Gene Hackman Net Worth $80 Million
Gene Hackman’s education did not extend past high school, and in 1946 he joined the US Marines, serving for five years as a radio operator. He then worked at several jobs in NewYork, which earned him enough money to move to California in 1956, where he joined the Pasadena Playhouse company. He had little success, and with other aspiring actors Dustin Hoffman and Robert Duvall, moved back to New York and found roles in off-Broadway plays. These eventually led to film and TV roles, the first in 1964 was in “Lilith” with Warren Beaty, then in an episode of the TV series “The Invaders”.
A more significant supporting role for Gene Hackman was Buck Barrow in “Bonnie and Clyde” in 1967, again with Warren Beaty as well as Faye Dunaway, which earned him an Oscar nomination as Best Supporting Actor. From these early beginnings, Gene has subsequently appeared in more than 80 films, showing his versatility by playing a very wide variety of starring and supporting roles from ‘bad man’ to policeman and comedy parts, which made him very popular with viewing audiences, and much sort-after by film directors. Of course, his continuing activities did no harm to Gene Hackman’s net worth, which grew steadily if unspectacularly throughout his career.
Gene Hackman’s most notable performances include his role as ‘Popeye’ Doyle in “The French Connection” in 1971, for which he won an Academy Award (Oscar) for Best Actor. (He later starred in “The French Connection 2” in 1975.) Gene then played Reverend Frank Scott in “The Poseidon Adventure” in 1972; Harry Caul in “The Conversation” directed by Francis Ford Coppola in 1974, which film was nominated for several Oscars; and also in 1972 Harold – the blind man, a comedic role in “Young Frankenstein”. These were followed by ‘the baddie’ Lex Luther in “Superman”(1978). Gene Hackman’s net worth was growing all the time.
Gene Hackman was nominated as Best Supporting Actor for playing FBI agent Rupert Anderson in “Mississippi Burning”(1988), and then won an Oscar as Best Supporting Actor for his portrayal of sadistic sheriff Daggett in “Unforgiven”(1992), directed by Clint Eastwood, which also won the Best Picture Oscar. (1993). Hackman then played General Crook in “Geronimo: an American Legend”; a corrupt lawyer in “The Firm”(1993) with Tom Cruise; a hopeless Hollywood producer in “Get Shorty”(1995); and a submarine captain in “The Crimson Tide”(1995) with Denzel Washington; and a death row convict in “The Chamber”(1996).
There are many other films which could be mentioned, but these examples show Gene Hackman’s versatility, and the reason why his net worth is considerable. One further, major accolade happened in 2003, when Gene Hackman was honored with the ‘Ceci B. deMille Award’ for his “outstanding contribution to the entertainment field”. Following this event, Gene decided to retire from acting, and concentrate on writing. However, the roles he played and many of the films in which he acted are still popular around the world.
As a novelist, Gene Hackman has written six books, with topics and plots as varied as his acting roles, and which have contributed to his net worth.
In his personal life, Gene Hackman has three children from his first marriage to Faye Maltese(1956-86). Gene married Betsy Arakawa in 1991, and they live in Sante Fe, New Mexico.

