School / College / University
He went to Esher Sixth Form College, where he took A Levels in Theatre Studies, English Language, and Economics. That mix says a lot: he had a creative spark, a love for language, and a sharp, practical edge.
But here’s where it gets cool. While most students were stressing about exams, Finn was landing Peaky Blinders. Yep—he got cast as Michael Gray while still studying at Esher.
Religion
Christianity
Race / Ethnicity
Mixed. Dutch from his father’s side and Mexican from his mother’s side.
Hobbies
He loves playing guitar and making music, often drawing inspiration from blues greats like B.B. King and Muddy Waters, as well as modern sounds from artists like Jacob Collier and White Denim. You’ll often find him at gigs, cheering on friends and soaking up live performances.
He’s also into water sports and engineering—something he picked up from his dad, who worked on boats. That childhood connection to the water still runs deep. Back in school, Finn was serious about rugby, but acting eventually took the front seat. He stepped away from the sport to avoid injuries that could derail his career. These days, when he’s not acting, he’s producing theater through his own company, Green Tea Productions, helping other actors get their start. And at the end of the day? A good movie, a pub hangout, and time with friends keep him grounded.

Net worth 2025
$2 million
As of December 2025, it’s estimated that Finn Cole has a net worth of about $2 million. He’s quietly built a solid career (and a pretty healthy bank account) by doing the work, staying selective, and playing it smart. Let’s break down where his money comes from, how much he’s likely earning, and why he’s one to watch.
1. Acting: His Bread and Butter
Acting is still Finn’s main gig—and it’s treated him well.
Peaky Blinders (Michael Gray)
His big break came when he landed the role of Michael Gray in Peaky Blinders. He wasn’t just a side character either—his role became a cornerstone of the show’s later seasons.
While exact salaries are hush-hush, actors in major BBC dramas often pull in anywhere from £20,000 to £40,000 per episode. Multiply that by multiple seasons, and you’re looking at around $600,000 to $1 million from Peaky Blinders alone.
Animal Kingdom (Joshua “J” Cody)
Then there’s Animal Kingdom, the TNT hit where Finn played the lead role for six seasons. U.S. cable series pay better, especially when you’re front and center. Industry averages suggest $25,000 to $60,000 per episode, which could put his total payday somewhere between $1.5 to $3 million across all 75 episodes.
Film Work
He’s also popped up in movies like F9: The Fast Saga (as a young Jakob Toretto), Dreamland with Margot Robbie, and indie films like Slaughterhouse Rulez and Here Are the Young Men. Those roles probably brought in anywhere from $50k to $150k each, depending on the production.
👉 Estimated total from acting so far? Around $2.5–4 million, give or take.
2. Social Media & Sponsorships: A Quiet Goldmine
Finn isn’t a loud influencer type, but that’s what makes his Instagram page feel authentic. With nearly 900,000 followers, he’s built a loyal audience without selling out.
He’s been spotted working with style-heavy brands like Burberry and Hugo Boss, and a few cool indie labels. Social media analytics suggest someone with his reach could be earning:
-
$5,000–10,000 per sponsored post
-
$25,000–35,000 per month if he takes on 2–3 campaigns
That adds up fast—$300k to $400k per year without stepping on a red carpet. Not bad for posting photos in great lighting and good shoes.
3. Producing & Creative Projects
This is where things get interesting. Finn co-founded a theater production company called Green Tea Productions, which focuses on putting new plays on stage and supporting up-and-coming actors.
Right now, this probably isn’t a cash cow—but it’s a long-term play. Think of it like creative investing:
-
He gets behind the scenes.
-
Builds a personal brand beyond acting.
-
And if one of those plays hits? The royalties, licensing, and recognition follow.
At this stage, we’d estimate maybe $50k–$100k/year, but it’s more about building something meaningful than padding a paycheck.
4. Other Income: Appearances, Royalties, and Side Gigs
Finn also makes money from smaller gigs that add up over time:
-
Public appearances at film festivals and panels: $5k–$10k each.
-
Residuals from Peaky Blinders and Animal Kingdom reruns and streaming deals (Netflix, Prime Video).
-
Possible voiceover or narration work—though unconfirmed—can bring in $10k–$20k a pop.
Even if he’s not chasing every opportunity, these extras probably put another $50k–$100k in his pocket annually.
