The available published figures give estimated net worths for two of The Good Place’s six principal cast members: Ted Danson at $80 million and Kristen Bell at $40 million. A 2020 entertainment article attributed both estimates to Celebrity Net Worth. They are not verified disclosures, and that article did not provide figures for the other four principals.
Who counts as the principal cast?
This comparison covers the six performers who anchor the series: Kristen Bell (Eleanor Shellstrop), William Jackson Harper (Chidi Anagonye), Jameela Jamil (Tahani Al-Jamil), D’Arcy Carden (Janet), Manny Jacinto (Jason Mendoza), and Ted Danson (Michael). IMDb’s full cast and crew listing credits each with 50 episodes. The show also has a larger recurring ensemble, but the available net-worth roundup does not support a complete comparison of that broader group.

Published net-worth estimates for the six leads
Showbiz Cheat Sheet’s October 30, 2020 article, “The Good Place: Which Star Has the Highest Net Worth?”, attributed its two figures to Celebrity Net Worth. These are third-party estimates published at that time, not confirmed personal financial statements.
| Cast member | Figure reported | Source and status |
|---|---|---|
| Ted Danson | $80 million estimated net worth | Showbiz Cheat Sheet, October 30, 2020; attributed to Celebrity Net Worth. Historical secondary estimate, not an official disclosure. |
| Kristen Bell | $40 million estimated net worth | Showbiz Cheat Sheet, October 30, 2020; attributed to Celebrity Net Worth. Historical secondary estimate, not an official disclosure. |
| William Jackson Harper | Undisclosed in the article | Showbiz Cheat Sheet, October 30, 2020; no figure reported there. |
| Jameela Jamil | Undisclosed in the article | Showbiz Cheat Sheet, October 30, 2020; no figure reported there. |
| Manny Jacinto | Undisclosed in the article | Showbiz Cheat Sheet, October 30, 2020; no figure reported there. |
| D’Arcy Carden | Undisclosed in the article | Showbiz Cheat Sheet, October 30, 2020; no figure reported there. |
“Undisclosed” here means the 2020 roundup did not give an estimate; it does not establish that no other estimate has been published. The reported values also cannot support a current, comprehensive ranking of all six performers.

Kristen Bell’s reported salary for the series is a different figure
Parade estimates that Bell earned $125,000 per episode of The Good Place, or about $6.25 million over the series’ run, while noting that later-season raises could make the total higher. These are reported salary estimates, not a confirmed payment record. Salary from one show is income, whereas net worth is an estimate of assets minus liabilities; taxes, expenses, investments, other income, and obligations all affect how much earnings contribute to wealth. The salary estimate should not be added to or substituted for Bell’s net-worth estimate.

The cited coverage presents estimates rather than audited accounts or figures confirmed by the actors or their representatives. It does not disclose a complete calculation or a verified balance sheet. Treat the amounts as dated estimates from named third-party sources, not as precise measures of what any performer currently owns.
For series context, NBC’s show archive includes season-four materials and a finale clip dated January 31, 2020. Its Tahani character page identifies Jameela Jamil in the role. Neither establishes any cast member’s wealth.
