Actor, producer, and longstanding Hollywood golden boy Brad Pitt has been enchanting audiences ever since his breakthrough performance in 1991’s Thelma & Louise, portraying J.D., a hairdryer-wielding hitchhiker who sweeps Geena Davis off her feet—while also stealing all her cash.

Part leading man, part rebel, and a perennial favorite with fans and critics alike, Pitt starred in some of the biggest films of the past few decades, which helped him amass some serious wealth. 

Along the way, he took home two Academy Awards, winning the Best Supporting Actor Oscar for his role in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood in 2020 and for producing 12 Years a Slave in 2014, which won Best Picture.

But the A-list celebrity’s biggest headlines often happen offscreen, owing to the public’s endless fascination with his personal life, including his relationships with Gwyneth Paltrow and Jennifer Aniston, his high-profile marriage and ultimately contentious divorce from Angelina Jolie, with whom he shares six children, and his struggles with sobriety.

Pitt’s fortune has expanded in recent years due to a few choice film roles and multi-million-dollar real estate deals, and by offloading a majority stake in his production company, Plan B Entertainment. He also remains mired in a legal battle over Château Miraval, the French vineyard he owned with ex Jolie that’s valued at upwards of half a billion dollars.

So, how much is Brad Pitt worth now, as F1, his latest summer blockbuster, debuts in theaters?

What’s Brad Pitt’s net worth in 2025?

 Brad Pitt has a net worth of around $400 million, according to most sources, including Celebrity Net Worth, Yahoo, and Men’s Journal.

How much does Brad Pitt make as an actor? 

Pitt typically earns $20 million per film but often makes more than that due to serving as a producer or receiving a share of his films’ profits. For instance, with Ocean’s Eleven, he is estimated to have added an additional $30 million to his take-home pay.

In 2016, Forbes reported the celebrity’s yearly earnings at $31.5 million.

In 2022, the venerable publication placed Pitt among the World’s 10 Highest-Paid Entertainers, estimating that he pocketed a total of $100 million that year, broken down into a combined $30 million from just three films: Babylon, Bullet Train, and The Lost City, with the rest stemming from selling a majority stake in Plan B, the production company he co-founded with Aniston.

Their company produced critically acclaimed hits like Moonlight, 12 Years a Slave, and The Departed, but while Pitt cashed in his share to the French media conglomerate, Mediawan, Variety reports that he still owns a minority stake. At the time, Plan B’s valuation was in the “low hundreds of millions of dollars.”

Here’s a look at his ever-expanding paychecks:

Who is richer, Brad Pitt or Tom Cruise?

After more than three decades since their last appearance together in the 1994 film Interview with the Vampire, Pitt and Cruise reunited at the London premiere of F1 on June 23, 2025.

Fiercely competitive in their younger days, Pitt and Cruise had nothing but love for each other as they embraced on the red carpet and posed for photos—although when it comes to wealth, Cruise eclipses Pitt by nearly 50%.

With seven installments of the hugely popular Mission: Impossible film franchise under his belt, (for which he’s taken home as much as 10–20% of gross box office earnings), Cruise’s net worth in 2025 stands at an impressive $600 million.

But that doesn’t seem to faze Pitt. When asked if the two stars would ever team up again, Pitt told reporters he would be interested—so long as he doesn’t have to do Cruise’s death-defying stunts, jokingly telling E! News that he’ll star with Cruise “when he does something again that’s on the ground.”

Brad Pitt’s early life and acting career

William Bradley Pitt was born on December 18, 1963, in Shawnee, Oklahoma. His father, William Alvin, owned a trucking company while his mother, Jane Etta, was a school counselor. Pitt was raised as a Southern Baptist and has two younger siblings: a brother, Doug, and a sister, Julie. 

The family relocated to Springfield, Missouri, where Pitt graduated from Kickapoo High School. His love of acting began with his involvement in drama classes and by performing in the high school’s musicals.

Pitt enrolled at the University of Missouri and majored in journalism with a minor in advertising. However, two weeks before he was expected to graduate, he left campus and moved to Hollywood. P

itt supported himself by taking on odd jobs, including a stint as a limo driver and time spent donning a chicken costume at a fast-food chain, all while taking acting lessons from renowned acting coach Roy London.

Casting directors were quick to notice the blond actor with all-American good looks, and he received small parts on TV shows like “Another World,” “Dallas,” “21 Jump Street,” and “Growing Pains.” He also had uncredited roles in several feature films and even appeared in a commercial for Levi’s jeans.

Pitt’s first leading role came in “A River Runs Through It,” in 1992.

Brad Pitt’s best movies

Pitt’s small supporting role in Thelma & Louise established him as a sex symbol, but the 5’11” actor actually wasn’t the first choice for the part. William Baldwin, George Clooney, and Robert Downey Jr. had each auditioned, but leading actress Geena Davis was so captivated by Pitt that she personally petitioned for him to get the role, revealing to The Tribune that his screen test had caused the flustered actress to mess up her lines.

