacob Elordi’s net worth is estimated at $9 million as of October 2026, built from a decade of Netflix, HBO and studio work that peaked in 2026 with Wuthering Heights, the final season of Euphoria and his first Oscar nomination, for Frankenstein. The Australian actor went from sleeping in his car in Los Angeles to leading a $110 million Ridley Scott film in under ten years.

Estimates for Elordi vary widely because none of his fees has been confirmed. Most sites still repeat a $4 million figure that dates from 2024, while Celebrity Net Worth raised its number to $10 million in August 2026. Our figure is a model rather than a reported number, and the Radar Readout below shows each piece of the working, the range around it and the sources we used.

Modeled estimate. None of his film, TV or brand fees has been confirmed, so this is a bottom-up model built on reported ranges.

How the published estimates compare

Most published figures still repeat an older $4 million estimate; Celebrity Net Worth moved to $10 million in August 2026, inside our range.

You vs. Jacob

At $60,000 a year, it would take you 150 years to earn Jacob’s estimated $9 million, before tax and without spending a cent. His rumored fee for Wuthering Heights ($1 million) equals 16.7 years of your pay.

Sources and how we estimated this

We start from the $4 million figure that estimate sites carried in 2024, trimmed for tax and spending, then add what he most likely kept from work since: reported or modeled acting fees with about half kept after agents, managers, lawyers and tax, plus a conservative allowance for his luxury brand deals. No fee in this model has been confirmed by a studio, network or brand. How we fact-check

How Jacob Elordi’s $9 Million Net Worth Is Built

We start from the $4 million figure that estimate sites carried in mid 2024 and trim it slightly to $3.5 million for tax and spending. We then add what he most likely kept from the work he has done since, assuming about half of each fee survives agents, managers, lawyers and tax.

Income laneCentral valueRange
Starting fortune, mid 2024$3.5 million$3 million to $4 million
Frankenstein, The Dog Stars and other 2024 to 2025 work, kept$2.5 million$1.5 million to $3.5 million
Euphoria season 3, kept$1.5 million$800,000 to $2 million

Wuthering Heights fee, kept$500,000$400,000 to $600,000
Total$9 million$6.2 million to $12.1 million

The biggest uncertainty is the film lane. Elordi made Frankenstein, The Narrow Road to the Deep North, On Swift Horses, Oh, Canada and The Dog Stars between 2024 and 2026, and no fee for any of them has been reported. We assume a combined gross of roughly $3 million to $7 million for that run, which is modest for an Oscar nominee leading a big studio film, and keep about half.

The Kissing Booth: The Netflix Start

Elordi’s screen career began small. He was an uncredited extra in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales in 2017, then landed Noah Flynn in Netflix’s The Kissing Booth in 2018. He played the role again in The Kissing Booth 2 (2020) and The Kissing Booth 3 (2021).

Netflix never disclosed what it paid him for the trilogy, and Cosmopolitan noted in 2025 that the figure has never come out. The trilogy gave him a large streaming audience, which arguably mattered more for his later earnings than the fees themselves. Money was still tight early on: Cosmopolitan, citing a 2022 GQ interview, reported that he had “$400 or $800 left” in his account before Euphoria, and that he slept in his 2004 Mitsubishi on Mulholland Drive.

Euphoria: Seven Years on HBO

Elordi played Nate Jacobs on HBO’s Euphoria from its 2019 debut through its final season in 2026. HBO has never published cast salaries. Cosmopolitan reported that HBO leads are generally paid somewhere between $150,000 and $1 million an episode, with supporting actors at $50,000 to $150,000, and assumed Elordi was earning six figures per episode by season 2 in 2022.

For the third season, Our Culture, citing Tuko, put his pay at about $500,000 or more per episode. That figure has not been confirmed by HBO or his representatives, so we model a season gross of roughly $1.6 million to $4 million and keep about half.

