Everything We Know About Olivia Munn’s Net Worth (And How She Earned It)

Highlights

• Olivia Munn’s net worth of $15 million comes from acting, business opportunities, and real estate investments.
• Munn’s successful acting career, including roles in shows like The Newsroom and movies like X-Men: Apocalypse, has contributed significantly to her net worth.
• Munn’s smart business moves, such as investing in start-up companies like Uber, and endorsement deals, like her collaboration with Proactiv, have helped her accumulate wealth beyond acting alone.

Olivia Munn has been a part of the entertainment industry since she was in her early twenties. Munn has also had her name in the tabloids for run-ins with Taylor Swift. She also had her name in the press when her relationship with Aaron Rogers ended. But Munn has also made herself a fortune. While some of her net worth can be attributed to a successful film, television, and voice acting career, it was smart business moves that pushed Munn into becoming a multi-millionaire.

These days, unless an actor is starring in blockbuster film roles, one after another, more often than not, side deals are being done. This is seen in the form of endorsements, modeling, real estate purchases, and business investments. The more that an entertainer can turn themselves into a brand or use their money to venture into areas other than entertainment, the better off they will be when and/or if their careers stall.

Munn has seamlessly been able to have a successful acting career and take that money earned and grow it. Here is everything known about Munn’s net worth and how she earned it.

With a career that has lasted nearly two decades, Munn has done well for herself in the entertainment industry. With dozens of credits to her name on both the big and small screens, much of Munn’s net worth has come from her acting. Munn’s $15 million net worth is not from acting alone. She has quite the business acumen that has helped to boost her fortune over the years.

From savvy business deals to knowing when to invest in start-up companies, Munn has done well for herself. Throw in some endorsement deals and the title of landlord, and it is easy to see how Munn has made herself a multi-millionaire with a net worth that only continues to grow year after year.

Olivia Munn’s Acting Career Started Her Earning

Most of Olivia Munn’s millions likely come from acting

Munn began her professional acting career in 2004. However, it was not until 2010 that Munn’s career began to take off when she was hired as a correspondent on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. From there, roles in The Newsroom, X-Men: Apocalypse, and Miles From Tomorrowland followed, making Munn a bulk of her net worth.

Major projects that Munn has been in over the years include:

These are just some of the 55 projects that Munn has worked on over the years. More recently, Munn has had to slow down after her diagnosis of fibromyalgia. That has not stopped Munn from acting though, and while her income has not been disclosed, a good portion of her net worth is thanks to her career on both the big and small screen.

Olivia Munn Invested In Start-Ups (And Earned Big Returns)

Munn invested in Uber at a valuation of $290 million which has since grown to $55 billion

Munn is no stranger to being approached for business deals. While some of them are clearly not winners based on their business models, others have potential. As such, Munn has been investing in start-up companies for years, which has been very lucrative for the actor.

Before Uber went public, Munn was approached to invest in the company. While Munn did not know what Uber was, she had a good feeling about it. Listening to her instincts, Munn invested, and that investment paid off in spades.

“When Uber was brought to me I didn’t know what it was,” Munn explained in 2019. “I like to go towards brands I feel are disruptive or are creating a new space.”

As a result of her investing in the company when it had a $290 million valuation, Munn did quite well for herself. After the company went public, its worth shot through the ceiling, growing to a valuation of over $55 billion.

Other companies that Munn has invested in include Wag, Vital Proteins, and Skinny Dip Almonds.

“If I can find a need in [a company or its products], I will invest,” Munn stated.

Real Estate Investments Round Out Olivia’s Portfolio

Olivia’s earnings from rental properties may total $18,000 per month

Munn and her boyfriend, John Mulaney wanted to raise their son together, but Munn’s home was in Los Angeles and Mulaney was touring in New York and Chicago. Munn immediately saw an opportunity to make money.

After moving to New York City she did not sell her home. Instead of selling her Hollywood estate, Munn rented it out, making quite a bit of money.

In 2009, Munn purchased her Hollywood estate for $905,000. It is unclear if Munn priced out her home to see what it was worth in today’s market or if she just wanted to be able to return to Los Angeles after Mulaney’s comedy tour wrapped up in 2024.

However, the decision was made to rent out the home. The asking price for rent was $18,000 per month, according to Celebrity Net Worth.

Olivia Munn’s Endorsement Deals Added To Her Net Worth

Munn has earned millions from various endorsement deals

Munn has been involved with several endorsement deals during her career. Some of them, according to Celebrity Net Worth include Neutrogena, Nike, and Pepsi. While those companies likely paid Munn well to be the face of their campaigns, there is one endorsement deal that has potentially made Munn millions: her collaboration with Proactiv.

“Proactiv spends between $12 million and $15 million a year on endorsements,” Greg Renker, co-owner of Guthy-Renker, the company that markets Proactiv.

In doing so, contracts for celebrities who endorse the product have been rumored to be $3 million. Celebrities who were mentioned to have received this amount include Justin Bieber and Jessica Simpson. Others who have also received a multi-million dollar payday include Katy Perry and Avril Lavigne.

It is not disclosed how much Munn has made from her time with Proactiv. But, given the other celebrity paydays, it is likely she would have been paid quite well for her contract with Guthy-Renker.

All told, Olivia’s diverse investments and collaborations amounted to many millions, though her net worth continues to grow.
