The cast of 'True Detective,' ranked by net worth

While she doesn’t appear on CelebrityNetWorth, Carmen Ejogo has between $1 million and $5 million according to other estimates. In addition to the third season of “True Detective,” she has appeared in a range of projects, from “Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them” to “Selma.”

Kelly Reilly appeared in the first season of “True Detective,” but she’s made a lot of money from other big projects, most recently the series “Yellowstone” and “Flight.”

Mahershala Ali had a huge few years around his starring role on “True Detectives,” including awards from every major body for his roles in “Moonlight” and “Green Book.”

Taylor Kitsch starred in the first season of “True Detective,” but much of his money comes from huge blockbusters like “John Carter,” “X-Men Origins: Wolverine,” and “Battleship.”

Michelle Monaghan’s movie credits include huge titles like “Mission: Impossible III,” “Kiss Kiss Bang Bang,” and “Gone Baby Gone,” all adding up to about $16 million.

From “Mean Girls” to “The Notebook” and even hard-nosed detective Ani Bezzerides in “True Detective,” Rachel McAdams can do it all.

When you’re one of the stars of “Cheers,” you have a lot of money, especially when you go on to star in huge franchises like “Zombieland” and lead the first season of “True Detective.”

With a string of high-profile movies in the mid-2000s, like “Old School,” "DodgeBall: A True Underdog Story," and "Wedding Crashers,” Vince Vaughn has done pretty well for himself as a member of the so-called Frat Pack.

Season two of “True Detective” was just one late entry in Colin Farrell’s hugely successful career, which also included money-makers like “S.W.A.T.”, “Daredevil” and “Miami Vice.”

Honestly, “True Detective” wouldn’t have achieved nearly as much success without Matthew McConaughey’s amazing performance. The Oscar-winning actor has been well paid for all his work, earning a whopping $140 million.