| # | Quote |
|---|---|
| 1 | [beginning his acceptance speech at the Golden Globes, when he won Best Supporting Actor for Unforgiven (1992) thinking he wouldn't win] Heck, I've just lost a hundred bucks. |
| 2 | Our dreams are usually limited by some kind of reality check and because a guy thinks because he can pluck a guitar a couple of strokes he thinks he's going to be Elvis Presley or whoever. |
| 3 | [on writing novels] With me it takes quite a long time, at least a year maybe a little more by the time I go through two or three edits, professional edits, but it's still fun because it's always a challenge. |
| 4 | [on whether he will ever come out of retirement and act again] Only in reruns. Yeah, that's it. I'm at a place where I feel very good about not having to work all night. |
| 5 | I'm disappointed that success hasn't been a Himalayan feeling. |
| 6 | (2011, on Hoosiers (1986)) I took the film at a time that I was desperate for money. I took it for all the wrong reasons, and it turned out to be one of those films that stick around. I was from that area of the country and knew of that event, strangely enough. We filmed fifty miles from where I was brought up. So it was a bizarre feeling. I never expected the film to have the kind of legs it's had. |
| 7 | (2011, on where he keeps his Oscars) You know, I'm not sure; I don't have any memorabilia around the house. There isn't any movie stuff except a poster downstairs next to the pool table of Errol Flynn from The Dawn Patrol (1938). I'm not a sentimental guy. |
| 8 | (2011, on how he'd like to be remembered) As a decent actor. As someone who tried to portray what was given to them in an honest fashion. I don't know, beyond that. I don't think about that often, to be honest. I'm at an age where I should think about it. |
| 9 | [on making The French Connection (1971)] I found out very quickly that I am not a violent person. And these cops are surrounded by violence all the time. There were a couple of days when I wanted to get out of the picture. |
| 10 | [In a 2011 GQ interview, when asked if he would ever come out of retirement and make another film] I don't know. If I could do it in my own house, maybe, without them disturbing anything and just one or two people. |
| 11 | I haven't held a press conference to announce retirement, but yes, I'm not going to act any longer. I've been told not to say that over the last few years, in case some real wonderful part comes up, but I really don't want to do it any longer ... I miss the actual acting part of it, as it's what I did for almost fifty years, and I really loved that. But the business for me is very stressful. The compromises that you have to make in films are just part of the beast, and it had gotten to a point where I just didn't feel like I wanted to do it anymore. |
| 12 | When you're on top, you get a sense of immortality. You feel you can do no wrong, that it will always be good no matter what the role. Well, in truth, that feeling is death. You must be honest with yourself. |
| 13 | People in the street still call me Popeye, and The French Connection (1971) was 15 years ago. I wish I could have a new hit and another nickname. |
| 14 | Dysfunctional families have sired a number of pretty good actors. |
| 15 | The difference between a hero and a coward is one step sideways. |
| 16 | I suppose I wanted to be an actor from the time I was about 10, maybe even younger than that. Recollections of early movies that I had seen and actors that I admired like James Cagney, Errol Flynn, those kind of romantic action guys. When I saw those actors, I felt I could do that. But I was in New York for about eight years before I had a job. I sold ladies shoes, polished leather furniture, drove a truck. I think that if you have it in you and you want it bad enough, you can do it. |
| 17 | I wanted to act, but I'd always been convinced that actors had to be handsome. That came from the days when Errol Flynn was my idol. I'd come out of a theater and be startled when I looked in a mirror because I didn't look like Flynn. I felt like him. |
| 18 | [on seeing Marlon Brando in A Streetcar Named Desire (1951) and becoming determined to be an actor] He made it seem something natural. |
| 19 | I came to New York when I was 25, and I worked at Howard Johnson's in Times Square, where I did the door in this completely silly uniform. Before that, I had been a student at the Pasadena Playhouse, where I had been awarded the least-likely-to-succeed prize, along with my pal Dustin Hoffman, which was a big reason we set off for New York together. Out of nowhere, this teacher I totally despised at the Pasadena Playhouse suddenly walked by HoJo's and came right up into my face and shouted, "See, Hackman, I told you that you would never amount to anything!" I felt one inch tall. |
