Aaron Taylor-Johnson's net worth: The ‘28 Years Later' actor's wealth & income

Aaron Taylor-Johnson takes to the screen in 28 Years Later, the third installment of the zombie franchise that started with 28 Days Later, released in 2002. In 28 Years Later, he plays a survivor of a virus that turns humans into zombies, almost three decades after the first infection in the U.K. Taylor-Johnson is no stranger to starring in action films, having played superheroes in Marvel movies.

His primary earnings have come from his acting career, though he does endorse products on the income largely comes from his career as an actor. His salary for 28 Years Later isn't known, but with a cast that features Ralph Fiennes and Jodie Comer and a $75 million budget, Taylor-Johnson's pay is likely to be modest. In Kraven the Hunter in 2024, while the box-office take was disappointing, Taylor-Johnson reportedly earned $2 million for his role, according to Showbiz Galore. Taylor-Johnson's brand is his name and face, and he has used both to earn additional income as a spokesperson. He serves as brand ambassador for OMEGA watches, Jameson Irish Whiskey, and Acqua di Gio, a men's fragrance brand by Giorgio Armani.

In 2014, Taylor-Johnson starred in two films that further widened his reach with audiences. In Marvel's Captain America: The Winter Soldier, he played Quicksilver, and reprised that role a year later in Avengers: Age of Ultron. In Godzilla, he portrayed a naval officer helping the U.S. military assist Godzilla in fending off other creatures to save San Francisco. The revival of the Godzilla franchise led to main acting roles, including The Wall in 2017, where Taylor-Johnson played a U.S. Army soldier targeted by a sniper during the Iraq War. In 2022, Taylor-Johnson joined an ensemble cast including Brad Pitt and Michael Shannon in Bullet Train, a film about hitmen at work on a speeding train in Japan. In 2024, he signed up again with Marvel to take on the role of Kraven the Hunter, a sort of anti-hero with powers who serves as a killer for hire. Media outlets have noted Taylor-Johnson as a potential successor to Daniel Craig in the James Bond series. Related: Which "Mission: Impossible" film made the most money?
