Claire Danes – Net Worth: $35 million

Homeland was quite a hit, and Carrie Mathison played a huge part in making the series fun and thrilling to watch. The actress behind the character was Claire Danes. She described her experience on the series as life-changing. In an interview, she recalled becoming part of the TV series as a newly-married person and left as a mother of two. The star also liked how each episode of the series was well-researched and that they had been talking to political insiders to gain more insights.

Before Homeland, though, the famed Romeo + Juliet actress has appeared in various movies like The Hours, A Kid Like Jake, and Brokedown Palace. Danes was named among the most influential women in the world and got a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame back in 2015. As a matter of fact, she has won many accolades as an actress. Danes also wrote an introduction to a book written by Neil Gaiman in 1997. On top of that, she is a feminist and a philanthropic person pouring some of her investments into charity work. Is there anything this beloved Hollywood figure can’t do?
