What Is Saoirse Ronan's Net Worth?
Saoirse Ronan may have a name that's hard to pronounce, but that hasn't stopped her from finding success in Hollywood and bringing in an impressive personal fortune at the same time. While she may not have as much money as her Little Women costar Emma Watson, the American-born, Irish-raised actress — who told Vogue in 2018 that she "still get[s] completely shocked" that anyone knows who she is because, in her mind, she's "not ... famous" — is still undeniably rich.
Ronan has around $7 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth, and can thank her many onscreen roles for much of that money. Following a few smaller gigs, the actress caught Hollywood's attention in 2007's Atonement, which she appeared in when she was just 12 years old. Earning her an Academy Award nomination, that was followed by notable roles in The Lovely Bones and Hanna, as well as three more Oscar noms for her work in Brooklyn, Lady Bird, and Little Women.
Each of these honors has not only made her a sought after star for new projects, but it's also boosted her earning potential in other highly lucrative ways.
Saoirse Ronan scored a deal with Calvin Klein
Saoirse Ronan's success in Hollywood — specifically her multiple Academy Award nominations — is worth more than just prestige. "When Oscar nominees step onto the red carpet ... they'll be auditioning for perhaps the role of a lifetime: brand ambassador (formerly known as 'model')," as WWD puts it.
"A celebrity's standing determines their payday for endorsements," WWD also notes. While "an up-and-coming artist can ask for $100,000 to $300,000 to appear in an ad campaign," most deals tend to top that and are in the range of $500,000 to $1 million but can potentially climb as high as $3 million.
Ronan enjoyed the spoils of this situation in 2018 when she signed a particularly buzzworthy deal, teaming up with Lupita Nyong'o for a Calvin Klein perfume campaign. While we don't know exactly how much Ronan was paid, it likely wasn't chump change considering she was working with one of the biggest brands in the world.
