May 2024 · 6 minute read

Highlights

Ah, Community! This sitcom totally stole our hearts with its amazing mix of misfits, meta-humor, and a hint of that pop culture magic.

Created by the absolutely brilliant Dan Harmon, Community took us on a wild six season ("and a movie") ride from 2009 all the way to 2015. We're about to dive into the lives of these beloved cast members, and uncover just how big their bank accounts are now.

9 Danny Pudi: $3 Million

Abed Nadir was brought to life flawlessly by Danny Pudi. The man who effortlessly blended pop culture obsession with fourth-wall-breaking antics had more tricks up his sleeve than we realized.

Pudi found success beyond Community as a commendable comedian and voice actor, for animated gems like DuckTales, Star vs. The Forces Of Evil, and Mythic Quest. His talent even shone through in films like The Tiger Hunter and The Argument ... no wonder he's accumulated a cool net worth of $3 million.

8 Yvette Nicole Brown: $4 Million

Shirley Bennett radiated religious devotion and motherly love within the study group thanks to Yvette Nicole Brown's outstanding performance. But did you know she also dabbled in writing and hosting?

Brown showcased her acting range with appearances in films such as Dreamgirls, Tropic Thunder, and Avengers: Endgame, as well as in recurring roles on beloved TV shows. With all these achievements under her belt, Brown boasts a substantial estimated net worth of $4 million.

7 Gillian Jacobs: $5 Million

Playing the outspoken activist Britta Perry was none other than Gillian Jacobs herself. But she didn't stop there; this film and theater actress wowed us with her performances in movies such as Life Partners and Don't Think Twice, not to mention her recurring roles in notable TV shows like Girls, and Love.

6 Jim Rash: $8 Million

Dean Craig Pelton stole our hearts with his eccentricity and flamboyance thanks to Jim Rash's brilliant portrayal ... and this man isn't limited to acting. In addition to co-writing the Oscar-winning film The Descendants with Alexander Payne and Nat Faxon, Rash also co-directed and co-wrote The Way Way Back, while lending his voice to Gyro Gearloose on DuckTales.

All these achievements have led him down a path lined with success, and an estimated net worth of $8 million.

5 Alison Brie: $10 Million

Annie Edison, the young go-getter student with an enduring crush on the character of Jeff, was brought to life by the talented Alison Brie. Brie is not limited to television, and has left a lasting impression in the film industry, too.

Brie has starred in The Disaster Artist, and made a splash on premium television shows like Mad Men, BoJack Horseman, and GLOW. With all these accomplishments to her ongoing credit, it's no surprise that her estimated net worth stands at a solid $10 million.

4 Joel McHale: $14 Million

Charismatic leader Jeff Winger was the center of the Community cast, and portrayed by the multi-talented Joel McHale ... not only an actor, but also a skilled comedian, writer, and producer, who first made waves with his presentation of the pop culture centric show The Soup. McHale added more feathers to his cap with appearances in movies like Ted and The Happytime Murders.

McHale has resumed hosting vis-à-vis ABC's game show Card Sharks, and this versatile star boasts an estimated net worth of $14 million.

3 Ken Jeong: $14 Million

Who can forget Ben Chang, Community's unstable Spanish teacher turned study group rival? Comedic genius Ken Jeong didn't just bring his a-game to Community – he took it further and had fans of the cult hit constantly laughing.

Jeong notably stole the show in a similar fashion in movies like the Hangover trilogy, Knocked Up, and Crazy Rich Asians ... legendary performances which, among other things, spawned countless memes. Consequently, Ken Jeong's net worth rings in at a whopping estimated $14 million.

2 Donald Glover: $35 Million

Community's lovable former high school star Troy Barnes was masterfully animated by none other than Donald Glover. Glover is more than just an actor and wears many hats - he's a rapper, singer, songwriter, producer, and director, who goes by the iconic stage name Childish Gambino.

As Childish Gambino, Glover won multiple Grammys for massive hits like "This Is America," "Redbone," and "3005," and his popular new series Atlanta is critically acclaimed, catapulting him to even higher heights in the entertainment industry. Glover later landed the iconic role of Lando Calrissian in Solo: A Star Wars Story.

With all these accomplishments spanning nearly every aspect of the entertainment industry (and countless talents to match), it's no wonder that Glover has skyrocketed to an estimated net worth of $35 million. The way Glover seamlessly transitions between different creative endeavors functionally ensures his success in whatever medium he chooses.

1 Chevy Chase: $50 Million

Next on the list is the actor behind Community's Pierce Hawthorne, the wealthy yet arrogant elder member of the study group played flawlessly by Chevy Chase. Chase was long known as comedy legend, and was one of Saturday Night Live's original cast members.

He starred in classic movies such as Caddyshack, National Lampoon’s Vacation, and Fletch. Coming in hot with a massive estimated net worth of $50 million, Chase has managed to build a massive fortune – in spite of his extensively documented conflicts and difficulties on the set of Community.

While Chevy Chase ranks at the top in terms of our beloved Community cast members' net worths, this list clearly features a number of rising stars with bright (and green) futures in the entertainment industry. The cast of Community proved to be more than just talented actors; they were an ensemble of diverse artists who conquered various fields within the entertainment industry.

And not only did they rock our screens, but off-screen, their incredible on-screen chemistry as a group of friends quickly translated into real-life friendships. Finally, the cast has repeatedly expressed their interest in making a movie based on Community's iconic catchphrase (courtesy of Abed), "six seasons and a movie."
