Very few actors in the industry can even dream of what Daniel Day-Lewis achieved in his career. The actor, often considered one of the greatest in the industry, has made a huge name for his detailed research behind every role. However, even after having 3 Oscars and numerous hits, his net worth is lower than most of his contemporaries including Denzel Washington.
Although Denzel Washington is only 2 years older than Daniel Day-Lewis, the latter’s net worth is not even close to theEqualizerstar. With numerous box office hits, Washington has also been a commercially successful star. Interestingly, Day-Lewis, even after having such a low net worth, did not need work for 7 years before finally announcing his comeback in 2024.
Daniel Day-Lewis always prioritized quality over quantity
Daniel Day-Lewishas garnered widespread appreciation over the years for his intense method acting. Being one of the best English actors, he gave us iconic hits likeThere Will Be Blood,Lincoln, andIn The Name Of The Father. Still, his net worth is only $40 Million (seeCelebrity Net Worth) as he always goes through an extensive research process before playing a role.

On the other hand,Denzel Washington, who is only 2 years older than him stands in a far better position financially with $300 Million (viaCelebrity Net Worth). While one may wonder what makes him so ahead of Day-Lewis financially, it should be remembered that Washington has a more diverse filmography with varied roles.
Although theLincolnfame invested significant time in each of his roles, Denzel Washington acted in a larger variety. The 69-year-old actor has played roles across multiple genres. Presently, he is also gearing up for the release of Ridley Scott’sGladiator II.
It must be noted that unlike Denzel Washington, who is actively working to date, Daniel Day-Lewis took a 7-year hiatus. TheGandhiactor retired from acting in 2017 after working in Paul Thomas Anderson’sPhantom Thread. It is very impressive that despite having a lower net worth than most other actors, he managed to stay away from his acting career for such a long time.
