Stephen Graham

Basically the hardest working man in television

Stephen Graham has been an established actor for years, and now after the success of Netflix’s new show Adolescence, his net worth has never looked so healthy.

Stephen is a giant of British television with literal decades of experience under his belt. His career began in 1990 when he appeared in minor roles in Dancin’ Thru the Dark and TV’s Children’s Ward. Since then, he’s been in dozens of projects ranging from blockbusters such as Pirates of the Caribbean to TV shows like Boardwalk Empire.

Though all of his roles are standout, his most successful projects are undoubtedly the smaller British titles such as Boiling Point, The Walk-In, and most recently, Netflix’s Adolescence.

As such, he’s absolutely loaded – take a look.
