Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted August 14, 2016 Hash Fellow Share Posted August 14, 2016 In a click-list of Star Wars actors' current net worths, Kenny Baker came in at $2 Million. I guess he did well. Net worth of 9 original 'Star Wars' actors Did Rodney or someone else with mod access mod my post? Because I know I didn't make that edit. A drive-by good deed-doer. Not I!

*A:M User* Roger Posted August 14, 2016 Author *A:M User* Share Posted August 14, 2016 Hmmm. I guess that shall have to be a mystery then. Yeah I found a similar link, Peter Mayhew was listed at 500k which seemed a bit low given the amounts those movies have grossed. I was surprised David Prowse was as wealthy as he is, I had heard he was on bad terms with George Lucas and I've never seen him in anything other than Star Wars and Clockwork Orange. I'm not sure what else he's been in but I guess he's managed to do well for himself. Everyone else listed seems like they've done ok although I doubt their fortunes came from those particular 3 movies. I was surprised Carrie Fisher was listed as high as she was, script doctor must be a profitable profession. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted August 14, 2016 Hash Fellow Share Posted August 14, 2016 David Prowse seems to have had a long career in small and supporting roles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
