Bryan Cranston Net Worth is $30 Million (as of 2020)
So in this article we are going to talk about Bryan Cranston net worth. Although this actor has worked on television for more than 30 years, I can hardly think of a time when he received as much media attention as he does today. For the most part, this is because Bryan has just stopped filming for what we call one of the best television series in history, Breaking Bad. The success of this show is responsible for a considerable part of Bryan Cranston net worth, which currently amounts to $30 million. We will talk about this show and the money it has brought into Bryan’s account a bit later, but let’s start from the beginning.

Bryan started his professional career in the 1980s, appearing in minor roles in various movies (suck as The Return of the Six-Million-Dollar Man and the Bionic Woman, Ramayana: The Legend of Prince Rama and I Know My First Name Is Steven) as well as TV series, including One Life to Live (where he played Dean Stella), North and South: Book II (Colonel Austin), Murder, She Wrote (Brian East / Jerry Wilber/ Parker Foreman) and Raising Miranda (as Uncle Russell). His career did not really take off until the year 2000, when he landed a leading role in well-known television series Malcolm in the Middle. The role of Hal Wilkerson was the first one to earn Bryan a significant critical acclaim (he was nominated for a several awards, including Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series and Satellite Award for Best Actor).
However, the success Cranston experienced while appearing in Malcolm in the Middle was nothing compared with an obsession with this actor, which started along with his career on Breaking Bad. The number of awards and nominations Cranston received for the portrayal of Walter White and producing the series (he joined the team of producers in 2011) is beyond comprehension and there is no way I could name all of them. But here are a few I consider the most important: Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series (2008, 2009, 2010), Critics’ Choice Television Award for Best Actor in a Drama Series (2012, 2013), Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Drama Series (2013, 2014).
Obviously, the success of Breaking Bad, as well as the brilliance of his performance in this show, has a lot to do with the current Bryan Cranston net worth. But how much exactly did he earn? Well according to the annual salary report of television actors, hosts, and personalities released by TV Guide, Cranston’s salary per episode amounted to $250 thousand! Although the series have ended, there is no reason to think that Bryan Cranston net worth would stop growing in the foreseeable future.
