Introduction

Joe Thornton is a Canadian former professional NHL player with an estimated net worth of $60 Million.

In an NHL career spanning 24 seasons, Joe Thornton played for four teams: the Boston Bruins, San Jose Sharks, Toronto Maple Leafs, and Florida Panthers. He played 1,714 games, recording 430 goals and 1,109 assists. As a result, Thornton earned an estimated $111.5 million, which translates to roughly $4.65 million/year.

Quick Facts

He got his start in Ontario’s Canadian leagues, playing for the St. Thomas Stars at the age of 15 in 1994.
During the NHL lockout in 2004, Joe played for the “Davos” before returning to Boston.
When Joe joined the Sharks in 2005, he greatly improved the team’s points in the first year.
Joe helped Canada win a gold medal when he was only 17 years old in 1996.
He made his first appearance at an international event at the Junior World Cup in 1997.

Early Life

Joseph Eric Thornton was born in Ontario, Canada, on July 2, 1979.

Thorton spent his childhood playing minor hockey with the St. Thomas Travellers in his hometown. He skated for the Travelers in “AA” hockey and won an Ontario Minor Hockey Association (OMHA) championship in peewee.

He participated in six games with the Junior B St. Thomas Stars of the Ontario Hockey Association during his early years, recording eight points in six games as a 14-year-old.

OHL Career

Thornton joined the Stars full-time the next season and scored 104 points in 50 games as a 15-year-old before being picked second overall in the 1995 OHL Draft by the Sault St. Marie Greyhounds.

While at the Greyhounds, Joe scored an amazing 76 points in his rookie season and was named the OHL and CHL Rookie of the Year. Thornton’s stats increased to 41 goals and 122 points the following season, finishing second in league scoring. He was nominated to the OHL Second All-Star Team.

NHL Career

Joe was selected by the Boston Bruins as the first overall pick in the 1997 NHL Entry Draft and played with them for seven seasons. He moved to the San Jose Sharks in 2005 and played 14 seasons, including four seasons as club captain and a run to the 2016 Stanley Cup Finals.

Joe then traveled to Europe and played with HC Davos of the Swiss National League A during the unfortunate 2004 to 2005 NHL lockout. He was a member of a line that included fellow NHL players Rick Nash and Niklas Hagman, helping HC Davos win both the championship and the Spengler Cup.

Joe has actively represented Canada on multiple occasions, playing in championship teams in both the 1997 World Junior Championships and the 2004 World Cup of Hockey. He also earned a gold medal while playing for Team Canada at the 2010 Winter Olympics and then again at the 2016 World Cup of Hockey.

After re-signing with the Bruins in 2005, Joe’s three-year, $20 million contract saw him start the season in top form after struggling for a few seasons. But it wasn’t to last, and he was traded to the San Jose Sharks at the end of 2005 – a move that saw him stay for 15 years.

He joined Dan Boyle and Danny Heatley at the iconic club, becoming one of the richest hockey players in the world and ending his first season as the MVP.

While we have precise salary information for approximately 26 films Julie Roberts has starred in, we also have estimates of her combined annual income history from all sources. From the figures above, it’s clear that for Roberts, the early 2000s were the peak of her career, with her earning as much as $50 million in 2000. She was somewhat absent from the industry in the mid-2000s, which led to a drop in earnings, down to an estimated $8 million/year for 2005 and 2006.

Between 2010 and 2018, Roberts typically earned between $12 million and $20 million annually, thanks to impressive paydays from Eat, Pray, Love, Mother’s Day, and Wonder. However, she was no longer commanding the $20+ million per film figure she used to.

2023	Leave the World Behind	$25,000,000
Total Calculated Earnings:		$260,440,000

In the late 1980s, Julia Roberts earned under six figures per film, with paydays of $50,000 for Mystic Pizza (1988) and $90,000 for Steel Magnolias (1989). A year later, when she starred in Pretty Woman, which was arguably the film that launched her mainstream career, Roberts reportedly earned $300,000. The film’s success dramatically increased her earning potential, and before long, she received a $1 million payday for starring in Sleeping With the Enemy. That same year, Roberts also reportedly earned $3 million from Dying Young and $7 million from Hook.

In the mid-late 1990s, Roberts reached a stage where she was being paid upwards of $10 million per film. Her first recorded eight-figure payday came in 1997, when she earned $12 million for My Best Friend’s Wedding. To close out the decade, she received $11 million for Conspiracy Theory (1997), $15 million for Notting Hill (1999), and $17 million for Runaway Bride (1999).

As we briefly mentioned above, the early 2000s were some of the best years of Julia Roberts’ career. This is primarily due to her joining the $20+ million club with roles in Erin Brockovich, The Mexican, and Closer. During this time, her highest-recorded payday was $25 million for starring in Mona Lisa Smile (2003).

There was a short lull in the mid-2000s, but Roberts returned with a $15 million payday for 2009’s Duplicity, followed by $10 million for starring in Eat, Pray Love a year later. From then on, her earnings dropped to between $3 million and $6 million per film.

However, she recently made another comeback in 2023, starring in Leave the World Behind, for which she reportedly received $25 million. This brings Roberts’ earnings for all of her publicly known salaries, if we include her Homecoming salary (more on that below), to a total of $266.4 million. Of course, many films are missing from the list, so the actual number should be significantly higher.

Homecoming Salary

According to a report from Variety, Roberts was paid an estimated $650,000 per episode to star in Homecoming. They initially estimated her salary at $600,000 per episode in 2018 but increased this figure in their 2019 report. The show aired ten episodes in 2018, earning her $6 million.

Highest-Grossing Movies

The majority of Roberts’ highest-grossing films came between 1999 and 2001, the same period during which she made the most money. Those films include Ocean’s Eleven (2001), which grossed $451 million; Notting Hill (1999), which grossed $364 million; Runaway Bride (1999), which grossed $309 million; and Erin Brockovich (2000), which grossed $256 million.

However, none of those films performed better than 1990’s Pretty Woman, which grossed $463 million. The film only cost $14 million to produce, which gave it the highest ROI of Roberts’ career. Other films to make the list include Ocean’s Twelve ($363 million), Wonder ($315 million), and Hook ($301 million).

Here’s a complete list of Julia Roberts’ ten highest-grossing movies:

Pretty Woman – $463 million (1990)
Ocean’s Eleven – $451 million (2001)
Notting Hill – $364 million (1999)
Ocean’s Twelve – $363 million (2004)
Wonder – $315 million (2017)
Runaway Bride – $309 million (1999)
Hook – $301 million (1991)
My Best Friend’s Wedding – $299 million (1997)
Erin Brockovich – $256 million (2000)
Valentine’s Day – $217 million (2010)

Real Estate

The actress likes to invest some of her fortune in real estate, and she owns some incredible properties in the US. She also likes to spend her money on other lavish things, such as clothes. Julia Roberts is the proud owner of a $7 million mansion in Malibu and a lavish apartment in New York, worth a total of $3,8 million.