Season 3 premiered on April 12, 2026, after a four-year gap. The Statesman reported that the premiere drew 8.5 million U.S. viewers across platforms in its first three days, 44 percent more than the season 2 premiere. HBO later confirmed that season 3 was the last, so Euphoria is no longer a source of new salary.

Saltburn, Priscilla and the Move to Prestige Film

2023 was the year Elordi’s film career changed direction. He played Elvis Presley in Priscilla, which earned more than $33 million at the box office according to Celebrity Net Worth, and Felix Catton in Saltburn. Saltburn earned him a BAFTA nomination for Best Actor in a Supporting Role in 2024, the same year he was nominated for the BAFTA Rising Star Award.

No fees have been reported for either film. Our Culture cited a claim from The Richest that his Priscilla pay was similar to his Euphoria per-episode rate, but that is a secondhand estimate, so we do not lean on it.

Frankenstein: His First Oscar Nomination

Elordi played the Creature in Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein, which debuted on Netflix in November 2025. The role earned him his first Academy Award nomination, for Best Supporting Actor, announced in January 2026. He also picked up Golden Globe and BAFTA nominations for the part, and won Best Supporting Actor at both the Critics’ Choice Movie Awards and the AACTA Awards.

The same awards season brought a Golden Globe nomination and an AACTA win for his lead role as Dorrigo Evans in The Narrow Road to the Deep North, a 2025 miniseries. Netflix has not disclosed his Frankenstein fee. We expect that run of awards attention to lift his asking price on future deals.

Wuthering Heights: His Biggest Box Office Hit

Emerald Fennell’s Wuthering Heights, released by Warner Bros. on February 13, 2026, cast Elordi as Heathcliff opposite Margot Robbie’s Catherine. The Associated Press reported a $34.8 million three-day opening in North America, enough for No. 1, on a reported production budget of $80 million.

The film went on to gross about $241.7 million worldwide, including around $84 million in the United States and Canada, making it the highest-grossing film of his career. It arrived on HBO Max on May 1, 2026.

Men’s Journal reported that Elordi was paid $1 million for the role, though it framed the cast salaries as heavily rumored online rather than confirmed, and put Robbie’s rumored fee at $12 million. We use the $1 million figure as our central case and keep about half.

The Dog Stars and What Comes Next

Elordi leads Ridley Scott’s The Dog Stars as Hig, a civilian pilot living with his dog. The 20th Century Studios film has a reported budget of $110 million and was dated for release on August 28, 2026. A lead role in a film of that size is a step up from the supporting and ensemble work that defined his early career, and it is the main reason our film lane sits well above his Kissing Booth era earnings.

Brand Deals and Endorsements

Luxury fashion is Elordi’s second income stream. He fronted Calvin Klein’s spring campaign in 2021, became the face of Hugo Boss’s The Scent fragrance, and was named a TAG Heuer brand ambassador alongside Ryan Gosling, Naomi Osaka and Patrick Dempsey. In May 2024, Bottega Veneta named him a brand ambassador.

None of these contracts has a published value, so we keep this lane conservative at $1 million kept since mid 2024, with a range of $500,000 to $2 million.

Real Estate

The one property purchase on record is a 5.7-acre estate in the Byron Bay hinterland in New South Wales. Celebrity Net Worth reports he bought it in 2020 for about AUD $2 million, and that it includes a four-bedroom main house and a separate three-bedroom guest cottage. That purchase predates our starting point, so it is already reflected in the $3.5 million base rather than added on top.

The $4 million figure predates Frankenstein, Wuthering Heights, the last season of Euphoria and The Dog Stars, so it is almost certainly too low today. Celebrity Net Worth’s $10 million sits inside our range. We land a little lower because every fee we model is unconfirmed, and we would rather understate than overstate until real numbers emerge.

Elordi is still early in his earning years. For context, see the profiles of his Euphoria costar Zendaya and his fellow TAG Heuer ambassador Ryan Gosling.
