If movie prodigy had a face, it would be Jordan Peele. One can comprehend and marvel at his long list of achievements all day, and it still wouldn't be enough to encapsulate the entirety of his genius. Having made his way to the top, Jordan Peele's net worth is estimated to be $50 million, and the amount doesn't really come off as a surprise since he has had such an extensive career, directing, producing, and acting in films.

Jordan Peele was born in New York City on February 21, 1979, to mother, Lucinda Williams, and father, Hayward Peele. Raised by a single mother, the actor attended a computer school in Manhattan. After finding his true calling, Peele dropped out to form a comedy duo with Rebecca Drysdale, his college roommate, and future work-friend. Married to Chelsea Peretti, Jordan is also the father of Beaumont Gino Peele.

Net Worth and Sources of Income

The first African American to win the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay, Jordan Peele's net worth is estimated to be $50 million. He has accumulated this colossal income from his prolific career as a director, actor, and producer.

Jordan Peele's income, net worth

Gathering international prominence from his directorial debut, Get Out, Jordan Peele had everyone's jaw dropped. The film that helped him make a name for himself as a director, raking in multi-million dollar deals, was written, produced, and directed on a mere $4.5 million budget. Nevertheless, the film blew up so terrifically, it pulled in a massive $255 million worldwide in box office collection.

Some of Jordan's other directorial hits include The Last O.G, MADtvUs starring Lupita Nyong'o, and the Black Panther actor, Winston Duke.

Later on, Comedy Central interested Peele into starting his own series, which led him to initiate Key and Peele with Rebecca Drysdale. The show lasted for 55 episodes, and the impeccable comedic implementation in that series as well as other films has led him to significant success and bumped up Jordan Peele's net worth a great deal.

Along with Key and Peele, Peele has also had many other flicks on his slate, including American Dad! Keanu, and Netflix’s hilariously raunchy Big Mouth, all of which were critically acclaimed

Is the Founder of Film Production Company

Jordan Peele is the founder of Monkeypaw Productions, a company emphasizing on building artistic and thought-provoking films and shows across all media platforms.

Under its belt, the production has got some of the best-produced and commercially successful movies of all time. Some of these movies alongside their box office collection are listed here:

Movies Box Office Collection
Get Out $255 Million
BlacKkKlansman $93 Million
Us $255 Million

Evidently, the last few years have been golden years for the fantastic star. Added to these films are also his lucrative series like The Last O.G., Lorena and Weird City. Moreover, his production company which is partnered with Universal, Amazon, Netflix, HBO, TBS, Focus Features, CBS AllAccess, Youtube Originals has certainly brought in a tremendous profit for the American producer. We are pretty sure Jordan Peele's earnings must have been heavily backed from these massive hits too.

Upcoming Projects

Peele has numerous upcoming projects up his sleeve for 2020, most of them deriving from his production company. The Twilight Zone is set to be revived by him, and he will be producing the new HBO horror series, Lovecraft Country, which is based on Matt Ruff's novel of the same name. The 10-episode season is set to arrive mid-year, with the date yet to be announced and stars include Billy Porter, Jenna Elfman, Chris Meloni, Gillian Jacobs, Joel McHale, and Jimmi Simpson. Furthermore, a multitude of other movies are bound to release under his production company.
