JERRY BRUCKHEIMER – EST. $900 MILLION

Film and television producer Jerry Bruckheimer, to a huge degree, is one of the most powerful men in Hollywood. He is known for having produced some of the most commercially successful films of this generation like Top Gun, Gone in 60 Seconds, Pirates of the Caribbean, and more. He’s also received so many awards and nominations that it would be the height of tediousness to list them down.

The films he produced have grossed more than $16 billion worldwide and have been nominated for 41 Academy Awards (six times), eight Grammy Awards (five times), 23 Golden Globe Awards (four times), and 77 Emmy Awards (17 times). It is absolutely no wonder the man is just $100 million short of attaining billionaire status. But we’re sure that chasm into billionaire-hood will be breached in a few short years, given Bruckheimer’s impressive film output.
