Off-screen, however, the cast members’ fortunes differ dramatically with one actor holding the title of the richest in the ensemble.

Jenna Ortega

Jenna Ortega reprises her breakout role as Wednesday, the sharp-witted psychic sleuth navigating fresh mysteries at Nevermore Academy. The 20-year-old’s global recognition from Wednesday has boosted her net worth to an estimated $5 million: a strong figure for her age, though far from the highest among her castmates, The Richest reported.

Hunter Doohan

Hunter Doohan, who portrays Tyler Galpin, a charming barista turned Hyde monster, holds an estimated net worth of $400,000. Doohan’s career spanning indie film to TV appearances including a role in Marvel’s Daredevil: Born Again has helped him generate wealth in recent times.

Billie Piper

Somehow able to bridge the very distinguished dual legacy of esteemed actor and once-at-the-peak of teen pop stardom with Season Two as Isadora Capri, Head of Music at Nevermore, Billie Piper culminates her versatility. With estimated earnings of $12 million, a third of which she took home as royalties, Billie Piper has, over two decades, successfully made a name for herself in the television arena, with titles such as Doctor Who, Penny Dreadful, and I Hate Suzie.

Steve Buscemi

Debuting as Barry Dort, Nevermore's new pyro-kinetic principal, is legendary Steve Buscemi. His name draws heavy acclaim from decades of work, among which include Reservoir Dogs, Boardwalk Empire, and Fargo. His long career has amassed an estimated $35 million, placing him among the wealthiest stars in the cast.
