Jacob Elordi’s star is certainly on the rise — which should bode well for his bank account too. After scoring a minor appearance in the popular Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales, he turned on the charm for The Kissing Booth, where he met his now ex-girlfriend and co-star, actress Joey King. The film premiered in May 2018 to widespread success, with Ted Sarandos, Netflix’s chief content officer, calling the project “one of the most-watched movies in the country, and maybe in the world,” according to Vulture.
“The Kissing Booth was the first film I ever made — it was sort of my ticket to Hollywood, so I was really grateful for that,” Elordi told The Hollywood Reporter in June 2019. He’s on the money when he says this movie opened doors — Elordi went on to score a spot on the critically-acclaimed Euphoria, which HBO renewed for a second season in June 2019.
Oh, and did we mention Elordi’s ad campaign for Calvin Klein? The up-and-coming Aussie stripped down to his undies for the fashion giant’s #MyCalvins campaign. Translation: Showing off your bottom can be good for one’s bottom line.
How do these career wins factor into his net worth? PopBuzz estimates that Elordi is sitting on about $1 million — a figure that might seem small by Tinseltown standards but is a far cry from his humble beginnings in Hollywood.
