$5 million

As of December 2024, it’s estimated that Mena Suvari has a net worth of about $5 million. She has made a name (and a living) across multiple fields, thanks to her diverse talents in acting, modeling, producing, and even fashion design. Here’s a closer look at how she’s built her wealth and the unique paths she’s taken.

Acting Career

Mena has hit it big with her success in American Pie and her American Beauty roles in the year 1999. American Beauty not only was a cult film but gave her career a big push. She was nominated for a BAFTA for that role. In 2012, for American Reunion, she earned around $750,000, proving that with the major franchises she does, she is definitely going to earn the dollars. In addition to the projects mentioned above, Mena has appeared in other popular projects such as Slums of Beverly Hills, Loser, HBO’s Six Feet Under, and American Horror Story, which have contributed significantly to her income over the years.

Modeling & Endorsements

Before Hollywood’s success, Mena started as a model and never fully left it. She has worked with such great brands as Lancôme and Coach, shooting campaigns that added nicely to her income. Modeling for big-name brands can bring in a lot of money, so these partnerships helped build her wealth outside of acting.

Production & Writing

She is not just in front of the camera, but Mena also ventured into production by being an associate producer on Don’t Blink (2014) and an executive producer on The Murder of Nicole Brown Simpson (2019). While her production earnings aren’t known to the public, Mena’s rising influence in Hollywood should be obvious. In 2021, she came out with a memoir called The Great Peace, a book that shares her personal journey and adds another kind of income stream through sales and royalties.

Fashion Ventures

Mena also explored fashion design. She partnered with ECHO, for instance, for a scarf line at Bloomingdale’s. Naturally, she does not have any known income from this side hustle, but her enterprises expand along with her personal sense of style and as part of her brand.
