The Cast of 'The Sopranos' Ranked by Net Worth

Highlights

  • Drea de Matteo, who portrayed Adriana La Cerva on The Sopranos , saw a significant dip in net worth, from $15 million to $4 million, mostly due to financial struggles.
  • Edie Falco has one of the highest net worths post-Sopranos at $50 million, credited to her role in Nurse Jackie and subsequent projects.
  • Steven Van Zandt boasts the highest net worth among The Sopranos cast, mainly from his music career and acting work.

More than a decade and a half since The Sopranos came to an end, the classic HBO series still maintains a legacy as one of the greatest shows to ever air on television. Even in 2023, more than two decades since its premiere, the characters still feel as rich in personality and the stories are as engrossing as ever.

Fans who fondly remember the show continue to be curious about what the cast has been up to since the finale had last cut to black, but the bigger curiosity comes when wondering how the cast turned out financially after the show went off the air.

By comparison especially, which actors turned out to have a stronger net worth than others on the show?

Here's how much the cast of The Sopranos is worth today.

Updated March 2024: In the years since 'The Sopranos' wrapped, many of the cast members' net worths have taken significant dips. However, over the last couple of years, the net worths have remained fairly consistent, except for Drea de Matteo. This is because de Matteo was once worth $15 million. These days, despite a lengthy resume, de Matteo is worth $4 million. Something that came from starting an OnlyFans page, which the actor claims helped with her "financial hardship."

10 Drea de Matteo

Net Worth: $4 Million

There is far more to Drea de Matteo than her Emmy-winning role as Christopher Moltisanti's girlfriend.

Drea has had an impressive acting career. Some of her more successful roles, according to IMDb include:

Mayans MC (TV Series)

2023

Wendy Case (supporting)

Paradise City (TV Series)

2021

Maya (supporting)

A Million Little Things (TV Series)

2019

Barbara Nelson (supporting)

Shades of Blue (TV Series)

2016-2018

Tess Nazario (lead)

Sons of Anarchy (TV Series)

2008-2014

Wendy Case (supporting)

Desperate Housewives (TV Series)

2009-2010

Angie Bolen (supporting)

Joey (TV Series)

2004-2006

Gina Tribbiani (lead)

Drea even once owned her own clothing store, Filth Mart. However, despite Drea's lengthy resume, she has financially struggled over the years. As such, she turned to OnlyFans and has made quite a bit of money from the platform.

Drea is worth $4 million today.

9 Tony Sirico

Net Worth: $8 Million

Although his net worth is tied with Iler's, Tony Sirico is likely just relieved to be able to make a decent living through a respectable job like acting.

Prior to becoming an actor, he was a real-life gangster in his own right, having been arrested on nearly 30 different occasions, often for robbery. Whether you'd call that method acting or manifestation, today, Sirico is worth $8 million.

8 Robert Iler

Net Worth: $10 Million

While his character may not have been near as highly favored or beloved as his onscreen father, Robert Iler still made the character of AJ Soprano into a fully realized, believable (albeit, easily hated) character.

His net worth is second-lowest among the main cast, mostly because he pretty much retired after the show went off the air. Even so, a $10 million net worth is nothing to sniff at!

7 Dominic Chianese

Net Worth: $10 Million

At 93 years old, Dominic Chianese continues to be as highly sought after as an actor as he was when he first played Uncle Junior in The Sopranos, or even prior to that when he played Johnny Ola in The Godfather Part II.

As if his track record as an actor (or his estimated $10 million net worth) wasn't impressive all its own, Dominic Chianese has another, very impressive accolade to his name. In 2010, he received the Ellis Island Medal of Honor for his work in the humanitarian space.

6 Jamie-Lynn Sigler

Net Worth: $12 Million

Similar to her on-screen brother, Jamie-Lynn Sigler largely disappeared from the acting scene after The Sopranos wrapped up. "I just kind of needed a break and be off the hook of waiting for a phone to ring," she told CBS. "I just needed to see if it really mattered to me anymore."

