Highlights

• Daniel Radcliffe has a net worth of $110 million, thanks to his success in the franchise and his diverse acting career.
• Other cast members, like Emma Watson, Robert Pattinson and Rupert Grint, have also amassed significant wealth, with net worths ranging from $50 million to $85 million.
• The Harry Potter films were highly successful, grossing nearly $10 billion worldwide, and the actors earned substantial salaries for their roles, with Radcliffe earning up to $15 million per film.

When it comes to some of the highest-grossing movies of all time, the many Harry Potter films certainly come to mind! Each film was massively successful, and it went on to gross nearly $10 billion worldwide. The movies, which were inspired by the books written by J.K Rowling, not only scored the actors some major coin, but turned Rowling into the first billionaire author.

With the movies making so much money, it's only reasonable that fans have been wondering how much the Harry Potter actors made in their involvement in all eight films and how rich they are worth today. As for salaries per film, it was revealed that Radcliffe took home $1 million for the first film, $3 million for the second, and $6 million for the third. By the time he was only 15 years old, Radcliffe earned $10 million per film. Considering his final film salary reached a whopping $15 million, it's safe to say the other Harry Potter actors earned similar figures.

Although it goes without saying that Daniel Radcliffe has been thought to be the richest of the cast in the past, one of his co-stars has a net worth quite close to his. So, where does the rest of the cast stand in comparison? Let's find out!

Updated February 2024: With the announcement of a 'Harry Potter' series coming to Max in 2025/2026, fans have been wondering if the original cast will be involved in any way. While there have not been any decisions made on casting to date, no one has been ruled out either.

11 Robbie Coltrane

Net Worth: $4 Million

• Role in Harry Potter: Hagrid

Robbie Coltrane played the poor and grizzly half-giant, Hagrid, in the Harry Potter movies, but the actor was, in fact, a clean-shaven, short-haired man known for wearing snazzy suits in premieres. The actor had exclusively been seen in supporting roles throughout his career, which explains why he wasn’t all that rich. And by "all that rich," Coltrane's net worth was $4 million, at the time of his death in 2022.

Coltrane was usually the fourth billed cast member in the films, meaning he probably saw hefty paychecks in his 10-year tenure as Hagrid. It didn't seem like his earnings mattered much to the actor, seeing as he was always his jovial self.

After gaining fame from his performance in the film franchise, he hosted a non-fiction series, Robbie Coltrane Critical Evidence. He also took part in the 2022 Max special, Harry Potter 20th Anniversary: Return to Hogwarts.

10 Matthew Lewis

Net Worth: $10 Million

• Role in Harry Potter: Neville Longbottom

Like many of his Harry Potter castmates, we haven’t heard much of Matthew Lewis' acting career since his time as Neville Longbottom came to an end — at least not in the U.S.

While Lewis has not worked in a couple of years, he still has a hefty net worth of $10 million.

9 Maggie Smith

Net Worth: $20 Million

• Role in Harry Potter: Minerva McGonagall

Despite her more prominent role in Downton Abbey, Dame Maggie’s fortune is another big surprise. Maggie Smith's net worth is $20 million. The surprise is valid, seeing as Smith has achieved everything there is in acting and served both as a leading actress and in supporting roles. She’s also an Oscar winner and one of the biggest names of her time — something that has lasted to this day.

While Smith is well into her eighties, she doesn't show signs of retiring any time soon. Some of her most recent projects, according to IMDb include:

With another project currently in production, Smith is only going to continue to add to her net worth further.

8 Tom Felton

Net Worth: $20 Million

• Role in Harry Potter: Draco Malfoy

7 Emma Thompson

Net Worth: $40 Million

• Role in Harry Potter: Lord Voldemort

Ralph Fiennes has been a leading man in many well-known works but is generally better known as playing the villain in many productions, including In Bruges and the Harry Potter series. His work in the James Bond series will probably inflate his fortune even further, considering the recent Bond films are among the highest-grossing of all time. Luckily for Fiennes, his time in the biz has allowed him to earn a whopping $50 million net worth.

Some other projects that Fiennes has worked on over the course of his career, according to IMDb include:

With four projects in various stages of production, Fiennes is staying quite busy well after his time with the Harry Potter franchise came to an end.

5 Rupert Grint

Net Worth: $50 Million

• Role in Harry Potter: Ron Weasley

While he was part of the main trio in the Harry Potter films, Rupert isn’t as rich as his two counterparts, mainly because he’s shied away from the big screen since his Harry Potter days. In an interview, he even admitted surprise at being paid so much as a child star that he wasn’t sure what to do with his life now that he was financially secure.

Due to this kind of soul-searching, Rupert hasn’t been seen much and has settled down with his $50 million net worth for the time being.

Some of the projects that Grint has worked on since Harry Potter according to IMDb include:

Grint also welcomed his first child with his long-term girlfriend Georgia Groome in 2020.

4 Helena Bonham Carter

Net Worth: $60 Million

• Role in Harry Potter: Bellatrix Lestrange

Helena Bonham Carter only joined this famous cast of actors for Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, but you may have noticed her part was much larger than most of the other evil counterparts. She was a huge name in the business and got additional scenes for herself for the studio to get the most value out of paying her salary. Before her appearance in these films, she starred in Fight Club and often played British heroines, roles that allowed her to earn a net worth of $60 million.

Some of the other projects that Bonham Carter has been in, according to IMDb include:

3 Emma Watson

Net Worth: $85 Million

• Role in Harry Potter: Hermione Granger

Emma Watson has been outspoken about the many causes she’s supported over the years, but that’s all because she has enough time to focus on them thanks to her $85 million net worth. Watson’s second major role, apart from playing Hermione, of course, was in Beauty and the Beast – a film that attracted $1.2 billion at the box office.

Other projects that Watson has worked on, according to IMDb include:

In 2023, on her thirty-third birthday, Watson announced in an Instagram post that she was taking a step back from the limelight to focus on herself. With an $85 million net worth, this is easy to do.

2 Robert Pattinson

Net Worth: $100 Million

• Role in Harry Potter: Cedric Diggory

Robert Pattinson had just one appearance in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, but becoming Cedric Diggory was the springboard he needed to land his star-making role in the Twilight saga. Since appearing in that series, Pattinson has become a superstar adored by millions of fans around the globe, amassing a net worth of $100 million! It's no wonder that in 2010, Time magazine named him one of the 100 Most Influential People in the World.

1 Daniel Radcliffe

Net Worth: $110 Million

• Role in Harry Potter: Harry Potter

Obviously, the main character of the series was going to be the top name on this list. Daniel Radcliffe was also the top-billed star in the franchise, which gave him enormous exposure and a clear path to success.

These days, you can find Radcliffe on Broadway, in film, on television, and even in some popular YouTube videos. He’s tried his hand (and succeeded) in every venture there is in acting, which means he’s earned all the $110 million he possesses. Then again, Harry Potter is said to have contributed $95 million to him, so clearly he made the most money from the franchise.
