Jaden Smith , offspring of movie stars Will and Jada Pinkett Smith, made big money for starring in the 2010 remake of the 1984 classic, The Karate Kid. According to TMZ, Jaden Smith (who was 10 years old at the time), was paid a sum of $900,000 and another of $100,000 in 2009. Since then, the film has made over $150 million which made Jaden Smith eligible for a $2 million dollar bonus that was negotiated at the time he signed the contract and it is anticipated that he will make even more from the film in the future.
Meanwhile, It’s no telling how much his father Will Smith, made from the film which was produced by his company, Overbrook Entertainment but his worth is estimated to be around$400 million. While supporting their kids careers, Will and Jada continue to rack in big bucks through their production company Overbrook which has produced films like “Hitch”, “I Am Legend”, “Ali” and “The Pursuit Of Happyness”, investment deals that include the Broadway play “Fela” and Carol’s Daughter products to name a few, and Will Smith is currently on set filming the 3rd Installment to his blockbuster hit film “Men In Black”. Will Smith also continues to make back end money off of his high grossing films, including Independence Day which racked in over $300 million at the Box Office.
Although, TMZ claims that Jaden Smith is the poorest in the family, I believe that title may go to Willow. She has, however, made a good amount of change off of her hit single “Whip My Hair”, as well as her recent European tour with Justin Bieber.
hmm, I’m inspired.
