Cast Of Stepmom: How Much Are They Worth Now?

The ’90s were a very busy time for Julia Roberts, who as the “it girl” of the decade and amidst the slew of romantic comedies such as Pretty Woman, Notting Hill, Runaway Bride and My Best Friend’s Wedding, she took on some more dramatic roles. One of her often forgotten about, but best films, was 1998’s Stepmom. It had a small main cast, but a very talented one, and a story that gripped audiences from beginning to end, making it a film that you can watch over and over again. It has now been 18 years since Stepmom was first released and a good time to find out how the cast’s careers have panned out!

6. Lynn Whitfield

Estimated Net Worth: $3 Million. Since the cast was so small for Stepmom, Lynn Whitfield only had the small role of Dr. P. Sweikert. She began her career in theater before moving to on-screen work in 1981. Whitfield has worked hard and now has 100 acting credits to her name and is most well known for her roles in Eve’s Bayou, The Josephine Baker Story and The Rebound. She has also appeared in shows such as Without a Trace, How to Get Away with Murder and Boston Public and has made a net worth of $3 million.

He portrayed Luke Harrison in Stepmom for which he won the National Board of Review Award for Best Supporting Actor. Over his lengthy career he is best known for his roles in Borderline, The Abyss, The Firm, Apollo 13, The Rock, The Truman Show, Enemy at the Gates, A Beautiful Mind and Appaloosa just to name a few.

4. Liam Aiken

Estimated Net Worth: $1 Million. Liam Aiken did very well as a child star with his first role coming in 1997’s Henry Fool, followed by many other films including Stepmom, Sweet November and Road to Perdition. Aiken also landed the starring role in the big-screen adaptation of A Series of Unfortunate Events. Given his fast success, it is surprising that although he has continued acting, he has not appeared in anything on the same level of fame as the films he starred in as a child. It is also unfortunate that he was originally cast as Harry Potter for the series but was let go after J.K. Rowling insisted all actors be British. Regardless, Aiken still has a net worth of $1 million.

3. Jena Malone

Estimated Net Worth: $4 Million. Jena Malone began acting when she was only 12-years-old and gained instant recognition after starring in 1996’s Bastard Out of Carolina. She went on to appear in Contact and Stepmom as Anna Harrison, as well as films such as Donnie Darko, Life as a House, Cold Mountain, Pride & Prejudice, Into the Wild and recently The Hunger Games as well as many others.
