VOV.VN – At the age of 20, Millie Bobby Brown was already a globally admired movie superstar, highly praised by critics, with a huge fortune thanks to her many activities and a clean private life. Along with that, after her wedding to Jake Bongiovi, the couple’s assets made fans admire.

Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi officially tied the knot in May 2024, after a 13-month engagement. The couple have been together for more than 4 years, often appearing together at major events and sharing sweet moments on social media.

How much money do Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi make?

According to Celebrity Net Worth, Millie Bobby Brown, the star of “Stranger Things,” has an estimated net worth of $14 million as of May 2024. Her fortune comes primarily from her acting career in film and television, along with endorsement deals for luxury brands and her own cosmetics line. Meanwhile, Jake Bongiovi is said to have a net worth of about $700,000, which is only about 5% of his wife’s.

Together, the couple’s combined assets are worth an estimated $14.7 million. Millie Bobby Brown’s fortune is almost entirely built on her successful acting career. At just 20 years old, Millie Bobby Brown has become a global star.

Millie Bobby Brown’s career exploded with her role as Eleven in the Netflix horror series “Stranger Things” (2016-present). Her performance is considered one of the best performances by a young star. The series’ huge success catapulted Brown to stardom.

According to Deadline, Millie Bobby Brown was paid around $30,000 per episode for the first two seasons of “Stranger Things.” As the show became more successful, her earnings skyrocketed to around $200,000 – $250,000 per episode for the third season.

Millie Bobby Brown could reportedly earn $300,000 per episode, including bonuses, by the end of season four. Her earnings are sure to increase in season five of “Stranger Things,” which is expected to be the series’ final season and is set to air in 2025.

According to a January 2023 Business Insider report, Matthew Belloni of Puck News said Brown’s deal with Netflix was “very lucrative,” although her exact salary for season five has not been disclosed. However, Belloni mentioned that all of the show’s other main cast members received between $6 million and $9.5 million for the season under a tiered system Netflix created for them. This means Brown’s salary is at the top of the pay scale, with only Winona Ryder and David Harbour each receiving $9.5 million.

Before “Stranger Things” premiered, Brown had appeared in supporting roles on TV shows such as “Intruders” (2014), “NCIS” (2014), “Modern Family” (2015), and “Grey’s Anatomy” (2015). After the success of “Stranger Things,” Brown made her big screen breakthrough with “Godzilla: King of the Monsters” (2019). Her first film became a box office hit, grossing an estimated $387 million worldwide. Reports say Brown was paid $1 million for the film.

She also appeared in the sequel, “Godzilla vs. Kong” (2021), which was even more successful. The sequel grossed $470 million worldwide, becoming one of the highest-grossing films of 2021. While her exact salary for the sequel is unknown, she is expected to earn more than she did for the previous film.

Millie Bobby Brown has arguably made even more money thanks to her success as an actress and producer in the Netflix adaptation of “Enola Holmes.” She played the titular character, Sherlock Holmes’ younger sister, in two films — “Enola Holmes” (2020) and its sequel, which is set to be released in 2022. Both films were successful and cemented Brown’s popularity as a leading actress, especially since she co-starred alongside Henry Cavill as Sherlock Holmes. Reports say Brown earned around $6.1 million for the first film and $10 million for the sequel. These figures do not include her earnings as a producer on the two films, so technically she should have earned a few million dollars more for each film.

Brown took on the lead role in the Netflix dark fantasy film “Damsel” (2024). Although the film received mixed reviews, her performance was praised by critics. She will appear as Michelle in “Electric State,” which is scheduled to be released in 2024.

The film is directed by Anthony and Joe Russo, based on the graphic novel of the same name by Simon Stålenhag. Brown stars alongside an ensemble cast that includes Chris Pratt, Ke Huy Quan, Stanley Tucci, Jason Alexander, Brian Cox, Giancarlo Esposito, Anthony Mackie and Billy Bob Thornton.

Jake Bongiovi, on the other hand, has yet to start his career in the entertainment industry. The 22-year-old is expected to make his acting debut in the film “Sweethearts,” the release date of which has yet to be announced. His father, Jon Bon Jovi, is worth an estimated $410 million.
