How much money does Jon Cryer have?

Jon Cryer is a well-known television personality and made a hefty pay of more than $ 650,000 per television episode Assets of over 60 million euros pile up.

The 51-year-old actor has other talents and has already appeared as a producer, for example.

The TV star was even considered one of the highest paid TV actors in the world. In the sitcom, only Ashton Kutcher, who replaced Charlie Sheen on the popular TV series, earned more. He earned a good 655,000 euros per episode, almost 100,000 euros more per episode than his colleague Jon Cryer, who, by the way, is also married to a well-known woman from the showbiz.

The couple adopted a daughter together, while the actor already has a biological son from his first marriage.

How Jon Cryer became one of the Highest Paid TV Actors

Jon Cryer was born in New York City, the metropolis on the US east coast. As the son of a Broadway actor, he has the best prerequisites to be successful in showbiz himself. At the age of just 12, the now 51-year-old knew that he wanted to be an actor himself. He actually fulfilled this dream with great success, as he could hardly have landed a better gig than with “Two and a Half Men”. Even during his school days, little Jon, whose real name is Jonathan, used his school holidays to attend acting courses and acting camps. In 1983 he graduated from an elite school in the Bronx, before the American star moved to England to study acting. There Jon Cryer studied at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in the British capital London.

As early as 1984, Cryer was seen in his first major role alongside Demi Moore. “A strong number” shouldn’t remain his only success as an actor. Because even with “Pretty in Pink,” a film from 1986, the American was gradually able to increase his level of awareness more and more. It was not until the 90s, however, that Jonathan could be seen in one or the other sitcom, none of which was ever as successful as “Two and a Half Men.” Not just “The Famous Teddy Z,” but “Getting Personal” and “The Trouble with Normal” were also discontinued early on, as the resounding success of these sitcoms unfortunately failed to materialize. Jon Cryer was not discouraged by this and continued to pursue his career ambitions with ardor. The actor almost got a role in “Friends”, although his application failed because the application video never reached the sitcom’s casting team in time. Otherwise Jon Cryer might have gotten the part instead of Matthew Perry.

With “Two and a Half Men” to a million fortune

So it should be until 2003 until Jon finally found his star role and finally made it big with “Two and a Half Men”, which, by the way, was produced by none other than Chuck Lorre. After 262 episodes in the role of Alan Harper and father of Jake (Angus T. Jones) and a very long running time from 2003, this series was finally over in February 2015. His Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame However, the actor has clearly earned himself. He was twice able to win an Emmy for his work as the best supporting or leading actor in a comedy series, namely in 2009 and 2012. But also in 2006, 2007, 2008, 2010 and 2011 Jon was at least nominated for the prestigious television award. The actor was also able to win a prize at the Austin Film Festival in 1998 and has thus proven himself as a top-class Hollywood star.
