ADAM SANDLER – 54

Who would have thought that the new cast member of Saturday Night Live in 1990 would turn to be one of the most sought-after stars of today? Adam Sandler had a humble beginning. He started out small, doing TV guestings and performing in comedy clubs until he met the comedian Dennis Miller who recommended him to join SNL. From here, the rest is history. After his stint in the famous late-night show, he started doing movies.

Although his first few films weren’t a big hit, his 1995 film Billy Madison turned out to be financially successful. It was then followed by Bulletproof, The Wedding Singer, The Waterboy, and the list goes on. Adam is now one of Hollywood’s most bankable stars, earning more than $2 billion at the box office. Now, don’t be surprised if the producers love to put their investment money on him, knowing it will succeed.
