ToggleWhat Is Megan Fox’s Net Worth?
American actress Megan Fox’s net worth is estimated to be $8 million. Fox made her film debut in the 2004 teen comedy “Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen, and in 2007, she co-starred alongside Shia LaBeouf in the blockbuster action film “Transformers.”
While Fox seemed to appear everywhere in the late 2000s, her decision to take on roles in “Jonah Hex” and “Passion Play,” two of the worst-reviewed movies of 2010 and 2011, appeared to have fizzled her career momentum.
In recent years, Fox has been in the spotlight mostly from her divorce from ex-husband Brian Austin Grene and her current relationship with pop-punk singer, Machine Gun Kelly.
Here’s how Megan Fox’s net worth has grown since her teen comedy days.
How Much Did Megan Fox Get Paid For Transformers?
When Megan Fox accepted her role as Mikaela Banes in the first “Transformers” movie she was given a salary of just $100,000.
When the second movie debuted, Fox was paid $800,000 as a base salary. Parade notes that she may have also received a small back-end deal on the movie which has not been made public.
Megan Fox was offered $2 million to film “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen” in 2011 but she famously dramatically exited the movie before filming started.
In total, Megan Fox’s net worth increased by around $1 million for her work on the two “Transformers” movies she filmed.
How Much Did Megan Fox Make For Jennifer’s Body?
Jennifer’s Body made waves when it was released. In perhaps one of Megan Fox’s best rules, she played a teenager who is the victim of a failed Satanic sacrifice. Instead of dying, she feeds on men. The movie also starred Amanda Seyfried and Adam Brody.
The 2009 horror comedy reportedly earned Megan Fox $400,000 for her starring role.
The movie only grossed $16 million, and that failure started to cool new roles for Fox.
She Appeared In 15 Episodes Of New Girl
Megan Fox appeared in a 15-episode character arc on the hit TV series “New Girl.” During her appearance, she played a pharmaceutical salesperson and a love interest for Nick who was played by Jake Johnson.
We don’t know how much she earned for the TV show appearances but even $25,000 per episode would have provided Fox with a salary of $375,000.
Megan Fox’s Net Worth Was Affected By Her Lingerie Line
In 2016 Megan Fox became the co-owner of a lingerie line with partner Fredrick’s of Hollywood. As the lingerie line grew it also gained new partners and was soon being sold at Forever 21 and Topshop stores.
With her focus shifted more towards modeling and other ventures, the move to develop her line of lingerie made a lot of sense and likely earned her a nice lump of cash for her efforts.
Endorsement Deals Helped Grow Her Net Worth
Megan Fox turned to Armani in 2010 and appeared in various ads. The modeling gig was estimated to be worth more than $1 million at the time.
Megan Fox’s net worth also grew when she picked up deals with LOTUS, Boohoo, Acer, Sharper Image, and Motorola.
How Much Does Megan Fox Make Per Year?
Megan Fox told The New York Times that she aims to film two movies per year, although in recent years it hasn’t been uncommon to see Fox in three to four roles.
While she’s no longer appearing in huge blockbuster movies, the actor is still active, and even pay in the low fix figures is likely to add a nice chunk of change to her annual salary.
Parade estimates that Megan Fox’s net worth increases by an estimated $1 million per year.
Megan Fox’s net worth of $8 million in 2024 is largely owed to her modeling career and her regular work in smaller films and even music videos. She has also taken on voice roles which add to her fortune.