| 20 | If I start to become a "star", I'll lose contact with the normal guys I play best. |
| 21 | [on accepting his Best Actor Oscar] I wish all five of us could be up here, I really do. |
| 22 | [Dustin Hoffman on him and Hackman as young stage actors and roommates in New York] Psychologically, Gene/myself, we did not think about making it in the terms that people think about. We fully expected to be failures for our entire life. Meaning that we would always be scrambling to get a part. We were actors. We had no pretensions. There was more dignity in being unsuccessful. |
| 23 | [on aging] It really costs me a lot emotionally to watch myself on-screen. I think of myself, and feel like I'm quite young, and then I look at this old man with the baggy chins and the tired eyes and the receding hairline and all that. |
| 24 | I was trained to be an actor, not a star. I was trained to play roles, not to deal with fame and agents and lawyers and the press. |

This made Hackman instantly respect and like Donner immensely. |

| 23 | Was a Dallas Cowboys fan but now regularly attends Jacksonville Jaguars games as a guest of his friend, head coach Jack Del Rio. |
| 24 | Studied journalism and TV production at the University of Illinois, where he was voted "Least Likely to Succeed.". |
| 25 | Before he decided to become an actor, he worked numerous jobs including announcing at small radio and TV stations. |
| 26 | Appeared on Richard Nixon's infamous "List of Enemies" during the 1972 presidential election, the only time Hackman was publicly involved in politics. During an interview on Larry King Live (1985) in July 2004, Hackman stated that although he is a Democrat, he liked President Ronald Reagan, who had died the previous month. |
| 27 | Hackman has said that the failure of Scarecrow (1973) turned him off of art films due to the disappointment of working hard on a film that was critically acclaimed, but that tanked at the box office and failed to garner any awards. After this flop, Hackman mainly concentrated on acting for money, turning down such films as One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975) and Network (1976) for roles in films like March or Die (1977) and Lucky Lady (1975) that offered him fatter paychecks. |
| 28 | His performance as Harry Caul in The Conversation (1974) is ranked #37 on Premiere Magazine's 100 Greatest Performances of All Time (2006). |
| 29 | Hackman replaced George Segal in the role of Kibby in the notorious flop Lucky Lady (1975). Possibly anticipating that the film would be a turkey, Segal bailed out of the production and Hackman was brought in at the last-minute. The desperate producers paid Hackman - riding high from the huge box office success of The Poseidon Adventure (1972)--a reported $1.2 million for his role, $500,000 more than Segal's going rate. Hackman knew co-star Burt Reynolds from starring in the first episode of Burt's short-lived 1966 TV series Hawk (1966). |
| 30 | Has played three fictional Presidents: he plays President Alan Richmand in Absolute Power (1997). His Superman (1978) character, Lex Luthor, became President of the United States in the year 2000, in the DC Comics. He also played President Monroe "Eagle" Cole in Welcome to Mooseport (2004). |
| 31 | In the Superman movies, he didn't like the idea of going bald for his role as Lex Luthor. He was allowed to wear wigs instead, and was convinced to wear a bald cap in only a few scenes. |
| 32 | Is one of only a few actors to win an Oscar for a supporting role after winning an Oscar for a leading role. (Others to do so are Jack Nicholson, Maggie Smith and Helen Hayes). |
| 33 | 1990: Underwent successful angioplasty surgery after nearly suffering a severe heart attack. |
| 34 | In Robert Osborne's "Academy Awards 1972 Oscar Annual", Hackman is quoted as saying Errol Flynn was his boyhood idol. Says a poster of Flynn is one of the only movie mementos he has in his otherwise very "civilian" Santa Fe home. |
| 35 | After flunking out of the Pasadena Playhouse and moving to New York City with fellow drop-out Dustin Hoffman, Hackman worked at the Howard Johnson's restaurant in Times Square as a doorman. One day, a Pasadena Playhouse acting teacher whom Hackman hated walked by him, stopped, and told him that he had been right, that Hackman would never amount to anything. |
| 36 | While a struggling actor in New York City, he worked as a soda jerk in a pharmacy and as a furniture mover. But told Time Magazine in 2011 that "worst job I ever had" was working nights at the legendary Chrysler Building--as part of a crew that polished the leather furniture. |
