What Is Emma Myers' Net Worth?
Emma Myers is an American actress who has a net worth of $3 million.
Emma Myers became an international star through her role as the colorful werewolf Enid Sinclair opposite Jenna Ortega on Netflix's "Wednesday." Although Myers had acted intermittently since childhood, the supernatural comedy became her breakthrough when its first season developed into one of the most-watched programs in Netflix history. She followed that success by starring in the Netflix comedy "Family Switch," playing Natalie in the nearly $1 billion blockbuster "A Minecraft Movie," and taking her first television lead as Pippa Fitz-Amobi in "A Good Girl's Guide to Murder."
The latter series gave Myers an opportunity to prove that her success extended beyond the "Wednesday" ensemble. Its first season debuted at #1 on Netflix's global English-language television chart, followed by a second season in 2026 and plans for a third and final season. Myers has also developed significant commercial value away from acting. With more than 10 million social media followers, she has worked with brands including Coach, Samsung, and Calvin Klein and become a regular presence in international fashion campaigns and events.
Early Life
Emma Elizabeth Myers was born on April 2, 2002, in Orlando, Florida. She is the second of four sisters and grew up in a homeschooled family rather than attending a traditional school.
Myers initially gravitated toward dance and community theater. One of her earliest jobs was a Publix supermarket commercial in which she played a child stealing a strawberry from a refrigerator. At eight years old, she appeared in small roles in the television series "The Glades," the film "Letters to God," and the short film "Crooked."
Acting did not immediately become a full-time childhood career. Myers stepped away from it around age 12 and focused more heavily on competitive dance. When she was 16, her family moved to the Atlanta area, where Georgia's rapidly growing film and television industry gave her an opportunity to pursue screen acting more seriously.
Fantasy films were a particularly important inspiration. Myers has said she repeatedly watched behind-the-scenes material from "The Lord of the Rings" movies as a child and became fascinated not only with the actors but with the process of creating fictional worlds. She also loved "The Chronicles of Narnia," "Star Wars," anime, and other fandom-driven entertainment.
Return to Acting
After returning to professional acting in her late teens, Myers began accumulating modest television and film credits. In 2020, she appeared on ABC's "The Baker and the Beauty" and in the television movie "A Taste of Christmas." The following year, she played Marie Cody in the Lifetime film "Girl in the Basement."
She also appeared in the faith-based musical drama "Southern Gospel," which was filmed before her breakthrough but released in 2023. None of these projects made Myers famous, but they allowed her to build experience after several years away from professional sets.
Her career changed when she auditioned for Netflix's new Addams Family series, "Wednesday." Myers initially auditioned for the title role before ultimately being considered for Enid Sinclair, Wednesday Addams' relentlessly cheerful werewolf roommate.
"Wednesday"
"Wednesday," developed by Alfred Gough and Miles Millar with Tim Burton directing its opening episodes, premiered on Netflix in November 2022. Myers' Enid was designed as the visual and emotional opposite of Ortega's Wednesday: brightly dressed, enthusiastic, social, and optimistic compared with Wednesday's almost entirely black wardrobe and deadpan personality.
The friendship between Wednesday and Enid quickly became one of the show's most popular relationships. Myers' performance also gave Enid a story independent of her roommate as she struggled with pressure from her werewolf family and her inability to transform fully.
"Wednesday" became a phenomenon. Its first season generated roughly 1.7 billion viewing hours during its initial measurement period and established Myers as a recognizable actor worldwide almost overnight. The success was particularly dramatic for someone who had never experienced traditional high school; Myers later joked that living and filming with the young cast in Romania gave her something resembling the school social experience she had missed while being homeschooled.
Myers returned as Enid for the second season, which premiered in 2025. The season expanded Enid's werewolf storyline and again placed her relationship with Wednesday at the center of the series. Netflix reported 124 million views for the season during the second half of 2025, making it the platform's most-watched television season during that six-month period.
The role also put Myers alongside established performers including Catherine Zeta-Jones, Luis Guzmán, and Steve Buscemi while transforming her from a largely unknown working actor into one of Netflix's most visible young stars.
"Family Switch"
Myers quickly used the momentum from "Wednesday" to move into feature films. She joined Jennifer Garner and Ed Helms in the 2023 Netflix comedy "Family Switch."
