It also has a sequel and a third installment, which is scheduled for released on December 22, 2017. This list takes a look at just how much those song-singing actors are worth these days.
10. Anna Kendrick
Estimated Net Worth: $14 Million. So Anna Kendrick has basically been nominated for a million awards right from the get-go of her career. She began developing her acting and singing chops at an early age and in 1998 she appeared in the Broadway production of High Society for which she received a Tony Award nomination. She made her film debut a couple of years later in Camp and was once again nominated for prestigious awards. She became a fan favorite after starring as Jessica Stanley in The Twilight Saga, and in 2009 earned her first Golden Globe and Academy Award nomination for her role in Up in the Air. When the non-fiction work Pitch Perfect: The Quest for Collegiate A Cappella Glory by Mickey Rapkin was adapted to film, co-producer Elizabeth Banks said there was no one besides Anna to play the lead role. “I saw Anna in Up in the Air and thought it was the most exquisite, elegant, balanced, sublime performance. Anna was our first choice for the role of Beca.” And the role has shot her to Hollywood’s A-list! Anna is currently busy with countless projects including Pitch Perfect 3. Her prolific career has generated an estimated net worth of $14 million!
