Bryan Cranston Net Worth to Increase Despite End of 'Breaking Bad'?
Bryan Cranston's net worth is currently very high at $30 million, according to reports. But a new project expects the "Breaking Bad" star to bring in even more money, increasing his net worth even after his biggest television role came to an end.
According to celebritynetworth.com Cranston's current net worth is $30 million, and it is fair to say "Breaking Bad" contributed greatly to his wealth, as he earned $225,000 per episode.
To increase his net worth after "Breaking Bad," Cranston is turning away from television and to the stage. He is currently starring in a stage play as President Lyndon Johnson. And it has been announced that the play will be moving to Broadway, according to the Los Angeles Times.
The play is called "All the Way" and is penned by Robert Schenkkan, who is a Pulizer Prize winner.
The opening date for "All the Way" has not yet been announced.
Cranston has been praised by critics for his work in the stage play.
"Cranston gives a dazzling, far-ranging and moving" performance. The play is gripping, but still "has an abbreviated feel since Schenkkan takes on so many story strands," wrote Frank Rizzo, a critic who writes for Variety.
Bryan Cranston "cuts a vigorous, imposing figure as L.B.J.," and he "glitters with an almost salacious ruthlessness," wrote New York Times critic Charles Isherwood.
How much the Boradway play will increase Cranston's net worth is yet to be seen. It depends on the popularity of the play and how well it does once on Broadway. But if the critics are to be trusted, it seems the play has potential to do very well.
