Harry Potter's three lead stars Daniel Radcliffe, 27, Emma Watson, 27 and Rupert Grint, 28, emerged as the top three richest film actors under 30 in the annual Sunday Times Richest List. As a group, the trio has a combined tally of $188 million.
Radcliffe, the boy wizard himself, came in as the number one earner among his peers with a net worth of $101 million. Watson ranked fourth on the list with her net worth at $50 million. Watson's success after "Harry Potter" saw a boost recently when she starred in Disney's "Beauty and the Beast." The third wizard, Grint, a.k.a.
Ron Weasley, landed fifth on the list with a net worth of $36 million. He's currently starring in the Hulu TV series "Snatch."
Sunday Times' richest
In between Radcliffe, Watson and Grint's ranking is 30-year-old Robert Pattinson in second place. Though the "Twilight" star hasn't had a box-office repeat of his early vampire movies, Pattinson still managed to amass an $86 million fortune.
Ranking third on the list is One Direction's Harry Styles with $51 million. He was part of director Christopher Nolan's "Dunkirk" war movie which will run in U.S. theaters this July. The rest of the members of his boyband made it on the list as well, but only Styles broke into the top seven ranking.
Model-turned-actress Cara Delevine ranked seventh with $19 million.
Aaron Taylor-Johnson of the film "Kick-Ass" and "Avengers" also made it on the rich list for the first time at number six with his $23 million net worth.
'Harry Potter' Broadway-bound
Meanwhile, the stage spinoff "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child" is finally bound for Broadway in New York. The musical, which is about Harry, Hermione and Ron's life as adults after leaving Hogwarts, first ran in London's West End where it was recognized for numerous Olivier Awards, the British equivalent of the Tony Awards.
"Harry Potter" creator J.K. Rowling wrote the stage play with Jack Thorne and John Tiffany. The U.S. run is expected to open in April 2018 and production promises a new look for its American debut. Ticket information and the schedule of performances will be announced at a later date.
