Zach Cregger has an estimated net worth of $25 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth, Zach Cregger net worth page (figures as of October 30, 2026).

Zach Cregger is an American comedian, actor and filmmaker. He was born on March 1, 1981, and raised in Arlington, Virginia, before moving to Brooklyn to attend the School of Visual Arts. He is a founding member of the comedy troupe The Whitest Kids U' Know, which he formed in 2000 with Trevor Moore and Sam Brown.

The troupe won the Best Sketch Group award at the HBO U.S. Comedy Arts Festival in 2006, and its sketch series began on Fuse in 2007 and ran for five seasons until 2011. Cregger then starred in the NBC sitcoms Friends with Benefits and Guys with Kids and in Wrecked on TBS from 2016 to 2018. He later turned to horror, writing and directing Barbarian in 2022 and Weapons in 2025.

How Zach Cregger makes his money

For most of his career, acting and sketch comedy paid the bills. He earned salaries as a series regular on network sitcoms and on Wrecked, and The Whitest Kids U' Know brought him income from its sketch series and from films such as Miss March and The Civil War on Drugs.

His later income comes from filmmaking. He wrote and directed Barbarian in 2022 and Weapons in 2025, which won critical acclaim and an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for Amy Madigan. He also wrote and directed Resident Evil in 2026, and he produced the last two films, which means he shares in the business side of each project as well as collecting directing and writing fees.

More projects are already lined up. He is a producer on a Netflix film adaptation of Torso, he is writing a film version of Siren Head, and he will direct the science fiction thriller The Flood with Jennifer Lawrence, which is set for release on August 11, 2028. A Weapons prequel called Gladys is also planned, though he will not direct it.
