Will Smith – $300 Million

The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air is the show that catapulted Will Smith to fame, even though he’d already achieved modest popularity as a rapper in the ’90s. Smith switched over to films after the show wrapped up six seasons later, and he still boasts of being the only actor with eight consecutive films that grossed more than $100 million at the U.S. box office. Forbes considers the Men in Black actor as the most bankable celebrity and its supported by the endless stream of paychecks he’s received totaling to $300 million throughout his career. If that isn’t enough, he still has several jobs lined up, including the 2019 films The Genie and Gemini Man.
