Justin Theroux is a famous actor, film director and producer. His net worth is estimated to be $10 million as of the year 2014.
Justin Theroux was born on the 10th August 1971 in D. C., Washington, the United States. Justin made his first film which was called “I Shot Andy Warhol” in early 1996. He has appeared in many more movies, and even starred in two movies that were produced, directed and shot by David Lynch. One of them is the famous grotesque movie called “Mullholand Drive”, and the other one that is less known called “Inland Empire”.
Justin Theroux Net Worth $10 Million
Justin debuted as a successful movie director in 2006, when his film Dedication was screened at the Canned Film Festival, and it immediately gained recognition. This film led to Justin continuing to pursue his dream of being taken seriously as a filmmaker in the cinema industry and amongst the most famous movie critics. Justin is also responsible for directing such movies as the famous “Iron Man 2” as well as “Your Highness” and “Tropic Thunder”. Justin himself specializes in comedy movies that have the slight hint of action to them. That is his favorite genre of cinema.
Justin has appeared alongside such actors as James Franco, Danny McBride and Natalie Portman, and in such hit movies as “American Psycho”, “Romy and Michelle’s High School Reunion”, “Miami Vice”, “Rock of Ages”, “Strangers with Candy”, “The Baxter” and in the famous series that airs on HBO called “Six Feet Under”. Justin Theroux has also starred in a few episodes of the famous comedy drama television series called Sex and the City. This only shows how good an actor Justin has become since his co-stars nowadays are only the most famous and well-known actors, for example as in the well-known series “Ally McBeal”.
Speaking about his personal life, Justin is dating the famous actress Jennifer Aniston. They met back in 2011 on the set of the movie called Wanderlust. They instantly became friends and started dating. In 2012 the couple announced their engagement which apparently took place at a celebration of Justin’s birthday. Since Justin Theroux started dating Jennifer Aniston there has definitely been some major changes in their lives. There has even been a rumor circulating in the media that Jennifer is pregnant with twins, or one child, or that she has had a miscarriage, or that they broke up. It is safe to say that the couple’s life has been under the magnifying glass for the whole world and their fans to see.
Justin has a university degree that he obtained while studying at the Bennington College. Currently Justin is working on a screenplay for the much-anticipated movie called Zoolander 2. Since Justin played an important role in the HBO series “Six Feet Under” he has been asked to star in the new drama series called “The Leftovers” that started airing on HBO in July.

Quote
1
I remember seeing toy commercials, for Matchbox or RC cars, and there'd be these kids who had backyards with mounds of dirt and palm trees. I would be like, "What is this magical fucking place?"
2
I didn't have a lot of ambition, which I think was a good thing. I was ambitious about quality, but I wasn't ambitious in the "I've got to get a pilot!" way.

If I was roped into a seven-year TV contract I'd probably hang myself. It's a TV show - selling cars, cereal, soda pop. TV is like that. The shows are incidental to the commercials. I always laugh when TV shows pat themselves on the back for being cutting-edge. I mean, an interracial kiss on Ally McBeal (1997) is cutting-edge? I've never been shocked by anything on television, except the news.

All the stuff with the World Trade Organization, the kids in Seattle throwing a bricks through Starbucks windows - I see it as a good thing. It's saying, like "F--k you." As long as no one's killing one another, I don't think there's anything wrong with throwing a brick through the window of McDonalds. I'm sort of inspired when I see people thinking like that.

I watched the movie Cast Away (2000). It's a perfectly fine movie. But you can never fully believe that movie. How can we believe this man is being cast away? We know it's Tom Hanks and we know the color of his couch in his house in L.A. because we saw a picture of it in People magazine. His celebrity has corrupted his art form.

It's like, once you've seen Tom Hanks win the Golden Globes, the Oscars, you've seen his wife, what kind of car he drives, when you watch his movies, you can't fully get really lost in them.
