Will Ferrell’s net worth: How much money does the 'SNL' star have in 2025?
Impressive side hustles have added to the comedic actor’s nine-figure fortune.

If it seems like Will Ferrell is everywhere lately, your mind’s not playing practical jokes. Whether he’s chain smoking in his “Elf” costume at a LA Kings hockey game, starring in “SNL 50: The Anniversary Special,” appearing in the credits of the HBO series “Succession” or getting a “Wolverine”-style makeover from his friend and “Spirited” costar, Ryan Reynolds, Will Ferrell isn’t just a funny actor; he’s also a comedic icon and a cultural juggernaut.
And, he’s very rich.
From his humble beginnings with the Los Angeles improv troupe The Groundlings to his breakout performances on “Saturday Night Live,” Ferrell’s signature brand of outrageous humor has made audiences laugh for more than three decades—and earned the funnyman substantial net wealth.
At one point, Ferrell was one of Hollywood’s highest-paid actors, consistently commanding $20 million per film. He’s also taken a leading role behind the camera in recent years, serving as executive producer on hit series like “Succession” and “Dead to Me.”
Ferrell’s side hustles include co-creating the Funny or Die website brand—it has a combined total of 40 million followers and was recently sold for an undisclosed amount.
