Pete Davidson’s Net Worth: How SNL, Netflix and Stand-Up Built $7 Million

Pete Davidson’s net worth is estimated at $7 million as of October 2026, built on eight seasons of Saturday Night Live, a steady run of film roles, three stand-up specials and, since January 2026, his own weekly show on Netflix. That puts him well ahead of the older estimates that still circulate, though far behind the biggest stars to come out of SNL.

Published estimates for Davidson range from $4 million to $8 million, and none of them is based on disclosed pay. Netflix, his tour promoters and the studios behind his recent films have not released what they pay him. The Radar Readout below shows the published figures side by side and lays out how we reach our own number, lane by lane.

Pete Davidson Net Worth at a Glance

How Pete Davidson’s $7 Million Net Worth Is Built

Because no recent pay figure has been published, our estimate is a model. It starts from the most credible older estimate and adds what Davidson most likely kept from work that began after it.

The starting point is Celebrity Net Worth’s figure of $4 million, last updated in September 2025, trimmed slightly for taxes and living costs. The Netflix, touring and film lanes are amounts kept after agents, managers and tax, not gross pay. We do not add home equity, because his recent property sales point to losses rather than gains.

How Much Did Pete Davidson Make at SNL?

Davidson joined Saturday Night Live with the season 40 premiere on September 27, 2014, and stayed for eight seasons, leaving after the season 47 finale in 2022. Wikipedia credits him with 159 episodes.

His exact pay was never published, and the reports conflict. According to Cosmopolitan, as later repeated by Social Life Magazine, he started at around $7,000 per episode. Celebrity Net Worth puts his first-season pay lower, at $3,000 per episode, rising to a peak of about $15,000. Both outlets put the top cast rate at about $25,000 per episode, or roughly $500,000 for a 21-episode season.

Social Life Magazine estimates his total SNL income at $3 million to $4 million over eight seasons. That is gross pay before agents and tax, so the amount he kept from the show itself was considerably smaller. SNL mattered more as a launchpad: it made him famous enough to headline films, specials and tours.

Film and TV Roles

Davidson’s screen career took off while he was still on SNL. He co-wrote and starred in The King of Staten Island (2020), a semi-autobiographical film directed by Judd Apatow, and played Blackguard in James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad (2021). Other credits include Big Time Adolescence, Bodies Bodies Bodies, Meet Cute, Dumb Money and the voice of Mirage in Transformers: Rise of the Beasts.

His recent slate is busy. In 2025 he voiced Petey in Dog Man, starred as Max in the horror film The Home and played opposite Eddie Murphy and Keke Palmer in the action comedy The Pickup, which premiered in August 2025. Next up is David Leitch’s heist film How to Rob a Bank, which Amazon MGM Studios moved from September 4 to November 13, 2026. He also has Wizards! and Killing Satoshi, directed by Doug Liman, in the pipeline.

Fees for these roles have not been reported. Social Life Magazine suggests $1 million to $5 million per project for an actor at his level, but gives no source, and several of his parts are supporting or voice roles. Our model assumes he kept about $1 million in total from film work in 2025 and 2026, with a range of $500,000 to $2 million.

What Happened to Bupkis?

The Peacock series Bupkis premiered in May 2023 and stars Davidson as a fictional version of himself, with Edie Falco and Joe Pesci in the cast. He co-created, co-wrote and starred in the show. Earlier versions of this page repeated a rumored salary of $500,000 per episode; we could not find a reliable source for that figure, so it is not part of our estimate.

Peacock renewed Bupkis for a second season, but Davidson decided not to move forward with it, so season 2 is not happening. That means there was no second payday from the show.

Stand-Up Specials and Touring

Stand-up is the most consistent part of Davidson’s income. He released Pete Davidson: SMD on Comedy Central in 2016, Alive from New York on Netflix in 2020 and Turbo Fonzarelli on Netflix in 2024. Social Life Magazine estimates Netflix pays $3 million to $8 million per special at his level, but says his own figures are undisclosed, so we treat that as a ceiling rather than a fact.

He tours steadily. In 2025 he played theaters in Perth, Melbourne and Sydney on an Australian run presented by Live Nation, and in February 2026 he announced a national stand-up tour, including a May 23 show at the FireKeepers Casino Hotel event center in Michigan.

Ticket counts and grosses for these shows have not been published. Our model assumes he kept about $1 million from 2026 touring after promoter splits, travel, crew, commissions and tax, with a range of $500,000 to $2 million.

The Pete Davidson Show on Netflix

The biggest change since the older estimates is Netflix. The Pete Davidson Show, a weekly video podcast produced by Above Average, premiered on Friday, January 30, 2026, and streams only on Netflix. Sarah Brennan Kolb, who directed Turbo Fonzarelli, directs it.

Netflix has not disclosed what it pays him. A weekly show running most of the year is a meaningful new income stream, so our model adds $1.5 million kept in 2026, with a range of $750,000 to $3 million. If a renewal or a larger figure is reported, this is the lane that would move the estimate most.

Pete Davidson’s Real Estate

In 2016 Davidson reportedly paid $1.3 million for a State Island home. The home was bought for his mother, and he lived there with her until he moved into his own place.

In December 2020 he bought a waterfront Staten Island condo for $1.2 million through an LLC. In late 2022 he moved into a Brooklyn loft that Celebrity Net Worth says rented for $30,000 a month, and he listed the condo at $1.3 million. It sat on the market for years. The New York Post reported in April 2026 that the unit had gone into contract after its asking price fell to $850,000, which points to a loss of about $350,000 before renovation costs.

In 2023 he paid $1.95 million for a 1930s country home on more than six acres in North Salem, New York, with a pond, a guesthouse, a pool, a sauna and a hidden speakeasy. He listed it in early 2026 at $2.495 million and later cut the price to $2.275 million. Because neither the condo’s final price nor the North Salem sale has been confirmed, we leave property gains out of our estimate.

Other Ventures and Endorsements

Davidson and his former SNL co-star Colin Jost have also purchased a decommissioned Staten Island ferry for $280K. Fox Business reported that they bought it at auction in January 2022 with comedy club owner Paul Italia. The boat later appeared in the film Screamboat.

In December 2021 he took over Calvin Klein’s Instagram account for an underwear promotion alongside rapper Machine Gun Kelly. No fees for his endorsements have been published, so they are not a separate lane in our model.

Why Other Sites Say $4 Million or $8 Million

Celebrity Net Worth’s own figure has moved over time: Fox Business quoted it at $8 million in 2022, while the current page says $4 million. The site does not explain the change.