Myers played CC Walker, an aspiring soccer player who swaps bodies with her mother, played by Garner. Preparing for the film required Myers to imitate Garner's movements and mannerisms, and she worked with a movement coach to make the body-switch premise believable.
The project was especially meaningful to Myers because she had repeatedly watched Garner's earlier body-swap comedy "13 Going on 30" growing up. It also allowed her to demonstrate a broader comedic style outside the highly stylized world of "Wednesday."
"A Good Girl's Guide to Murder"
Myers took on her first major leading role with "A Good Girl's Guide to Murder," based on Holly Jackson's bestselling young-adult mystery novels. She plays Pippa "Pip" Fitz-Amobi, a British teenager who begins investigating a murder in her hometown because she doubts that the person blamed for the crime was responsible.
The role presented several new challenges. Myers had to carry nearly every episode, learn a British accent on a short timetable, and portray a character much closer to her own relatively reserved personality than the exuberant Enid. She worked with a dialect coach and extensively studied Jackson's novels before filming.
The first season premiered in Britain through the BBC before arriving on Netflix internationally in August 2024. It debuted at #1 on Netflix's Global Top 10 list for English-language television.
The success turned "A Good Girl's Guide to Murder" into a second franchise for Myers. She returned for a six-episode second season in 2026, adapting "Good Girl, Bad Blood," with Zain Iqbal again starring opposite her as Ravi Singh. Soon after the second season's release, a third and final season was ordered to complete Pip's story.
For Myers, the series was an important career development because it proved she could anchor a production rather than simply play a popular supporting character in an established ensemble.
"A Minecraft Movie"
Myers moved into blockbuster filmmaking with 2025's "A Minecraft Movie," the live-action adaptation of the enormously successful video game. She played Natalie, the older sister and guardian of Henry, one of several characters transported into Minecraft's cubic Overworld.
The film placed Myers alongside Jack Black, Jason Momoa, Danielle Brooks, and Sebastian Hansen. It became one of the biggest theatrical successes of 2025.
"A Minecraft Movie" opened with more than $160 million in the United States and ultimately grossed roughly $960 million worldwide. That made it by far the highest-grossing film of Myers' career and exposed her to another enormous global fan base beyond the audiences for "Wednesday" and "A Good Girl's Guide to Murder."
She subsequently joined the voice cast of "The Angry Birds Movie 3," adding animation to a résumé that had quickly expanded across streaming television, family comedy, mystery, and large-scale studio filmmaking.
Earnings and Endorsements
The salaries Myers received for "Wednesday," "A Good Girl's Guide to Murder," "Family Switch," and "A Minecraft Movie" have not been publicly disclosed. Her financial position changed substantially, however, after "Wednesday" turned her into a globally recognizable performer.
In addition to acting salaries, Myers has accumulated a sizable social media audience, with roughly 11 million followers across major platforms. That visibility has produced relationships with fashion, technology, and lifestyle companies.
Her commercial partnerships have included Coach, Samsung, and Calvin Klein. She has also become a regular attendee at major fashion events and has worked closely with designers including Thom Browne. These partnerships provide an additional source of income independent of her film and television work.
Myers remains relatively early in her earning career. Unlike performers whose fortunes reflect decades of salaries, backend participation, real estate, and investments, the majority of her high-profile work has occurred since the 2022 debut of "Wednesday."
Personal Life
Myers has described herself as much more introverted than Enid Sinclair and has generally kept her private life out of the celebrity press. She is particularly enthusiastic about fantasy, anime, gaming, and K-pop and is a longtime fan of the South Korean group Seventeen.
Her interest in fandom predates her own fame. Myers has spoken about finding comfort in fictional worlds while growing up and understanding why fans develop intense attachments to characters, performers, and stories. That experience made the enormous online communities surrounding "Wednesday," "A Good Girl's Guide to Murder," and "Minecraft" somewhat familiar territory even as she adjusted to being the person fans were discussing.
Despite becoming internationally famous in her early 20s, Myers has continued to describe acting in fairly simple terms: it was the career she wanted from childhood. After years of community theater, commercials, small parts, and a lengthy break from the business, "Wednesday" gave her the breakthrough that turned that childhood ambition into a major Hollywood career.
