She's one of the most recognized actresses in the past two decades, ever since taking on roles in movies like "Dangerous Liaisons," which is to say that Uma Thurman's net worth is the consequence of many years in the business - even if she is now surrounded by controversy.
Known for many things, like her high cheekbones and being Quentin Tarantino's muse (having starred in three of his movies: "Pulp Fiction" and "Kill Bil" in its two volumes, which Tarantino wrote for her), Uma Thurman's net worth has been well earned after starring in some contemporary classics.
Nominated for an Oscar for her work in "Pulp Fiction" co-starring John Travolta, Bruce Willis and Samuel L. Jackson (among others), Uma Thurman's net worth is a reflection of all the work she's been doing in the past years, including movies like the dystopian "Gattaca," where she met Ethan Hawke, whom she ended up marrying and later divorcing.
Other films that have increased Uma Thurman's net worth include the adaptation of the popular children's book "Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief," the television adaptation of the Broadway Mel Brooks musical "The Producers," playing DC villain Poison Ivy in the critical flop "Batman & Robin," where George Clooney played Bruce Wayne and, most recently, Thurman also co-starred in the Lars Von Trier 2013 "Nymphomaniac" films.
Recently, Uma Thurman's net worth has been making news after appearing in a red carpet event to promote her latest project, a miniseries called "The Slap" where she'll be co-starring with Peter Sarsgaard, Thandie Newton, Zachary Quinto and Brian Cox.
As Food World News reported, Thurman looked unrecognizable in the event, wearing little make-up and obviously having gotten a lot of surgery done recently, which sparked comparisons to Renée Zellweger's plastic surgery controversy from last fall.
Currently, Celebrity Net Worth lists Uma Thurman's net worth as $45 million.
