    Actor, producer, and “musician” Bruce Willis has an estimated net worth of $250 million. When it comes to starring guys in Hollywood, Bruce has always been among the top earners. The earnings he has received from movies alone have totaled hundreds of millions of dollars since the late 1980s.

    Thanks to a large share of the film’s profits, he raked in $114 million from 1999’s The Sixth Sense. He was paid $14 million upfront. That’s the second-highest sum of money ever made by a single performer in a film. In spite of the fact that Keanu Reeves made $156 million over the course of TWO Matrix films, he holds the overall record. Bruce’s Sixth Sense compensation is the greatest in Hollywood history, according to some.

    Earlier Life

    He was born on March 19, 1955, in Idar-Oberstein, Germany to Bruce and Barbara Willis. Florence, David, and Robert are his three younger siblings (deceased).

    Bruce’s father, an American soldier, was born in Germany, but the family returned to New Jersey when Bruce was only two years old.

    Many of Bruce’s peers made fun of him because of his speech impediment in high school. As soon as he started performing on stage, his stammer disappeared.

    Success

    Bruce landed the part of David Addison Jr. on Moonlighting in 1985 after an audition. Bruce drew on his past expertise as a private investigator to play Cybil Shepherd for five seasons between 1985 and 1989. The program made Willis a household name and garnered him a Golden Globe and an Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series.

    When Willis became a household name, Seagram engaged him to market their Golden Wine Cooler. Over the course of two years, Willis was compensated $7 million. To put the value in today’s terms, it’s equivalent to around $17 million. When Willis gave up drinking in 1988, his contract with Seagrams came to an end.

His highest-earning film to date, The Sixth Sense, was a critical and economic success, grossing $673 million worldwide.
