Sophie Marceau Net Worth $50 million

Marceau debuted in the movie “La Boum” in 1980 which was a hit, so that the next year she reprised her role as Vic Beretton in the movie sequel “La Boum 2”. Her first movie gave Sophie a huge break-through in the French movie industry and established her as one of the most talented actresses in France and Europe. However, she earned her international recognition by starring in the Hollywood movie “Braveheart”(1995) alongside popular actor Mel Gibson. She continued to increase her popularity by appearing in hit movies including “Beyond The Clouds” by Michelangelo Antonioni and Wim Wenders, “Marquise” by Vera Belmont, and “Anna Karenina” by Bernard Rose among many others.
