Scott Rudin was brought up in a Jewish family on Long Island, where he completed his education. However, when he was 18 years old he effectively eschewed college, and began pursuing his career in the entertainment world, having already gained some experience as a producer, working for Kermit Bloomgarden as an assistant to Kermit’s theatre productions. After that, he started working with Robert Whitehead and Emanuel Azenberg as a casting director, and later on founded his own company, which during the 1970s put together a cast that would feature in such productions as “Annie” (1977), then “Verna: USO Girl” (1978), and “The Scarlet Letter” (1979), among others. His net worth was well established.
He then moved to LA, and got a job at the Edgar J. Scherick Associates, as a producer, and during this stint he oversaw the creation of such films as “I’m Dancing As Fast As I Can” (1981), and “He Makes Me Feel Like Dancin`” (1983), both of which added a considerable amount to his net worth. Encouraged by the success of the early films he produced, Scott started another company, Scott Rudin Productions, and made a solo debut with the film “Mrs. Soffel” in 1984, directed by Gilliam Armstrong. However, he got a chance to join 20th Century Fox, and became the studio’s executive producer. Two yearslater, Scott became president of production, at only 29 years of age, reflecting appreciation for his talent, and considerably boosting his net worth.

Since then, Scott’s net worth has increased considerably, as he has produced some high profile films which received numerous awards, and earned millions, including for his own net worth. Some of these are “No Country for Old Men” (2007), “There Will Be Blood” (2007) “Fantastic Mr. Fox” (2009), “True Grit” (2010), “The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo” (2011), and “The Grand Budapest Hotel” (2014).
Most recently he has produced films “Steve Jobs” (2015), “Zoolander 2” (2016), and “Fences” (2016).
