Unless you’ve been quite literally living under a rock for the past half a decade, you know who Sophie Turner is. After all, the actor has legit been in the public eye since she burst onto our television screens in her role of Sansa Stark in Game of Thrones. And in case ya didn’t know, she was only a teenager at the time—a career move that totally ensured that she made way more money from her high school job than the rest of us did babysitting.
Thanks to the hit show (plus lucrative deals with super-fancy brands like Louis Vuitton), Sophie has a pretty impressive net worth for a 27-year-old. At least, compared to my net worth at 27, which was approximately $40,000 worth of college debt.
Let’s get into all of the deets of her hugely-impressive wealth, shall we?
‘Kay, so Game of Thrones paid *a ton* of her bills
The Game of Thrones cast was broken down into two groups: “Tier A” (aka Emilia Clarke, Kit Harington, Lena Headey, Peter Dinklage, and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) and everyone else. The salary of the Tier A cast has been revealed over the years, but for reasons that remain RUDE, Sophie isn’t in this group, so we don’t know her exact salary courtesy of HBO. But to put things in perspective, let’s take a look at what the Tier A team made for the show…
Per reports from Deadline, Tier A negotiated their per-episode salaries to $300,000 right in time for seasons 5 and 6 (their salaries for seasons 1 to 4 are unknown). There were 10 episodes in each season, which means they made up to $6,000,000 in total. Then—because why stop at $300,000 (?!?!)—Tier A renegotiated with HBO and managed to each get $500,000 per episode. Season 7 had seven episodes and season 8 had six, which means Tier A as a group made up to $6,500,000 total.
We’re guessing Sophie earned slightly less than $500K per episode because she’s not in Tier A, but she has definitely still made millions from Game of Thrones. And to be honest, she’s not upset about the pay discrepancy: “Kit got more money than me, but he had a bigger story line,” she told Harper’s Bazaar (per the Evening Standard). “And for the last series, he had something crazy like 70 night shoots, and I didn’t have that many. I was like, ‘You know what…you keep that money.’”

She’s also casually a movie S-T-A-R
Sophie was definitely pretty busy shooting Game of Thrones for a million years, but during her time on the show and after it concluded, she’s been in a few major blockbusters. By which I mean two X-Men franchise movies, X-Men: Apocalypse and Dark Phoenix. The film studio hasn’t released everyone’s salaries because of this thing called ~privacy~, but it would be shocking if Sophie made less than a million for these films, because, hello, in case you haven’t heard, superhero movies generally make a sh*t-ton of money (we don’t make the rules!).
Her endorsement taste = expensive
Sophie is pretty classy on Instagram, meaning you won’t find her shilling for random toothpaste brands (but @ Colgate if ur reading this, call me!). However, she *does* dabble in endorsements when brands like Louis Vuitton come knocking:
Who knows how much Sophie makes from LVMH, but considering she’s a face of the brand (meaning she wears their clothes to events and does commercials, etc.), we should assume it’s a lot.
So, what’s her total net worth?
According to Celebrity Net Worth, that’d be $10 million, which is a whopping $4 million more than what she made back when we last reported on Sophie’s net worth in 2019. Not too shabby for a 27-year-old!
