One of the most notorious actors from the 80s, making a name for himself since his first major role in the 1985 film "Ladyhawke" co-starring Michelle Pfeiffer, Matthew Broderick's net worth has been on the rise for the last three decades ... but it's still millions away from the net worth of his "Sex and the City" wife.
Surely, Broderick's best-known role is the title one in the John Hughes 1986 classic "Ferris Bueller's Day Off," in which he played an extremely cool and carefree kid who escapes high school for a day with his friends and wreaks havoc all over town - including a great music number that's now a classic.
After having been in many successful films between the 80s and 90s (from the Oscar-winning film "Glory" to even the beloved Disney animated classic of the 90s, "The Lion King," where he voiced Simba), in the last few years Matthew Broderick's net worth has come mostly from his work in theater, as he's one of the most prolific actors in Broadway.
In the past, Broderick has won two Tony Awards, the most prestigious prize in theater: once in 1983 for his role in "Brighton Beach Memoirs," and the second one in 1995 for starring in the popular musical "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying" - and, of course, both of these awards increased Matthew Broderick's net worth.
A native New Yorker (from Manhattan, no less), he's taken residence, along with his wife Sarah Jessica Parker and their 13 year-old son James Wilkie and their 5 year-old twin daughters Marion Loretta Elwell and Tabitha Hodge, in New York, though the family also spends a lot of time in their holiday home in Ireland and The Hamptons - certainly they can afford it due to Matthew Broderick's net worth!
Currently, Celebrity Net Worth lists Matthew Broderick's net worth as $45 million - just half of Sarah Jessica Parker's net worth, which Food World News listed as $90 million back in October.
