Richest Twilight stars of 2022, net worths ranked: Robert Pattinson will star in The Batman movie wh

LGBTQ+ icon Kristen Stewart may be engaged to screenwriter Dylan Meyer now, but in her Twilight Saga films heyday she actually dated Robert Pattinson. After getting together in 2009, the couple split in 2012 following the reveal of her affair with Snow White and the Huntsman director Rupert Sanders.

During that time, Pattinson’s profile rose, with the salary he was earning at the end of the franchise reaching US$25 million for the two films, plus 7.5 per cent of the gross takings.

It has been widely reported that for his next film, The Batman, he only earned US$3 million. Still, now 35, Pattinson has come a long way since his breakout role in 2005’s Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire where he played Cedric Diggory. Back then, his entire estimated net worth was only US$2 million.

2. Kristen Stewart: US$70 million

Kristen Stewart, 31, began acting at the age of nine, appearing in Disney’s The Thirteenth Year (1999) and alongside Jodie Foster in 2002’s Panic Room. She earned US$2 million playing Bella Swan in the first Twilight movie – a salary that increased to US$25 million plus a 7.5 per cent cut of box office earnings for the final two instalments.

Stewart went on to earn US$9.5 million for Snow White and the Huntsman (2011) and received her first Oscar nomination in 2022 for the Princess Diana biopic, Spencer.

Like other Twilight co-stars, LA-native Stewart has dropped millions of dollars on homes in California, but also has a Manhattan penthouse and a hideaway in Malibu.

3. Taylor Lautner: US$40 million

Lautner, 30, raked in US$45 million from the Twilight Saga, increasing his US$1 million salary from the first movie to earning a 2.5 per cent cut of earnings on the third flick and US$12.5 million for each of the final two instalments, Breaking Dawn – Part One and Breaking Dawn – Part Two.

Before starring as Jacob Black in all five films in the Twilight franchise, Lautner won small roles on TV shows including My Wife and Kids and The Bernie Mac Show. Since then, he’s become an A-list heartthrob who dated Taylor Swift and landed roles in Grown Ups 2 and Cheaper by the Dozen.

His success has enabled him to buy multiple homes in California, including a new build in Agoura Hills, bought for US$3.8 million in late 2020.

4. Anna Kendrick: US$20 million

She may not have had as big a role in the franchise as Lautner, but Anna Kendrick, 36, has arguably achieved bigger fame outside Twilight.

Kendrick played Jessica Stanley, a friend of Stewart’s character Bella, but went on to star with Rebel Wilson in the Pitch Perfect films (2012 and 2015) and voice a character in animated films Trolls (2016) and Trolls World Tour (2020).

Pitch Perfect was not the first time Kendrick showed off her musical talent: she was nominated for a Tony (best featured actress in a musical) for her performance in Broadway’s High Society (1998).

Years before portraying Stanley in the vampire-themed films, she also starred in the Danny DeVito-produced motion picture Camp at the age of 15. Now she owns a mansion in the Hollywood Hills worth at least US$7 million.

5. Nikki Reed: US$12 million

Nikki Reed, 33, started earning her millions long before portraying Rosalie in the Twilight flicks. In 2003, she starred alongside Evan Rachel Wood in coming-of-age film Thirteen. Reed was only 14 years old when the film grossed US$10.1 million, giving her bank balance a substantial boost as the teen had co-written the film with director Catherine Hardwicke.

The Lords of Dogtown actress has also made small appearances in The O.C. television show plus Hanson music video Get the Girl Back and Lady Gaga’s Til It Happens to You.

Reed was married to musician Paul McDonald before tying the knot with her current husband, actor Ian Somerhalder (net worth US$8 million), while a career as a singer-songwriter has also contributed to her earnings.
