Lizzy Caplan Net Worth $6 Million
Elizabeth Anne Caplan was born in Los Angeles, California in 1982 in a Jewish family. Lizzy has been interested in arts since she was a child but her first choice of interest was piano, therefore she was attended the Academy of Music. However, later she became interested in drama, and apparently that was not a bad choice at all. Lizzy’s first step towards fame was an appearance in a teen comedy show “Freaks and Geeks” in 1999. She began getting guest roles in many shows, most notable of which was “Smallville” where she appeared in one episode in 2001, and later she was seen in two episodes of “Once and Again” on ABC. Starring in Jason Mraz’s music video called “You and I both” also increased Lizzy Caplan’s net worth.
Lizzy Caplan’s first really noticeable role was in the 2004 feature film “Mean Girls”. This teen comedy was director by Mark Waters and featured actresses Lindsay Lohan, Rachel McAdams, Amanda Seyfried, Lacey Chabert and Tina Fey. Naturally, this successful film added to Lizzy Caplan’s net worth and also helped her get more acting jobs. She appeared in a second season of the supernatural drama series “Tru Calling” where she appeared as main character Tru Davies’s friend Avery Bishop. In 2005 Lizzy also had a role in a comedy-drama series “Related” and a year later in a sitcom “The Class”. The same year she appeared in a thriller film called “Love is a Drug” and was noticed by the Variety magazine which included her in the list of “10 actors to watch”.
Lizzy Caplan’s next big success was a 2008 movie “Cloverfield”, a sci-fi monster movie directed by Matt Reeves. This film earned Lizzy a nomination at the Saturn Awards in the category of Best Supporting Actress. The next film Caplan appeared in Howard Deutch’s romantic comedy “My Best Friend’s Girl” where she played along with Kate Hudson and Dane Cook.
Lizzy Caplan continues to work on both television and big screen and thus increasing her net worth.

Quote

[when asked who she wants to work with] Hands down, the Streep, obviously.

(About the different characters that she has played and how they are like her actual self) I try to bring elements of my own personality to every character I've played, but I think I'm pretty similar to the character I'm playing now (on the series The Class (2006)). The biggest departure would have to have been Freaks and Geeks (1999) Sara, who was this sort of subordinate and shy girl.
3
(About the role of Marjee Sorelli on WB's Related (2005)) She's just fun. I almost never get to play the one who has the good clothes and lots of boyfriends and is crazy and wild.
