Martin Freeman Net Worth: Hobbit Joins Marvel In Mystery Role, How Much Is ‘Sherlock’ John Watson Making?

Much like pal and "Sherlock" co-star Benedict Cumberbatch, Martin Freeman's net worth has jumpstarted in the past few years, as he's gone from smaller English movies to massive productions like the Avengers-like Marvel movie "Captain America: Civil War" and playing the title character in the new "Hobbit" trilogy.

It's been a great couple of years for the "Sherlock" boys, as critical acclaim rains down on its two stars and even main protagonist Andrew Scott, who will be starring in this year's James Bond film "Spectre," but there's no doubt that Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman's net worth are getting the biggest chunks as they make it in Hollywood - big time!

Back in May, Food World News reported that the actor was about to boost Martin Freeman's net worth further with a new role in the upcoming film, which means he'll also be joining Cumberbatch in the Marvel Cinematic Universe - their third joint project, as they've already starred together not only in "Sherlock" but also in the "Hobbit" movies, as Cumberbatch voiced both dragon Smaug and the Necromancer in the trilogy.

In any case, who Freeman will be playing remains a mystery, though the actor has recently teased further about the film that's going to make Martin Freeman's net worth grow, describing the character to Italian site Bad Taste as being in a "gray" area, not really a good guy or a bad one, prompting fans to wonder again about who he will be playing.

For now, Cinema Blend suggests that the new role that could boost Martin Freeman's net worth could be the Prime Minister of England or a character linked with fictional land Wakanda, the country future MCU addition Black Panther reigns.

In the meantime, projects keep reaching Freeman, who will be next seen in the "Sherlock" Victorian-themed Christmas special.

Currently, Martin Freeman's net worth stands at $15 million according to Celebrity Net Worth - and with so many projects ahead, it's sure to grow quite a bit in the next few years!
