Brad Pitt dropped out of the top 100 richest artists after breaking up with Angelina Jolie

According to Celebrity Net Worth, Brad Pitt’s current total assets are approximately $240 million, higher than his two famous ex-wives, Angelina Jolie and Jennifer Aniston.

The marriage of superstar couple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie almost ended when their divorce petition was being considered. According to Daily Mail , the court’s decision will be available in the next few months.
The divorce procedure is somewhat complicated not only because the two stars claim custody of their 6 children, but also because of their large assets, including real estate purchased together during their marriage.
According to  Celebrity Net Worth , the World War Z actor’s total assets are up to 240 million USD, while Angelina Jolie has only accumulated 160 million USD. Ex-wife Jennifer Aniston is slightly better than her former “love rival”, at $220 million, but still lower than Brad Pitt.

In 2016, Brad Pitt was ranked 94th among the highest-paid stars in the world (including sports) by Forbes magazine,  but recently he was no longer on this list. The image of the broken marriage not only caused both of them to lose many advertising contracts, but spending time resolving the crisis is the reason why Brad Pitt has almost no outstanding artistic activities. 
Also according to a magazine specializing in investigating artist finances, Brad Pitt has had a huge jump in salary. In 1991, he played  Thelma and Louise  and only received 6,000 USD, but 10 years later, with his role in Ocean’s Eleven,  the actor reached the mark of 20 million USD/film. The movie Mr. andMrs. Smith helped connect Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie in 2005, which also allowed him to receive this huge salary.

His company Plan B has produced Inglourious Basterds, Moneyball,  The Tree of Life, 12 Years a Slave, Fury, Allied and War Machine, Ad Astra, Moonglight…,  including World War Z with worldwide box office revenue. 540  million USD is the most profitable project of the 54-year-old actor.

Besides acting, Brad Pitt is also very diligent in doing charity work. He supports the One campaign and the Make It Right Foundation. Together with Angelina Jolie, the two founded the Jolie-Pitt Foundation for human issues.
