The Marvel Cinematic Universe is introducing fans to a whole new group of powerful beings in Eternals. We may have had to say goodbye to icons like Iron Man, Captain America, and Black Widow, but that was just gearing fans up for a new generation of superheroes. We have officially entered phase four of the MCU after Avengers Endgame completed phase three. Marvel introduced us to television series like WandaVision, The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, Loki, What If, and on November 24, Hawkeye. We finally got to see Scarlett Johannson star in her first solo film, Black Widow, and meet martial arts legend Shang-Chi . Now we will finally meet the legendary Eternals.
The Eternals were sent to Earth by the Celestials to fight against the evil Deviants and defend all of humanity. The individuals that make up these godlike creatures are one powerhouse of a cast. They were truly handpicked by the gods and fans are ecstatic to see what they bring to the MCU. The expectations are high but if anyone can do it, it's them. Let's check out this star-studded cast of Eternals and see how they attained their massive net worths.
11 Lauren Ridloff: $800,000
Lauren Ridloff is an American actress known for her role as Connie on the television series The Walking Dead. She will be the first deaf hero to ever enter the franchise, starring as the super fast Eternal Makkari.
Ridloff stated, "It makes so much sense to have this diversity and representation within the MCU because what the MCU is offering the world is amazing. They're offering a way for us to hope, to be able to get up and keep going and fight for what's important. More and more people are starting to see themselves in that universe, and that's powerful."
10 Lia McHugh: Estimates Range From $50K To $2 Million
McHugh, known for her roles in Totem and The Lodge, is not as well known as her fellow co-stars, but she took this opportunity as a chance to learn as much as she could from her more famous colleagues. At 14 years old, landing a Marvel role is a pretty good start! Sprite may look like a child, but she is also thousands of years old like the others.
9 Brian Tyree Henry: $1.6 Million
Brian Tyree Henry's character, Phastos, is an openly gay Eternal and married with a family. This would make him one of the few confirmed LGBTQ+ superheroes in the MCU.
8 Gemma Chan: $6 Million
You may recognize Gemma Chan from the hit romantic comedy, Crazy Rich Asians. Chan also previously entered the MCU as Minn-Erva, one of the members of Kree Starforce, in Captain Marvel. Gemma Chan landed the part as Sersi, who has been in love with Ikaris for centuries. Fans can't wait to see a "marvelous" romance blossom on-screen between Richard Madden and Gemma Chan.
7 Kumail Nanjiani: $8 Million
Kumail is a Pakistani-American comedian, actor, screenwriter, and podcaster. He is known for his role as Dinesh in the HBO comedy series Silicon Valley and for his role in The Big Sick. This film became one of the most acclaimed films of 2017 and put Kumail on the map as a serious actor. He will star as the Eternal, Kingo, for which he trained and got in amazing shape.
6 Richard Madden: $8 Million
Richard Madden pierced all of our hearts during his breakout role as Robb Stark in Game Of Thrones. After his tragic death in season three, also known as the Red Wedding, fans have been waiting for The King in the North to return to the screen. In 2015, Madden played Prince Charming alongside Lily James in Disney's Cinderella. His addition to the Marvel Universe as the leader Ikaris was well worth the wait. Thankfully, this time around, Madden has the ability to fly and shoot beams of light from his eyes, as well as the ability to live forever.
5 Barry Keoghan: $12 Million
The Irishman Barry Keoghan is best known for his role in Christopher Nolan's Dunkirk. He will be portraying Druig, an Eternal with the ability to manipulate other people's thoughts.
4 Kit Harington: $14 Million
Another member from the Game of Thrones family has taken a deep dive into the Marvel stratosphere. Yes, Jon Snow, also known as Aegon of Houses Targaryen and Stark, Sixth of His Name, King of the Andals and the First Men, Lord of the Seven Kingdoms, and Protector of the Realm, is officially in the building. In short, Kit Harington has officially hung up his cloak and has thrown on his Black Knight attire. With the combination of GOT and Marvel on his resume, Harington's net worth may gain a few more zeros soon.
3 Don Lee: $25 Million
Don Lee is one of the most successful actors in South Korea and his break-out role was in Train to Busan. In 2019, he joined the cast of Eternals as Gilgamesh which will be his Hollywood debut!
2 Angelina Jolie: $120 Million
Angelina Jolie will be playing the role of the almighty warrior Thena. This blockbuster project is nothing new to Jolie who starred as Maleficient in both Disney films of the same name. One of her earlier successful roles was in Mr. & Mrs. Smith alongside her now ex-husband Brad Pitt with whom she shares six children. She has been one of the highest-paid actresses in the world for a very long time making $20-30 million a year.
1 Salma Hayek: $200 Million
Salma Hayek has the highest net worth on this list of talented actors and actresses. The Oscar-nominated actress has had a hell of a career and it doesn't hurt that she's married to a billionaire. She played Adam Sandler's chic wife in both Grown Ups films, she was in Bliss with Owen Wilson and the Hitman's Wife's Bodyguard with Ryan Reynolds. Now she is starring as Ajak the wise, healer of the Eternals squad.
