Among the principal actors in HBO’s The Last of Us, Pedro Pascal has the highest published estimate in the sources cited here: $10 million. That is an entertainment-media estimate, not a verified statement of his finances. The figures below are estimates published at different times and using different attributions, so this is a ranking of reported amounts—not a definitive accounting of the cast’s wealth.
How this ranking is scoped
This list focuses on performers in the television series, not everyone involved in the game franchise or the wider production. It includes the principal cast and other actors for whom the cited coverage supplies a figure. The series has a broader, changing ensemble; IMDb’s cast listing identifies, among others, Pedro Pascal as Joel, Bella Ramsey as Ellie and Gabriel Luna as Tommy.

All amounts are estimates reported by entertainment publications. They are not audited disclosures, and the sources do not establish a common method for calculating personal wealth. The order therefore reflects the highest specific published amount or range shown below, not a reliable measure of who is actually wealthier.
The Last of Us cast ranked by published net-worth estimates
| Rank | Actor | Published estimate | Source and date | What the source says |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Pedro Pascal | $10 million | Life & Style, April 7, 2023 | Attributes the estimate to Celebrity Net Worth. |
| 2 | Anna Torv | $6 million | Life & Style, April 7, 2023 | Attributes the estimate to Celebrity Net Worth. |
| 3 | Melanie Lynskey | $5 million | Just Jared, September 14, 2025 | Estimate reported in one installment of a multi-page cast list. |
| 4 | Gabriel Luna | $4 million–$5 million; another source gives $4.5 million | Life & Style, April 7, 2023; Just Jared, September 14, 2025 | Life & Style attributes the range to multiple outlets; Just Jared lists $4.5 million. These are separate estimates, not a single updated calculation. |
| 5 | John Hannah | $4 million | Just Jared, September 14, 2025 | Estimate reported in one installment of a multi-page cast list. |
| 5 | Josh Brener | $4 million | Just Jared, September 14, 2025 | Estimate reported in one installment of a multi-page cast list. |
| 7 | Merle Dandridge | $1 million–$2 million | Life & Style, April 7, 2023 | The publication describes the estimate as unclear and says some outlets report it. |
| 8 | Lamar Johnson | $250,000 | Life & Style, April 7, 2023 | The passage does not name a specific publisher for this estimate. |
| 9 | Nico Parker | $50,000 | Life & Style, April 7, 2023 | Cites multiple outlets but does not name them in the passage. |
| 10 | Bella Ramsey | $2 million | Life & Style, April 7, 2023 | Attributes the estimate to Celebrity Net Worth. |
Because the available sources do not provide a complete, consistently measured dataset, this table should not be read as a definitive full-cast order. Just Jared’s cited September 2025 page is one installment of a multi-page list, not evidence of the entire ranking. In particular, Bella Ramsey’s published $2 million estimate falls below some other listed estimates, despite their placement and roles in the series; the amounts are ordered numerically where comparable, and dated figures from different publications may not reflect the same basis.

Why the estimates are difficult to compare
“Net worth” estimates are not equivalent to disclosed salaries or a public financial statement. The coverage names Celebrity Net Worth as the source for Pascal’s, Ramsey’s and Torv’s figures, but offers less specific attribution for several other amounts. The 2023 Life & Style estimates and 2025 Just Jared estimates also come from separate publications and dates; neither article establishes that all entries were calculated the same way.
Gabriel Luna illustrates the uncertainty: Life & Style reports a $4 million–$5 million range, while Just Jared gives $4.5 million. The latter sits inside the former range, but that does not validate either figure or show that one is a later, more accurate calculation.
Reported episode pay is not net worth
Life & Style also reported estimates of $600,000 per episode for Pascal and $70,000 per episode for Ramsey. The publication said neither actor had publicly confirmed their The Last of Us compensation; it described Ramsey’s figure as coming from various reports on social media. These are unconfirmed pay claims, separate from the net-worth estimates above, and do not establish either actor’s current wealth.

HBO describes the series as based on the acclaimed video game developed by Naughty Dog for PlayStation platforms in its press announcement. That connection explains the story’s source material; it provides no evidence about the cast’s personal finances.
