Sam Raimi Net Worth $55 Million

Raimi grew up in Birmingham, Michigan, along with his four siblings, one of them being the actor Ted Raimi, and another the screenwriter Ivan Raimi. After matriculating from Groves High School, he enrolled at Michigan State University to study filmmaking, but dropped out after three semesters.

Raimi became involved in filming during his teenage years, being inspired by his father who enjoyed making home movies. During his time at Michigan State, he shot two short horror films, “Within the Woods” and “Clockwork”, followed by another horror, “It’s Murder!” He eventually left college to start working on “The Evil Dead” project, which was released in 1981. The film went on to become a cult classic, bringing Raimi a lot of attention from Hollywood and considerably adding to his net worth.

In 1987 he created the sequel “Evil Dead II”, achieving modest success. His 1990 superhero film “Darkman” was also a modest hit. In 1993 Raimi released “Evil Dead III”, the last installment of the “Evil Dead” series. However, the film, retitled “Army of Darkness”, failed to achieve the success of its predecessors.

Raimi’s 1995 film “The Quick and the Dead” marked his transition from horror to the western genre, but it proved to be a box office failure. However, his next project, the 1998 crime thriller “A Simple Plan” was extremely successful, as well as his 1999 romantic drama “For Love of the Game”. The films boosted Raimi’s directing career, greatly contributing to his wealth.

Raimi enjoyed astonishing popularity during the early 2000s. In 2001 he created one of the biggest hits ever, an adaptation of the Stan Lee comic book superhero, “Spider-Man”, which became a massive box office success, grossing over $800 million worldwide. It was followed by two sequels, the 2004 “Spider-Man 2” and the 2007 “Spider-Man 3”, both scoring the box office success of the first film. The “Spider-Man” triology made Raimi a star, significantly improving his net worth.

In 2013 he directed the big-budget adventure film “Oz, the Great and Powerful”, a prequel to the classic “The Wizard of Oz”, and went on to direct two episodes of the 2015 television series “Rake”.

Aside from being a director, Raimi has also released numerous projects through his production company Ghost House Pictures, including the 2013 remake of “Evil Dead” and the entire “The Grudge” franchise. He has also produced many television series, such as “Hercules: The Legendary Journeys” and its spin-off “Xena: Warrior Princess”, “M.A.N.T.I.S.”, “American Gothic” and “Jack of All Trades”. He is currently working on a film adaption of the hit video game “The Last of Us”.

As an actor, he has made cameo appearances in films such as “Miller’s Crossing”, “The Hudsucker Proxy”, “Indian Summer” and “Spies Like Us”, as well as television films “Body Bags” and “Indian Summer”. All added to his wealth.

In his personal life, Raimi has been married to Gillian Dania Greene, daughter of the late actor Lorne Greene, since 1993. The couple has five children.

13Always has his car (a yellow 1973 Oldsmobile Delta 88 dubbed "the classic") somewhere visible to the audience in all of his films (including a modified covered wagon, according to Bruce Campbell, in The Quick and the Dead (1995)).

