Richard Gere – $120 Million

We might have rarely seen him today, but Richard Gere used to be one of the Hollywood A-listers during the 1990s. He is best known as the American Gigolo, which helped him establish a name as one of the entertainment business’ hunk actors. He held this name for almost two decades, becoming the People Magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive in 1999. And he won a Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild Award for playing Billy Flynn in the Oscar-winning musical film “Chicago” (2002).

He is also the king of romantic comedy films during his prime, which probably helped him earn a $120-million fortune. To a certain degree, he becomes an icon in rom-com history. He is one of the most favorite leading men, appearing in the iconic movie Pretty Woman opposite Julia Roberts and others like Runaway Bride and Dr. T & The Woman.
