Renowned actress and successful producer Hilary Swank have been in the entertainment business for long enough for fans to be curious about her net worth. Swank made her debut as an actress in the year 1992, with the television show Camp Wilder and another minor role in the famous Buffy, the vampire slayer.
While the actress has a long list of critics and fans approved works under her belt, she is most prominently known for playing a trans-male in the movie Boys Don’t Cry, which came out in the year 1999, and a rookie boxer in the film Million Dollar Baby that came out in the year 2004.
These two performances actually got the actress the Academy Awards for Best Actress. The forty-eight years old actress was also listed in the Times’ 100 Most Influential People in the World in 2005. Swank made her debut as a producer with a film called Amelia, which was a biography of Amelia Hart, released in 2009.
With a life as busy and chaotic as hers, the actress took her sweet time deciding on who the love of her life was going to be. It was after two years of dating a businessman named Philip Schneider they tied the knot on August 18th, 2018, and very recently, on April 10th, 2023, the couple announced the arrival of their twin kids.
Ever since the actress managed to establish her presence in the industry firmly, she has made sure to give back to society, which has led her to be involved in being a part of various campaigns set out to make the world a bit more bearable.
She has always taken a moment to advocate for animal rights and has even founded her own organization called the Hilroo organization that hopes to bring together teens and dogs that need healing, so in a way, they work together.
Even though Swank has been working for so long, she has made sure to devote time to her family too. It was in 2014 when she decided to take a break after working without a break for quite a few years. She later revealed the reason for the three-year break to be with her father, who had, apparently, required a lung transplant, and Swank wanted to stay by his side while he recovered.
When the actress is not a filial daughter or a humanist, she is known to have worked her butt off not just by being an actress or a producer but also as the owner of a luxurious brand that, just like her, works towards all the right reasons.
Hilary Swank’s Net Worth
Being in the business for more than thirty-one years has done the actress good enough to enjoy a comfortable life. As of 2023, the actress’s net worth stands at a whopping $70 million. It has to be noted that the most notable works that she put out like the films Million Dollar Baby and Boys Don’t Cry, actually added very little to her then financial standing.
It was the lead role in the film, The Affair of the Necklace, that got her first big pay, and it has been growing bigger ever since. But it is not just acting that has helped the actress accumulate all her wealth but also her producer gigs that have added greatly to her worth.
Her first production, Amelia, turned up great profits for her and even helped her get a contract with Warner Bros.. Ever since, she has established her production house called 2S Films, which co-owns with Molly Smith, a fellow producer.
Swank has other really successful hustles too, which include her brand called ‘Mission Statement.’ It is a high-end brand that works to promote comfort in women, pushing them to wear however they feel. It is also an environmentally cautious brand that indulges in making clothes with environmentally friendly material.
Apart from her sustainable clothing line, Swank has also dabbled in real estate. Back in 2002, she bought a property in Manhatten, which she then sold for around $7 million in 2008. She sold another property in the year 2021 for an approximate amount of $10.5 million. It is also known that in 2016, the actress bought a ranch property where she keeps her rescued animals and takes care of them with her husband.
The actress has enough to her name for her to drop her work for the coming years, and considering her family-oriented personality and the arrival of her twins just this month, she is likely to take a break from being on the screens and focus on her production house and her kids only.
