6. Victor Garber

Estimated Net Worth: $5 Million. Since stepping into acting full time in the ’70s, Victor Garber has been in a lot of big name television series as well as movies which makes it very surprising he is not worth more than $5 million. Garber had been in Three Days and Nights of Molly Dodd, E.N.G., Sleepless in Seattle, Titanic and many others before starring as Professor Callahan in Legally Blonde. Since then he has appeared in Tuck Everlasting, Alias, Justice, Eli Stone, Glee, Deception, Republic of Doyle, Web Therapy and The Flash. With a starring role in the show Legends of Tomorrow, it seems Garber is well on his way to adding quite a bit to his net worth.

5. Jennifer Coolidge

Estimated Net Worth: $8 Million. It seems if a role ever calls for an eccentric mother, aunt, stepmother or similar role, the one to call upon is almost always Jennifer Coolidge who has been making her statement in Hollywood since first appearing on Seinfeld back in 1993. Since then she has been in a slew of shows and movies including A Night at the Roxbury, American Pie, Down to Earth and of course as Paulette in Legally Blonde. She has had continued success with the American Pie and Legally Blonde sequels as well as roles in A Cinderella Story, Click, The Secret Life of the American Teenager, Gravity Falls and 2 Broke Girls.

Estimated Net Worth: $30 Million. While Owen Wilson is arguably the bigger star, his brother Luke Wilson hasn’t definitely done well with his own acting career. Wilson starred in Scream 2, Home Fries, Blue Streak, My Dog Skip, and Charlie’s Angels before his role of Emmett in Legally Blonde. He has gone on to be recognized in The Royal Tenebaums, Old School, Anchorman, My Super Ex-Girlfriend, Blades of Glory and many more. Wilson has also branched out into writing, producing and directing all of which along with his many starring roles have landed him a net worth of $30 million.

1. Reese Witherspoon

Estimated Net Worth: $80 Million. Reese Witherspoon has landed the starring role in many Hollywood blockbusters, but she is still well known for her portrayal of Elle Woods in Legally Blonde, a role which earned her a Golden Globe nomination. While the film formed another peak in her career, Witherspoon had already made herself known with roles in The Man in the Moon, Freeway, Pleasantville, Cruel Intentions, Election, and American Psycho. She has of course had a very succesful career throughout the years thanks to movies like Vanity Fair, Walk the Line, This Means War, Water for Elephants and Wild. To say she has done well is an understatement — she has an $80 million net worth and only 48 acting credits to her name.
