Although we don't hear much about Julia Stiles these days, the star is still acting and was most recently seen in the crime drama Hustlers. After starring in the Jason Bourne movies, Julia's career seems to have taken a nosedive. From becoming a household name after her outstanding performance in her breakout role in 10 Things I Hate About You, she's now taking on fewer mainstream roles.
She was a '90s icon with a promising Hollywood career. She starred in one of the '90s teen rom-coms that are still worth watching - and people still talk about her role as Kat in 10 Things I Hate About You. She may have slowed down now, but the star is definitely not hurting for cash. Julia has a net worth of $12 million which she earned primarily through acting.
She Is Valued At $12 Million
Most people remember Julia Stiles from her breakout role, in 10 Things I Hate About You. She played a strong and uncompromising teen determined to stand up for what she believed in. To this day, the movie remains one of those rom-coms from the '90s better than anything from today.
After the success of 10 Things I Hate About You, Julia went on to star in various other projects including the Jason Bourne movies and Showtime's crime drama series Dexter. Hollywood success usually translates to a healthy bank account, however, finding and landing the perfect role is what ultimately determines how quickly an actor/actress's net worth rises.
According to Celebrity Net Worth, Julia is worth a whopping $12 million. Although it is unknown how much the star makes per movie, it's safe to assume that she commands a decent paycheck. The Bourne movies in which she starred, grossed over $1.6 billion worldwide, which is quite impressive!
Her Career Took A Nosedive
For many celebrities, living up to the role that skyrocketed them to stardom is an unachievable feat, whether it's due to being typecast or Hollywood and the viewers' failure to allow the actors or actresses to grow as artists. Julia faced this challenge, she has evolved as an artist and felt like she didn't fit in anywhere.
In an interview with The Daily Beast, the actress revealed, "I felt like I was sort of jumping from job to job that I wasn’t really connected to, and worried about where my career was going."
She further stated, "I think a few years ago my frustration was feeling like nobody knew what to do with me. You know, I had had some success in my twenties and now I’m in a different place in my life and I didn’t really fit anywhere."
The star's career seems to have slowed down. At one point, she was in her prime, and many people assumed she would go on to become one of Hollywood's leading ladies. Alas, Julia took a break from Tinseltown to attend college, and after that, she starred in several movies that didn't perform well. However, in 2019 she starred alongside Jennifer Lopez, Constance Wu, and Keke Palmer in the crime drama Hustlers. Perhaps, Julia will once again make waves in Hollywood?