| 37 | In a 2004 Vanity Fair story on him, Dustin Hoffman, and Robert Duvall, Hackman said one of the worst memories of being a struggling actor, was working as a doorman in New York City. He recalled having seen former Marine officers pass him by when opening the door for them, of which one had said "Hackman, you're a sorry son of a bitch." |
| 38 | Turned down the lead role of Roy Neary in Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977) because he was in a troubled marriage and could not spend 16 weeks outside of Los Angeles on location shooting. |
| 39 | Even though he is no longer a cigarette smoker, Hackman played the role of a chain-smoker in Heartbreakers (2001). He was using a special kind of cigarette that only produces heavy smoke without requiring any inhaling. Ironically and tragically, in 1962, Hackman's mother Lydia died of injuries incurred from a fire caused by her own smoking. |
| 40 | As a young man, Hackman attended a showing of the movie A Streetcar Named Desire (1951) and was impressed by the performance of Marlon Brando due to his naturalism and the fact that he didn't look like what a movie star typically looked like in the 1950s. After exiting the theater, he told his father that he wanted to be an actor. |
| 41 | Lives in Santa Fe, New Mexico. |
| 42 | Enjoys painting and writing fiction. |
| 43 | Along with Margot Kidder, Hackman was appalled at the way Alexander Salkind and Ilya Salkind, the producers of the first three Superman films and 1984's Supergirl (1984) film, had treated director Richard Donner, who had directed the first Superman (1978) and most of the second Superman film back-to-back before he was fired by the Salkinds over creative differences. Hackman, who said he only did the first two movies because of Donner's persuasion, was so angry with the Salkinds that he vehemently refused to reprise the role of Lex Luthor in Superman III (1983), while Margot Kidder, who played Lois Lane, only appeared in a cameo role. Hackman was later persuaded to reprise the Luthor role in Superman IV: The Quest for Peace (1987). |
| 44 | After he played Little Bill in Unforgiven (1992), Hackman vowed not to appear in any more violent films. After he had been in violent films dating back to Bonnie and Clyde (1967) and The French Connection (1971) (in a role refused by Peter Boyle for the same reasons), he said he was fed up with them. |
| 45 | Reportedly turned down one of the lead roles in Network (1976). |
| 46 | Reportedly turned down the role of Randall Patrick McMurphy in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975). |
| 47 | Says watching his own films makes him terribly nervous. |
| 48 | 7/7/04: Appeared on Larry King Live (1985). Larry King was surprised to find out that Hackman had no movies lined up, and Hackman replied by saying that he thinks it is the end of his career. |
| 49 | Turned down the lead roles in Jaws (1975), Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977), and Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981). |
| 50 | Was the subject of the song "Gene Hackman" by Hoodoo Gurus. |
| 51 | Was admitted into the famed Pasadena Playhouse on the G.I. Bill. He failed out of it after 3 months and moved to New York to continue being a stage actor.

| 52 | Met actor Dustin Hoffman in the first month at Pasadena Playhouse. Had several classes with him. |
| 53 | Runaway Jury (2003) was the first time he and former roommate Dustin Hoffman performed on the screen together. |
| 54 | Dustin Hoffman asked for the part of Rankin Fitch in Runaway Jury (2003), which had gone to Hackman. Hoffman admits to asking, "Can't you get rid of Gene and give me the part?". |
| 55 | As roommates, Dustin Hoffman and Hackman would often go to the apartment rooftop and play the drums. Hoffman played the bongo drums while Hackman played the conga drums. They did it out of their love for Marlon Brando, who they had heard played music in clubs. They wanted to be like Brando and were big fans of his. |
| 56 | Dustin Hoffman came to New York after finishing his training at the Pasadena Playhouse. The two of them roomed together in New York at Hackman's one-bedroom apartment on 2nd Ave. & 26th St. Hoffman slept on the kitchen floor. Originally, Hackman had offered to let him stay a few nights, but Hoffman would not leave. Hackman had to take him out to look for his own apartment. |
| 57 | Based his role, in The Conversation (1974), on one of his uncles and a fellow Marine he had known well. He characterized the Marine as someone "who probably became a serial killer". |
