Emma Stone Net Worth $18 Million
She first showed serious interest in becoming an actress when she was 11 years old, having participated in school plays partly, she says, to overcome panis attacks; at the time she was a member of the Phoenix Valley Youth Theatre. Intermittently home-schooled, and at Cocopath Middle School, she convinced her parents that it was time for her to move on, and the family moved to California where she would be better able to follow her dream of becoming an actress.
Emma took-up her professional screen name, as Emily was already taken. After appearing in a few minor roles in TV series, Emma auditioned for and secured the role of Laurie Partridge in the VH1 reality series “The New Partridge Family” in 2004. She then appeared in several other TV shows before auditioning for the role of Jules in the independent teen comedy called “Superbad”, which led to her getting a part alongside Anna Faris in the movie “House Bunny” as well as landing parts in such movies as “Ghosts of Girlfriends Past”, “Paperman”, “Zombieland” and others. Emma was first nominated for an award was in 2010, a Golden Globe award for her role of Olive Penderghast in the movie called “Easy A”. Then she got parts in the movies “The Help”, and “Crazy, Stupid, Love” in which she acted alongside Ryan Gosling. One of most critically acclaimed performances Emma has given was her role as Gwen Stacy in the famous comic book and action movie franchise “The Amazing Spider Man”. She also starred in the movie called “Gangster Squad”, again alongside Ryan Gosling, and she has lent her voice to various characters as a voice-over actress too. A few to mention would be live action adventure series called “Drive”, “Two-Lane Backdrop”, and “Death Race 2000”, all of which added steadily to her net worth. “La La Land” is very probably a further step on Emma’s road to acting greatness.
Speaking about her personal life, Emma dated her fellow actor Andrew Garfield from 2010 when they first met when making the movie “The Amazing Spider Man”, but separated in 2015. Generally Emma refuses to speak about her private life, although she has apparently dated a few musicians. Emma Stone also enjoys cooking.
