Highlights
- The cast of Twilight has achieved significant financial success, with each member having a net worth ranging from $4 million to $100 million.
- Despite the mixed reviews received by the movies, the franchise had a lasting impact and provided the actors with financial stability, allowing them to choose roles they wanted instead of taking any offers out of necessity.
- Some cast members, such as Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson, have achieved further success in their careers after Twilight, with Kristen even receiving an Academy Award nomination.
The first installment of the Twilight saga premiered in November 2008 and almost 15 years later some of the movie's cast members are as big as ever. While some actors went on to star in other exciting franchises, for others Twilight remained the biggest highlight of their career.
Considering the film franchise went on to gross billions, it's no surprise that the actors managed to make some sweet coin from their time on-screen. While the movies have received some less than stellar reviews, mainly when it came to the acting, there's still no denying the hold that it had on just about everyone during its prime.
Now, years later, fans are wondering what the cast of Twilight's net worth is. This is especially true for Robert Pattinson after successfully portraying the role of Edward Cullen.
So, where does the cast fall when it comes to their millions? Let's dive in!
Updated September 2023: The cast of 'Twilight' has done quite well for themselves over the years. While things on set were not always the most comfortable for the stars of the films, the money that they earned for their participation in the franchise literally financially set them for life.
In the years since, there have been some breakout stars from the original cast of the films. Most notably, Kristen Stewart, who was nominated for an Academy Award for her portrayal of Princess Diana in 'Spencer', Anna Kendrick, who has not only appeared in a couple dozen films since 'Twilight', but has produced and directed films as well, and Robert Pattinson, who has taken on the role of Batman in 'The Batman' franchise.
Despite different levels of fame, the stars of 'Twilight' walked away from the series as millionaires, which allowed them to take roles they wanted to after their time with 'Twilight' came to an end, versus being in the position of having to take any roles that came their way because they were struggling actors. And with the number of projects everyone has coming out in the next couple of years, these stars are not going anywhere anytime soon.
10 Cam Gigandet — Net Worth $4 Million
Kicking the list off at spot number 10 is Cam Gigandet who, according to Celebrity Net Worth, has an estimated net worth of $4 million.
Cam played James Witherdale in the first movie of the saga but he is also known for his roles in Never Back Down (2008), Pandorum (2009), Burlesque (2010), and Easy A (2010), as well as the teen drama The O.C.
There will be quite a bit seen of Cam seen in the next couple of years. This is because he currently has seven projects in various stages of production, just waiting to get worked on when the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strike comes to an end.
9 Kellan Lutz — Net Worth $5 Million
Next on the list is Kellan Lutz who has an estimated net worth of $5 million.
As fans of the Twilight saga already know, Kellan played Emmett Cullen in all five movies but besides his role in the vampire saga he’s also known for playing Poseidon in Immortals (2011), John Smilee in The Expendables 3 (2014), and Hercules in The Legend of Hercules (2014).
Kellan will be treating fans to more of himself on the big screen with a handful of films in pre- and post-production due to be released in 2024 and beyond.
8 Jackson Rathbone — Net Worth $7 Million
Jackson Rathbone has also made it onto the list at spot number eight as the actor has an estimated net worth of $7 million.
While Jackson played Jasper Hale in the Twilight saga, acting isn’t his only passion. The 38-year-old was also the lead vocalist and occasional guitarist, bassist, and drummer of the band 100 Monkeys from 2008 to 2012.
Over the past several years, Jackson has been busy with his film career, with five films completed between 2022 and 2023 and with just as many in production, Jackson appears to be an actor in demand from now and into the future.
7 Ashley Greene — Net Worth $8 Million
Next on the list is Ashley Greene who played Alice Cullen in the Twilight saga. The actress is estimated to have a net worth of $8 million.
While the role of Alice remains her most iconic one, Ashley is also known for starring in the movies Summer's Blood (2009), A Warrior's Heart (2011), and The Apparition (2012).
