Have you ever wondered how rich Gerard Depardieu is, as of late 2016? According to authoritative sources, it has been estimated that Depardieu`s net worth is as high as $200 million, an amount earned through his successful career in the entertainment industry. He owns a vineyard too, which has also increased his net worth.

Gerard is the son of Anne Jeanne Josephe and her husband Rene Maxime Lionel Depardieu, and along with four other children he grew up in his hometown. He left school when he was 13 years old, and soon ran into problems with the law, which resulted in probation. Three years after he left school, Gerard moved to Paris, where he joined the comedy theatre Cage de la Gare. He also studied dancing and was taught by Jean Lauren Cochet. His career on the screen began in the 1960s, but before 1974 he didn`t have any major role, until portraying Jean-Claude in “Les Valseuses”, a comedy directed by Bertrand Blier. In the 1970s, Gerard also made successful appearances in “La Femme du Gange” (1974), “The Wonderful Crook” (1975), “The Last Woman” (1976), “1900” (1976) alongside Robert De Niro, “Get Out Your Handkerchiefs” (1978), and “The Dogs” (1979), all of which increased his net worth by a large margin. Since then, his career has only gone upwards, and he has appeared in both English language and French language films, and so far has made over 200 appearances, which have added a substantial amount to his net worth.

In the 1980s, Depardieu had notable roles in such productions as “The Last Metro” (1980), “Choice of Arms” (1981), “Danton” (1983), “Jean de Florette” (1986), “Under the Sun of Satan” (1987), and “Camile Claude” (1988), among others, which only increased further his net worth.

In 1993 he starred in “Germinal”, and the next year he had the leading role in “A Pure Formality”. His next big role was in “Hamlet” (1996), directed by Kenneth Branagh, and in 1998 he appeared next to Leonardo DiCaprio and Jeremy Irons in “The Man in the Iron Mask”. The following year he was selected for the role of Obelix in the first installment of the franchise – “Asterix and Obelix vs. Caesar” (1999) – and has repeated this role in “Asterix and Obelix Meet Cleopatra” (2002), and “Astérix and Obélix: God Save Britannia” (2012), which have certainly added to his net worth.

In the early 2000s, Gerard appeared in “Vatel” (2000), with Uma Thurman, “The Envy of Gods” (2000), “The Closet” (2001), “I Am Dina” (2002), “A Loving Father” (2002), “Changing Times” (2004), alongside Catherine Deneuve, among other productions, which have only increased his net worth.

Since 2005 he has been in a relationship with Clementine Igou.