Other notable Brad Pitt films include:

A River Runs Through It (1992)

The first time the then-30-year-old was cast in a leading role was in Robert Redford’s drama about two boys growing up in rural Montana. Pitt’s portrayal of charismatic but rebellious younger brother Paul Maclean showcased his ability to portray complex characters and established his stardom.

Legends of the Fall (1995)

Critics lampooned the melodramatic saga of Colonel William Ludlow (Anthony Hopkins) and his three sons, Tristan (Pitt), Alfred (Aidan Quinn), and Samuel (Henry Thomas), who come of age on a remote ranch in Montana at the outbreak of World War I. 

But fans went crazy for Pitt’s portrayal of the spirited and passionate middle brother who falls in love with his brother’s fiancée after he is killed in battle, as Pitt skillfully blended his character’s ruggedness with emotional depth and vulnerability.

Fight Club (1999)

David Fincher’s cult classic centered around an unhappy office worker (played by Edward Norton) who meets Tyler Durden (Pitt) on a flight and starts an underground fight club where men release their frustrations through combat. 

The nihilistic Durden becomes the catalyst for the film’s main conflict, earning the then-35-year-old actor praise for his acting range and “shredded” physique. In fact, Pitt’s very low body fat percentage (around 5%) for the film has become the “gold standard” for lean muscle building.

Inglourious Basterds (2009)

One of several of Pitt’s forays into wartime drama, Quentin Tarantino’s film was set in Nazi-occupied France during World War II and provided an alternate take on history, including a plot to assassinate Hitler at a cinema in Paris. 

As the squad’s leader, Southern Lieutenant Aldo Raine, Pitt dyed his hair black, perhaps as an expression of his character’s desire for retribution at any cost—including scalping his enemies.

Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2019)

Pitt teamed up again with Tarantino (and reportedly accepted a $10 million pay cut) to portray Cliff Booth, stuntman to the once-popular TV star, Rick Dalton. 

Set in Los Angeles during the late 1960s, the film offered a nostalgic look at Hollywood’s bygone era while focusing on its dark realities, and Pitt’s masterful performance as Dalton’s complex and loyal friend earned him an Oscar.

Brad Pitt’s personal life

Having twice received the honor of being People’s “Sexiest Man Alive,” it’s no wonder Pitt is just as famous for his relationships as he is for his movies.

Brad Pitt’s girlfriends

Pitt has been romantically linked to a number of Hollywood stars, including Juliette Lewis, Robin Givens, Christina Applegate, and Gwyneth Paltrow. Pitt’s most recent relationship is with jewelry executive Ines de Ramon, who was formerly married to The Vampire Diaries’ actor Paul Wesley. Pitt and de Ramon started dating in 2022; she reportedly moved in with the actor in February 2024.

Brad Pitt’s wives

After dating for two years, and appearing on the hit sitcom Friends, Pitt proposed to Jennifer Aniston with a custom, circular diamond ring rumored to have cost $500,000 in 1999. On July 29, 2000, the couple wed in a lavish, million-dollar ceremony on a Malibu bluff that included a performance by Melissa Etheridge and ended with an evening fireworks show over the Pacific Ocean.

Pitt and Aniston renovated several Los Angeles mansions together and founded their production company, Plan B Entertainment, in 2001. When rumors surfaced of Pitt’s affair with Angelina Jolie, Aniston filed for divorce in March 2005, and Pitt became the sole owner of their company. Although the exes initially had a strained relationship, they were able to maintain their friendship through the years—to the delight of paparazzi.

Following Pitt’s split from Aniston, he and Jolie went public with their relationship in July 2005 after tabloid photos surfaced of them vacationing in Kenya. The single mother, who had recently filed for divorce from director Billy Bob Thornton, had admitted that she “certainly wasn’t” looking for a relationship when she met Pitt on the set of their film Mr. & Mrs. Smith. But the film created a camaraderie that quickly escalated into romance, with Jolie admitting to People, “a few months in I realized, ‘God, I can’t wait to get to work.’ … Anything we had to do with each other, we just found a lot of joy in it together and a lot of real teamwork. We just became kind of a pair.”

The couple embarked on a tumultuous, 12-year relationship, originally declaring they wouldn’t marry until “everyone else in the country who wants to be married is legally able.”

In April 2012, Jolie was seen sporting a $1 million engagement ring designed by Pitt himself over the course of a year. The oblong-shaped central diamond weighed 10 carats and was set on a gold band surrounded by ribbed diamonds, all chosen to fit Jolie’s hand.

The couple married at their French château, Miraval, on August 14, 2014, but just two years later, in August 2016, Jolie filed for divorce after an incident of alleged domestic violence on their private plane. The FBI and Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services both investigated the case but ultimately did not bring charges.

In April 2019, a judge declared the couple “legally single” although their divorce proceedings would take another five years to complete, due to their legal battle over the Château Miraval winery. Their divorce was finalized in December 2024.