However, speaking of her onscreen brother, Sigler and Iler had a podcast together called Pajama Pants. In 2021, Sigler joined Big Sky, which ended in 2023.

Thanks to all her projects over the years, Sigler is said to be worth $12 million today.

5 Lorraine Bracco

Net Worth: $14 Million

As Tony's moralistic therapist Jennifer Melfi, Lorraine Bracco brought a refreshing and endearing heart to the normally harsh and gritty realities which The Sopranos presented.

In real life, the former Emmy and Golden Globe nominee has garnered prestigious respect among Hollywood circles and among her fans alike.

Since her tenure on The Sopranos, Bracco's gone on to be involved in a number of projects. Some of the most successful, according to IMDb include:

Jerk (TV Series)

2019-2023

Tim's Mom (supporting)

Blue Bloods (TV Series)

2017-2018

Mayor Margaret Dutton (supporting)

Rizzoli & Isles (TV Series)

2010-2016

Angela Rizzoli (lead)

I Married a Mobster (TV Series)

2011

Narrator (voice)

Bracco's worth an estimated $14 million.

4 Michael Imperioli

Net Worth: $20 Million

Money never came easy for Michael Imperioli when he first stepped into the acting game. As he explained to Reuters, he, "Didn’t start making a real living until eight or nine years in." He was even fired from his first acting job.

Now, thanks to breakout performances in Goodfellas and, of course, The Sopranos, money issues are a thing of the past.

Several years down the line, Imperoli is still getting in on some major gigs. Some of the most successful, according to IMDb include:

This Fool (TV Series)

2022-2023

Minister Payne (supporting)

The White Lotus (TV Series)

2022

Dominic Di Grasso (supporting)

Lincoln Rhyme: Hunt for the Bone Collector (TV Series)

2020

Detective Michael Sellitto (lead)

Alex, Inc. (TV Series)

2018

Eddie (lead)

Hawaii Five-0 (TV Series)

2015-2018

Odell Martin (supporting)

Mad Dogs (TV Series)

2015-2016

Lex (lead)

Californication (TV Series)

2014

Rick Rath (supporting)

Detroit 1-8-7 (TV Series)

2010-2011

Detective Louis Fitch (lead)

Life on Mars (TV Series)

2008-2009

Detective Ray Carling (lead)

Michael Imperioli's net worth is around $20 million today.

3 Edie Falco

Net Worth: $50 Million

Out of all of her castmates, Edie Falco has easily turned out the best for herself in her post-Sopranos career, and it's not just because she's amassed $50 million.

After The Sopranos went off the air, she found new life as the title character in Showtime's Nurse Jackie, earning herself six Emmy nominations (with one win) and four additional Golden Globe nominations for playing her part as a prescription drug-addicted nurse trying to juggle drama from patients and staff.

2020

Law & Order True Crime (TV Mini-Series)

2017

Leslie Abramson (lead)

With several more projects in various stages of production, Falco is not slowing down with her acting career.

2 James Gandolfini

Net Worth At Time of Death: $70 Million

Even in death, James Gandolfini holds one of the higher net worths among his cast. At the time of his passing, James Gandolfini was worth $70 million.

Besides his money, the late Golden Globe winner leaves behind a legacy as one of television's most memorable anti-heroes, not to mention three Emmys and several performances in movies that are just as fondly remembered.

1 Steven Van Zandt

Net Worth: $80 Million

On paper, it's weird to think that Silvio Dante, out of all of the members of the supporting cast, would be the actor with the highest net worth. Truthfully, those familiar with the actor's work outside of the show shouldn't be so surprised, though.

Outside of the show, Steven Van Zandt has featured in some pretty big productions, including the 2019 The Irishman.

Most of Van Zandt's wealth derives from the fact that he's a highly accomplished musician with a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction to his name. He's a member of Bruce Springsteen's band, E Street Band.

Oh, and he's got the highest net worth of his The Sopranos castmates, at a cool $80 million today.
