The American actress Anne Hathaway has a net worth of $80 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth.


With her films having made approximately $6.8 billion in global box office receipts, Anne Hathaway is among the highest-paid actresses in the entertainment industry. Hathaway made her television debut in the 1999–2000 season of "Get Real" during her teenage years, marking the beginning of her career. Her breakthrough role was that of shy girl Mia Thermopolis in the 2001 Disney movie "The Princess Diaries.”


Anne Hathaway was born on November 12, 1982, in Brooklyn, New York City. Anne, who was raised by a mother who used to be an actress, and a father who practiced law, relocated to New Jersey with her two siblings when she was a little child. Her parents were initially hesitant to allow her to pursue an entertainment career, despite her early desire to follow in her mother's footsteps.

She attained maturity as an actress after starring in "The Devil Wears Prada." Together with Meryl Streep, Hathaway's performance contributed to the movie's over $326 million worldwide box office.
