Sean Connery has an estimated net worth of $300 million

Sean Connery is a Scottish actor with an estimated net worth of $300 million. He has starred in films like Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, The Untouchables and is perhaps the most recognized actor to play James Bond. He is 6’2″ and weighs 210 pounds. Thomas Sean Connery was born on August 25, 1930 in Edinburgh, Scotland. Connery’s mother was a cleaning woman and his father a factory worker and lorry driver. Connery grew quickly as he claims to have reached his full height by the age of 12. He would work as a milkman before joining the Royal Navy, before being discharged because of an ulcer. He would also dabble in bodybuilding and soccer before settling on a career in acting.

Connery was introduced to theater after helping out backstage at the King’s Theatre in 1951 and would eventually win a role as chorus boy in a production of South Pacific in 1953. His good looks, imposing stature and confidence made waves. He would get his big break when he was cast as a spy in the film version of Ian Fleming’s Dr. No in 1962. Connery would go on to play Bond in the first five films in the franchise throughout the 1960s. It would become the most successful movie franchise in history earning over $14 billion to date. Connery would reprise the role two more times in 1971 and 1983.

Despite the international fame and fortune that came along with his Bond portrayal, Connery somehow managed not to be typecast and would go on to have one of the most successful and longest careers in film history. Some of his other major projects include, Highlander (1986), The Name of the Rose (1986), The Untouchables (1987) – for which he won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor — Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989), The Hunt for Red October (1990), Rising Sun (1993), Entrapment (1999), Finding Forrester (1990) and The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (2003). Connery was married to actress Diane Cilento from 1962 to 1973 and then married Micheline Roquebrune in 1975. He has one son.
