As the terrifying Keldor, better known as Skeletor, Jared Leto leads the armies of darkness in Masters of the Universe while also topping the cast's wealth ranking with an estimated net worth of $90 million. Beyond Hollywood, the actor has quietly built a reputation as one of the industry's smartest celebrity investors, backing major tech companies such as Uber, Airbnb, Reddit, and Robinhood long before they became global giants.
Long before stepping into Eternia, Leto won an Academy Award for his performance in Dallas Buyers Club, portrayed the Joker in S***** Squad, and built a second career as the frontman of the multi-platinum rock band Thirty Seconds to Mars. His earning power remains equally impressive, with reports linking him to a $15 million payday for Tron: Ares and roughly $7 million for his brief appearance as the Joker, proving that his fortune extends far beyond the walls of Castle Grayskull.
Yet despite Skeletor's commanding lead, another Hollywood powerhouse and franchise veteran is not too far behind on the Masters of the Universe cast net worth list.
Idris Elba (Man-At-Arms)
In Masters of the Universe, Idris Elba takes on the role of Duncan, better known as Man-At-Arms, Eternia's legendary weapons master, military strategist, and one of Prince Adam's most trusted mentors. The British star enters the reboot with an estimated net worth of $50 million, accumulated through decades of blockbuster films, television success, and several business ventures. Beyond acting, Elba has built a thriving international career as a professional DJ and has invested heavily in projects such as Sierra Leone's ambitious Sherbro Island eco-city development.
Long before arriving in Eternia, Elba became a household name through acclaimed performances in The Wire and Luther, the latter earning him a Golden Globe Award. He later joined the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Heimdall and expanded his blockbuster resume with franchises such as Fast & Furious, Suicide Squad, and Sonic the Hedgehog. Reports suggest he commanded an $8 million paycheck for Hobbs & Shaw, while major studio projects have consistently placed him among Hollywood's highest-paid leading men.
But while Elba's resume spans superheroes, detectives, and action icons, one familiar television star quietly built her own multi-million-dollar empire before stepping into Eternia's dark side.
Alison Brie (Evil-Lyn)
As the cunning Evil-Lyn, one of Skeletor's most dangerous allies, Alison Brie brings a touch of dark magic to Eternia's growing war. The actress has amassed an estimated net worth of $10 million through years of television success, voice acting, producing, and screenwriting. Unlike many blockbuster stars, Brie's fortune stems from consistent work across critically acclaimed projects rather than a single franchise, making her one of Hollywood's most reliable performers.
Before joining Masters of the Universe, Brie earned widespread acclaim for her roles in Community, Mad Men, and Netflix's wrestling comedy GLOW, which secured her multiple Golden Globe nominations. She has also expanded her career behind the camera through producing and independent filmmaking, further strengthening her Hollywood profile. Industry estimates suggest veteran streaming and network stars of her calibre can command six-figure-per-episode salaries, with lead performers often earning between $100,000 and $150,000 per episode on major productions.
While Evil-Lyn commands dark forces across Eternia, the next star on the list built her fortune through one of television's biggest teen drama phenomena.
Camila Mendes (Teela)
As Teela, the fearless Captain of Eternia's Royal Guard and one of Prince Adam's closest allies, Camila Mendes steps into one of the franchise's most beloved roles. The actress has built an estimated $5 million fortune through a combination of television success, streaming films, producer credits, and lucrative endorsement partnerships. Beyond acting, Mendes has expanded her portfolio through major beauty campaigns with brands such as John Frieda and Urban Decay while steadily establishing herself as a producer.
Mendes first rose to global fame as Veronica Lodge on The CW's Riverdale, appearing across all 137 episodes of the hit teen drama and earning a Teen Choice Award along the way. She later successfully transitioned to films with projects such as Do Revenge, Upgraded, and The Perfect Date, further growing her profile among younger audiences. By the later seasons of Riverdale, reports suggested Mendes earned around $40,000 per episode, generating nearly $900,000 annually from the series alone, while her film projects reportedly command salaries ranging between $200,000 and $400,000.
However, while Teela stands among Eternia's fiercest warriors, the man destined to wield the Power Sword and become He-Man is only just beginning his rise to Hollywood superstardom.
Nicholas Galitzine (He-Man / Prince Adam)
As Prince Adam, the long-lost Eternian royal who discovers the Power Sword and transforms into the mighty He-Man, Nicholas Galitzine carries the weight of the entire franchise on his shoulders. While he currently possesses the lowest estimated net worth among the principal cast at between $3 million and $5 million, the actor is widely regarded as one of Hollywood's fastest-rising leading men. Beyond acting, Galitzine has strengthened his growing fortune through high-profile fashion partnerships, serving as a global ambassador for luxury brands including Fendi and Emporio Armani.

Galitzine's rapid ascent began with projects such as Purple Hearts before exploding into global popularity through streaming hits like Red, White & Royal Blue and The Idea of You opposite Anne Hathaway. His growing appeal among younger audiences has transformed him into one of the industry's most sought-after emerging stars, with reports suggesting he earned around $400,000 for The Idea of You alone. With Masters of the Universe positioning him as the face of a major fantasy franchise, many industry watchers expect both his profile and net worth to rise significantly in the coming years.
And as Masters of the Universe marches toward its big-screen debut, one thing is already clear, Eternia isn't just home to powerful heroes and villains, but also a cast packed with Hollywood heavyweights worth millions.