Ashley has been steadily working since the Twilight franchise ended. As such, it is no surprise that her net worth is as high as it is.
6 Peter Facinelli — Net Worth $8 Million
Number six on the list goes to actor Peter Facinelli who played Dr. Carlisle Cullen in the Twilight movies. Peter is estimated to have a net worth of $8 million.
Besides Twilight, Peter is also known for starring as Donovan "Van" Ray on the Fox series Fastlane as well as Mike Dexter in the 1998 film Can't Hardly Wait. Other notable projects that Peter was a part of are the shows Nurse Jackie and Supergirl.
Peter's net worth has dipped a bit over the last couple of years, but he also was not working quite as much during that time. However, he is poised for a net worth comeback with seven films in various stages of production for Peter to get working on when the strike ends and those in Hollywood can get back to work.
5 Nikki Reed — Net Worth $12 Million
Opening up the top five richest Twilight stars is Nikki Reed. The actress — who played Rosalie Hale in the famous vampire saga — is estimated to have a net worth of $12 million. Nikki became known in 2003 after starring in the teen drama Thirteen for which she even earned an Independent Spirit Award for Best Debut Performance.
Besides acting, Nikki is also a musician, and she and her ex-husband Paul McDonald's song "All I've Ever Needed" is on The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2 soundtrack.
Nikki has taken some time away from acting to be a mom. But with all that she earned from Twilight, there are no money worries for Nikki or her husband, Ian Somerhalder.
4 Anna Kendrick — Net Worth $20 Million
Number four on the list goes to Anna Kendrick who played Jessica Stanley in the Twilight saga. While Anna certainly wasn’t one of the leads in the vampire franchise — she definitely rose to prominence after it, although many of her fans today forget she was even in the movie!
She has since had notable roles in movies such as Up in the Air (2019), Into the Woods (2014), A Simple Favor (2018) as well as the musical franchise Pitch Perfect.
Anna is estimated to have a net worth of $20 million. Not too shabby for this hard-working actress who finally took a bit of time for herself and decided not to work quite as hard in 2023.
3 Taylor Lautner — Net Worth $40 Million
Kicking off the top three richest Twilight stars is Taylor Lautner who played Jacob Black in the Twilight saga. Taylor is estimated to have a net worth of $40 million.
Besides the vampire franchise, the 28-year-old actor is also known for his roles in Cheaper by the Dozen 2, The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl in 3-D, and Abduction, as well as the television, shows Cuckoo and Scream Queens.
Despite making it big in the past decade, fans noticed they don't see Taylor all that much, and considering his lack of roles in the past few years, it's no surprise he hasn't been on our radar. This is all by choice, however, as Taylor has decided to back away from Hollywood for now. Perhaps he will come back at some point, but if not, he has plenty of money to do whatever makes him happy.
2 Kristen Stewart — Net Worth $70 Million
The runner-up on the list of the richest Twilight stars is Kristen Stewart. Kristen played the lead role of Bella Swan in the film series. She currently has an estimated net worth of $70 million.
Besides Twilight, the 30-year-old actress is also known for her roles in movies such as Panic Room (2002), Snow White and the Huntsman (2012), and Charlie's Angels (2019).
Kristen also appeared in the film surrounding Princess Diana's life titled, Spencer. Kristen was nominated for an Oscar for her performance and while she did not win, it definitely upped her star power in Hollywood.
1 Robert Pattinson — Net Worth $100 Million
Wrapping the list up at spot number one is Robert Pattinson who played the iconic role of Edward Cullen in the Twilight saga. As fans of the actor already know, he actually began his acting career by playing Cedric Digory in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire in 2005.
After Twilight, the 34-year-old starred in movies such as Remember Me (2010), Water for Elephants (2011), and he is currently expected to star in the upcoming 2021 movie The Batman. Robert is estimated to have a net worth of $100 million. A feat that is not surprising given his presence as Batman in The Batman trilogy.
