Brad Pitt | Entrepreneur

Award-winning actor Brad Pitt is undoubtedly one of Tinseltown’s highest-paid entertainers, earning a major film salary of $20 million in recent years. He could also earn as much as $30 million from a movie project through backend points and bonuses. In November 2001, the actor co-founded Plan B Entertainment with his former wife and fellow celebrity, Jennifer Aniston.

Plan B has produced dozens of blockbusters, including Troy, Eat Pray Love, The Time Traveler’s Wife, Moneyball, 12 Years a Slave, and Ad Astra. In a recent interview, he said he enjoys producing more than acting. As a film producer, Pitt has actually earned untold additional millions. We could easily assume that he made more money in producing than in acting. Anyway, he also spent $67 million on a 1,200-acre winery investment in France called Chateau Miraval with his then-wife Angelina Jolie.
