Net worth 2025

As of February 2025, it’s estimated that Emily VanCamp has a net worth of about $8 million, based on information from different reliable sources. She has built an impressive career in television and film, turning her childhood passion for ballet into a Hollywood success story. Thanks to her years in the entertainment industry. But how exactly does she make her money? Let’s break it down.

1. Television – Her Biggest Paycheck Source

Emily’s TV career is what put her on the map and remains her biggest source of earnings.

• “Everwood” (2002–2006) – Her breakout role as Amy Abbott introduced her to millions of fans. While her salary from the show isn’t widely reported, most young stars in that era earned around $20,000–$30,000 per episode for a major network show.
• “Brothers & Sisters” (2007–2010) – Playing Rebecca Harper gave her steady TV work and more industry credibility. Again, her salary isn’t publicly available, but actors in her role at the time likely earned around $40,000–$50,000 per episode.
• “Revenge” (2011–2015) – This was the game-changer. Playing Emily Thorne/Amanda Clarke turned her into a household name. By the height of the show’s popularity, she was reportedly making around $55,000 per episode. Given that Revenge had 22 episodes per season, she could have been making over $1 million per season by the end of the series.
• “The Resident” (2018–2021) – As Nic Nevin in this medical drama, Emily continued to earn big. Lead actors in network dramas often make anywhere from $75,000–$125,000 per episode, which means she likely made well over $1 million per season.

2. Marvel Movies – Big Screen, Big Paycheck

Emily made the leap to the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Sharon Carter/Agent 13 in Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014) and Captain America: Civil War (2016).

While her exact salary isn’t public, smaller supporting roles in Marvel films tend to earn between $300,000–$1 million per movie. Given the success of these films, it’s safe to assume her pay was closer to the higher end, especially with residuals from streaming and merchandise.

She later reprised the role in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier on Disney+, which likely added another six-figure paycheck to her earnings.

3. Film Roles – A Mix of Indie and Mainstream

Emily has starred in several films, including:

• Black Irish (2007)
• Carriers (2009)
• Norman (2010)
• The Girl in the Book (2015)
• Boundaries (2016)

These films are mostly indie projects, meaning she likely earned $100,000–$500,000 per movie, depending on the budget. While they didn’t rake in Marvel-level paychecks, they helped her diversify her career.

4. Endorsements & Other Ventures

While Emily isn’t known for heavy brand endorsements, being a well-recognized actress means she still benefits from promotional deals and residual earnings.

She has also invested in real estate, owning a $1.5 million home in the Hollywood Hills, which could appreciate in value over time.

5. Her Financial Approach – Not Flashy, Just Smart

Unlike many Hollywood stars, Emily keeps a low-profile lifestyle. She prefers fishing over clubbing, enjoys cooking at home, and spends time with her husband Josh Bowman, and their kids. This means she likely saves and invests a lot of her earnings instead of splurging on luxury cars and designer items
