Highlights

• Piven's career skyrocketed with Entourage, earning him a massive $30 million net worth.
• Real estate transactions and endorsements boosted Piven's wealth even further.
• Despite controversy, Piven's career rebounded, with new projects in the works.

Jeremy Piven has been a mainstay in Hollywood for several decades. His ability to play a memorable supporting character is what helped Piven become a successful working actor, despite not having any leading roles for a good portion of his career.

However, when Piven was cast in Entourage, his life and fortune changed. No longer did Piven have to take the supporting roles. He was a full-fledged main character on the TV series and was paid accordingly. It was because of Entourage that a great deal of Piven's fortune was made. But, some good real estate transactions and endorsements along the way helped Piven to grow his wealth further.

While Piven's career suffered when he was accused of sexual harassment, assault, and misconduct, after Piven took a few-year hiatus out of the spotlight after Entourage, he was able to return to Hollywood. This seemed to not affect Piven's net worth in the least. In fact, Jeremy Piven's net worth is truly massive.

Piven has a net worth of $30 million. The majority of Piven's wealth was earned through his acting career that has spanned decades.

While it took some time for Piven to be seen as anything other than a supporting character, Piven's supporting character roles were so numerous that he was able to build a significant nest egg for himself. Some of the roles that helped to make Piven a household name in a supporting role include:

While Piven began to get more leading roles as a result of proving he could hold his own as the lead in the TV series, Cupid in 1998, it was not until Piven landed the role of Ari Gold in Entourage that his career really started to take off and earned Piven the majority of the fortune he enjoys today.

With a career that has spanned decades, the television and film industry is where Piven earned his massive net worth. While he sustained himself as a working actor with supporting roles for the majority of his career, it was when he was cast in Entourage that Piven's net worth truly skyrocketed.

It has never been disclosed how much Piven made for the first few seasons of Entourage. However, when the show was at the height of its popularity, according to Celebrity Net Worth, Piven was making $350,000 per episode of the show. This salary amounted to Piven earning over $15 million over the course of his eight seasons on the hit HBO series.

Additionally, Piven was paid $2 million to reprise his role in the Entourage movie in 2015. From Entourage alone, Piven made $17 million.

This success led to a discussion of whether there would be a reboot of Entourage. But to date, there does not appear to be any movement on any such project.

Piven has also had some lucrative endorsement deals over the years. Some of the companies with which Piven has worked include:

• Levi's
• Lokai
• M. Cohen Designs
• Mezcal

Piven has also made his foray back into the comedy circuit. While it has not been disclosed how much he makes per appearance, it must be paying well enough for Piven to want to continue to pursue it, given that he has been very busy as of late. This is because Piven has five projects coming out in the future that are in various stages of production. With his time being short, Piven likely would not take jobs that were not lucrative.

The homes that Piven has owned and sold over the past couple of decades include:

Additionally, Piven has been known to give his money to different charities over the years. Some of the charities that Piven has supported over the years include:

While Piven does not live a flashy lifestyle, it is clear that he still lives comfortably. It is his lack of extravagance that has allowed Piven to maintain his wealth over the years, and will continue to do so for years to come.