Brad Pitt’s children

Pitt and Jolie shared six children together: adopted sons Maddox (b. 2001) and Pax (b.  2003), an adopted daughter Zahara (b. 2005), and three biological children, daughter Shiloh (b. 2006) and fraternal twins Knox and Vivienne (b. 2008).

All six of their children were involved in the couple’s 2014 wedding ceremony, with Maddox and Pax walking Jolie down the aisle, Zahara and Vivienne as flower girls, and Shiloh and Knox the ring bearers.

Pitt successfully petitioned to legally adopt Maddox, Pax, and Zahara, and all of his children took on Pitt’s last name; however, since the couple separated, Pitt’s children have been estranged from the actor, despite “several efforts to reconnect.” Pax has been critical of their father on social media, while Shiloh, Zahara, and Vivienne have stopped using his last name.

Brad Pitt’s business ventures

In addition to his production company, Plan B Entertainment, Pitt’s business empire includes multiple liquor companies.

Pitt and Jolie bought Château Miraval, a 1,200-acre estate and vineyard in Provence, France, in 2011. They invested significantly in the former 13th-century monastery, which boasted a recording studio where Pink Floyd recorded “The Wall” in 1979. They launched Miraval Wines in 2013, and People reported that the initial 6,000 bottles of wine sold out in mere hours.

The vineyard’s wines achieved critical success, and its rosé was even designated one of Wine Spectator’s list of Top 100 wines. Miraval’s wines have also been a hit with consumers ever since the brand launched more affordable lines such as “Studio by Miraval” and “Fleur de Miraval.” Château Miraval itself has become something of a tourist destination, even though it’s not open to the public.

The winery became part of Pitt and Jolie’s legal dispute when it was revealed that Jolie had sold her share to a third party, Tenute del Mondo, without Pitt’s consent in 2021. The legal battle is ongoing in 2025.

In 2023, Pitt teamed up with Tanqueray’s master distiller, Tom Nichol, and the Perrin family, which owns the Château de Beaucastel winery, to launch his first gin brand, The Gardener. The refreshing sip is evocative of the sunny Mediterranean, with fresh notes of orange, and it won the bronze medal at that year’s World Gin Awards.

In addition to his business deals, Pitts’s famous face has also endorsed brands like Chanel, Brioni, Honda, Cadillac, and Heineken. He launched his own line of skincare products, Le Domaine, in 2022.

Brad Pitt’s health issues

After separating from Jolie, Pitt was candid about his struggles with alcohol, detailing how attending Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) meetings contributed to his recovery. He has credited actors Bradley Cooper and Dax Shepard for helping him with his sobriety.

Speaking on Shephard’s “Armchair Expert” podcast, Pitt admitted, “I was pretty much on my knees, and I was really open … It was a difficult time. I needed rebooting …And it just meant a lot to me.”

Pitt also said that he suffers from prosopagnosia, or face blindness. By 2013, he revealed that it had become so severe that he often wished he could avoid the limelight and stay at home.

While the actor has not admitted to having plastic surgery to retain his youthful looks, many speculate that he has received a facelift, nose job, and eyelid surgery, along with Botox and fillers.

Brad Pitt’s real estate portfolio

According to Architectural Digest, Pitt’s expansive real estate portfolio once included properties in France, Mallorca, Los Angeles, Missouri, New York City, and New Orleans.

After achieving stardom with Thelma & Louise, Pitt purchased a $1.7 million mansion in Los Angeles’ Los Feliz neighborhood that had previously been owned by Elvira, Mistress of the Dark (Cassandra Peterson). 

In subsequent years, he snapped up adjoining parcels to create a 2.0-acre mecca for his and Jolie’s children that included a 6,692-square-foot Craftsman-style home, outdoor swimming pool, a tennis court, and a skate park. In 2023, he sold the property to oil heiress Aileen Getty for quite a profit: $33 million.

In a curious twist of fate, Pitt purchased Getty’s abode, called Steel House, later that year for $5.5 million. The cantilevered mansion was designed by Neil M. Johnson and featured 2,000 square feet of mid-century modern living space, including a redwood hot tub and sauna, terrazzo floors, and beamed ceilings. It was previously owned by Maroon 5 guitarist James Valentine.

Expanding his Pacific-view portfolio, Pitt bought a historic bungalow in Carmel, California in 2022 for $40 million, making it the most expensive real estate deal in the area at the time, according to The Wall Street Journal. Named the D.L. James House, after the writer who lived there during World War I, the unique property was built directly into local granite, connecting it to its natural surrounds. 

But Pitt’s most impressive property remains Miraval, which Pitt and Jolie purchased in 2011 for $60 million. It includes a 35-room manor home and extensive vineyards in one of the most prized regions of France. Pitt originally owned 60% while Jolie owned 40%; as a wedding present to Jolie, Pitt gifted her an additional 10% stake, so that they’d be 50/50 partners.

In 2021, Pitt began efforts to restore the property’s historic recording studio. The estate and noteworthy winery have appreciated significantly in value in recent years, with some estimating it is now worth as much as $500 million.
