Brendan Fraser has an estimated net worth of $20 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth, Brendan Fraser net worth page (figures as of July 28, 2026).

Brendan Fraser is an American and Canadian actor who was born on December 3, 1968. He had his breakthrough in 1992 with the comedy Encino Man and the drama School Ties. He gained further prominence in With Honors in 1994 and George of the Jungle in 1997, and emerged as a star playing Rick O'Connell in The Mummy films, which began in 1999.

He took on dramatic roles in Gods and Monsters in 1998, The Quiet American in 2002 and Crash in 2004, and fantasy roles in Bedazzled in 2000, plus Inkheart and Journey to the Center of the Earth in 2008. His film career was revitalized in the 2020s by starring roles in No Sudden Move in 2021, The Whale in 2022 and Rental Family in 2025. His work in The Whale earned him the Academy Award for Best Actor, making him the first Canadian to receive it.

How Brendan Fraser makes his money

The Mummy films were his biggest earner. A leading man in a blockbuster adventure series earns large fees, and the films were hits with strong home video and television sales for years afterward.

His work slowed from the late 2000s to the mid-2010s, which kept his income from rising in that period. He then branched out into television with roles in The Affair from 2016 to 2017, Trust in 2018 and Doom Patrol from 2019 to 2023.

His comeback in the 2020s came through director-led films such as The Whale, directed by Darren Aronofsky, and an Oscar often raises an actor's asking price for later roles.

Because he won the award recently, his future roles may bring higher pay than the earlier years captured in outside estimates.

His estimate

Celebrity Net Worth estimates Brendan Fraser's net worth at $20 million, on its page last updated July 28, 2026.
