ToggleWhat Is Emma Watson’s Net Worth?
Actor Emma Watson’s net worth is estimated to be $85 million. Watson has starred in a string of big blockbusters, including the Harry Potter movies, Beauty And The Beast, and Little Women.
Aside from acting, Emma Watson is a successful model and voice actor. With more than 100 million followers across her social media accounts, she has also built the type of fanatical fanbase that product advertisers love to target, making her a hot ticket for brand endorsements.
Let’s take a close look at Emma Watson’s net worth through her various revenue streams so we can understand how she made such a big fortune at such a young age.
How Much Did Emma Watson Make For Each Harry Potter Movie?
The three main actors in the Harry Potter movie franchise earned huge paychecks for their efforts, especially as Warner Bros. rolled out the later movies in the book series.
By the time the movie franchise came to an end, Watson was being paid $15 million per movie. According to Yahoo, her total take home was $70 million.
Watson’s salary was significantly boosted from her less than $1 million paycheck in “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, according to Parade.
The actor also earned a reported $4 million for Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, according to Screen Rant.
Given the film’s success even years after its initial run, it’s very likely that Watson is still being paid royalties on any potential back-end deals she may have secured.
How Much Did Emma Watson Earn From Beauty And The Beast?
Emma Watson’s net worth increased by $15 million when she appeared as Belle in the live-action version of Disney’s “Beauty and the Beast.”
According to TheThings.com, Watson earned just $3 million upfront and then collected $12 million from a back-end deal that rewarded her for the film’s massive success.
“Beauty and the Beast” earned $504 million in the United States and Canada and made $764.5 million internationally, for a total gross revenue of $1.3 billion.
Emma Watson’s Brand Deals Are High-End And Lucrative
While many actors we cover have deals with the likes of Coca-Cola and Nike, Emma Watson’s natural beauty and name recognition have landed her brand endorsement deals with some of the fashion world’s most recognizable luxury brands.
Among her past and current brand partners are the likes of Burberry, Chanel, Lancome, Christian Dior, Calvin Klein, and Catbird. In 2009 the actor received a six-figure paycheck for her work with Burberry.
Here’s Watson’s commercial for Lancome.
Emma Watson has also joined forces with several sustainable beauty brands, including, Coltrane Works, Svilu, AnaKhouri, and Gabriela Hearst.
While her exact brand pay isn’t known, Celebrity Net Worth estimates that Emma makes about $5 million to $10 million per year just from brand ops.
With a massive social media following, it’s not unfathomable that the actor could be making more than $250,000 per sponsored post.
While Emma Watson’s net worth is impressive and she may have earned more had she not taken some time away from the industry to continue her education. Watson graduated from Brown University with a bachelor’s degree in English literature in 2014. In October 2023, it was revealed that Watson had entered into a part-time Master’s degree program at Oxford.
Daniel Radcliff’s net worth has climbed just over $110 million in recent years and it’s nice to see that his female co-star has kept up with her fellow actor, especially in an industry where women are often paid significantly less than their male counterparts.
