Michael Gambon (80) – £10.7 Million
Laurence Olivier trained Sir Michael John Gambon, and appearances at the Royal National Theatre started his career. He is now best known for his role in the series of Harry Potter films as Professor Albus Dumbledore. For his services to drama, he was appointed a Knight in 1998. The Irish Times ranked him on the 28th spot in their 2020 list of the nation’s greatest actors.
Memory loss issues forced him to quit his stage career in 2015, but he continues taking screen roles. Most recently, we saw him in the 2019 film Cordelia. Gambon has three children, and his son Fergus appeared on Antiques Roadshow as a ceramic expert.