#Quote
1[on Crimewave (1985)] I wanted it to be the ultimate picture of entertainment. To thrill, chill, make the audience laugh, cry, scream... They screamed for their money back.
2After I made The Quick and the Dead (1995) - which was the ultimate "style-fest" for me - I felt very empty. And I felt that I cannot continue down this road of style. I need substance. So, I took a break from the movie business for a couple of years and I said that I wanted to find a picture where the script is the movie and the acting is the movie. And my wife showed me "A Simple Plan," the book from Scott B. Smith. And I loved it and it's a brilliant screenplay. And that's where I was then -- I was all about being invisible as the director, with no style and letting Bill Paxton and Billy Bob Thornton and Brent Briscoe and Bridget Fonda do the heavy lifting. And I loved it -- it reinvigorated me and reminded me of why I love the movies.
3[on undertaking Oz the Great and Powerful (2013)] I didn't want anything to do with it. I really had so much respect for the original movie that I didn't want to even read it. [But later] I actually fell in love with the characters in the story and I realized this does not dishonour the original 'Wizard of Oz' movie. It's a love note to the works of Baum.
4The Dark Knight (2008) was brilliant, and the audience seemed to love it, and I think it rightfully raises expectations for the other superhero pictures, which is a great thing for everybody, for the filmmakers, for the audience.
5I look at myself as an entertainer, more than anything else. I wanted to make the movie a little more different than the previous films. ... That was less about me growing as a craftsman. That was more about me trying to provide an element to the audience that I thought they might need something different, that came from a different place.
6In an American horror film, you usually have a character and a shot of them. Then their point-of-view moving down a hallway, approaching a door and they're coming closer to the door. And a hand reaches for the knob, and you know, the moment or the moment before or the moment after, based on the timing of the editor and the director, there'll be a big moment of an attack or a scare. What Shimizu does is a moment where Sarah Michelle Gellar is opening this closet, to see what's inside, and we Americans think something is going to jump out, there's nothing in the closet but darkness. And then you start to realize, within that darkness, you see a shape. Is it a knee? Oh, yes it's a knee, and there's a face in there. That's always been there. That I can just perceive within the blackness. And it unnerves me in the freakiest way! And in a completely different way than the sledgehammer technique of some of our cruder American directors. [pause] Such as myself!"
7At every step of the way wanted to be careful to make sure that what they thought worked in Japanese horror got translated into this. [Taka and Shimizu] didn't want to have solid explanations for everything. That was the challenge, to somehow make it acceptable to the American audience, rules being one of the many things we talked about but not lose what make it striking and unique. [on The Grudge (2004)]
8I think if people love the source material, and that's really whey they're making the movie, then that's a natural outcome. That the things we all love, and work with the creators of the movie to save the things that were so effective. I think it's situations where people don't love the material, they just say, oh that was a big hit, it could be a big hit here. It's just generalizing. Things got lost if you don't understand why people like a thing. When you love something, it's easy to say, 'That's my son, cut out his heart? No, he needs the heart.' It's harder when you don't love the thing yourself.
9And I do think there's a new crop of American filmmakers coming. And they're in high school right now. They're in Mrs. Dawson's English class! They've got new tools, they've got computers and the video cameras, which are the equivalent of our super-8mm training ground. It's even better because they can shoot for free. We had to gather up like four bucks, five bucks to buy a roll of film, another three bucks to process it, and that was a very limiting [thing], in high school you've gotta rake leaves for three hours to shoot a roll of film! So these new filmmakers have these advanced editing tools with the incredible manipulation of imagery available on a standard computer."
10And it was great making movies in college because if you made the right movie you'd get this cigar box full of $5 and $1 bills, you'd have like 500 bucks after a weekend. And it was like oh my god, we're rich! We've got to make another picture. But if the movie bombed, you spent a lot of money on the movie, on the ads at the State news, renting the theater, lugging these heavy speakers, the projector bulbs, [and] it was a washout, you realize this movie is not making money. I'm broke. I've got to make the movie that they want to see. So it was a great learning experience.
11Audiences really don't go see a lot of movies - except in L.A. and New York I think, and maybe one or two other cities, maybe Chicago - where there are foreign-born, foreign-speaking actors. That's just the culture we are.
12I love the Spider-Man character. And that's what's at the heart of it. That's why I really love it. But there's another fun thing that I never had before where you make your movie and a lot of people see it and they seem to like it. So it's like oh my god, I've always been the nerd, lame ass guy on the side, but I made something that a lot of people like. I know that won't last for long, and I'm obviously riding the Spider-Man thing. He's a popular character for 40 years. So anyone who makes a Spider-Man movie gets to make a popular movie. But it's fun to be popular, even if it's a brief, lame thing, and even though I know it's not important. I can't help it. It's really fun and I know how quickly things turn in Hollywood.
