Jennifer Aniston Net Worth: 'Friends' And 'The Morning Show' Part Of Actor's Big Windfall
Despite numerous highs and lows over the years, Jennifer Aniston remains one of the highest-paid actresses in Hollywood. Now, with the legacy of “Friends” behind her and the huge paydays from Apple’s “The Morning Show,” her wealth is likely to keep growing for years to come.
Forbes estimates Aniston has a net worth topping $200 million while Celebrity Net Worth puts the figure at $240 million. A major component of this has come from the syndication of “Friends,” Aniston’s breakout role and one of the most popular sitcoms of all time. The actress reportedly earned $1.25 million per episode by the time show aired its final season while syndication deals bring her $20 million a year.
This latter number got a boost when Netflix acquired the streaming rights to the show in 2015 for $100 million, from which Aniston reportedly saw $2 million. The cast of “Friends” has recently been rumored for a reunion special on HBO Max.
Aniston has more recently headlined Apple TV’s flagship prestige drama, “The Morning Show,” alongside Reese Witherspoon and Steve Carrell. Aniston and Witherspoon make $2 million per episode for the show, which ran for 10 episodes in its first season and has been renewed for a second.
As a major film star, Aniston brings in major paydays for each film role. The actress is said to have made $5 million for the 2013 comedy “We’re the Millers,” and $8 million for the 2008 drama “Marley & Me.”
Aside from her film and television work, Aniston also brings in big bucks for product endorsements. In 2015, she earned a reported $5 million in a deal with Emirates Airlines. Earlier, in 2012, Aveeno offered the actress an eight-figure payday to endorse their skin-care products. Forbes reported Aniston makes $10 million a year from endorsements, including others like Smartwater and Eyelove. Furthermore, in late 2016, Aniston shares in the Living Proof company were bought for a reported $60 million to $75 million.
