Ana de Armas’ Net Worth and Salary Overview

The net worth of Ana de Armas, a Cuban-Spanish actress, is estimated at $20 million. Her career commenced in Cuba before she transitioned to Spain, where she starred in the immensely popular teen drama series, “El Internado.” Among her prominent early roles is the character Carolina Leal Solis on the television series The Boarding School, which aired from 2007 to 2010. Following that, she appeared as Nerea in the TV series Hispania, la leyenda between 2010 and 2011. Her film debut took place in 2006 with Virgin Rose, and she has since featured in several movies, including Madrigal, Sex, Party and Lies, Blind Alley, Faraday, Por un punado de besos, Knock Knock, Anabel, Exposed, Hands of Stone, War Dogs, Overdrive, and Blade Runner 2049. In 2014, Ana de Armas relocated to Los Angeles after her marriage with Marc Clotet from 2011 to 2013. For her role in Blade Runner 2049, she received a nomination for a Saturn Award for Best Supporting Actress in 2018.

Background and Early Life

Born in Havana, Cuba, on April 30, 1988, de Armas was raised by her parents, Ramón and Ana, in the small town of Santa Cruz del Norte. Her father held various positions throughout her childhood, including teacher, principal, bank manager, and deputy mayor, while her mother was employed in human resources at the Ministry of Education. Growing up with her older brother, Javier, she has often shared that her childhood was joyful, despite experiencing challenges like fuel shortages, food rations, and electricity outages in Cuba.

At age 12, after watching Hollywood films in her neighbor’s apartment—since her family did not own a video or DVD player—she realized her passion for acting. By 14, she joined the Havana National Theatre of Cuba and during this period filmed three movies.

Professional Journey

During her time in Cuba, de Armas appeared in films such as “Una rosa de Francia,” “El edén perdido,” and “Madrigal.” While promoting one of these films in Spain, she met Juan Lanja, who eventually became her Spanish agent.

At 18 years old, de Armas decided to move to Madrid to further her acting aspirations. Just two weeks after her arrival, she met casting director Luis San Narciso, who recognized her from “Una Rosa de Francia.” He cast her in the teen drama, “El Internado,” where she portrayed Carolina for six seasons from 2007 to 2010. The show, set in a boarding school, gained immense popularity in Spain, turning her into a household name. Alongside this series, she starred in the coming-of-age comedy “Mentiras y Gordas” in 2009. Nevertheless, due to concerns about being typecast in predominantly teenage roles owing to “El Internado’s” success, she requested to be written out of the series during its second-to-last season.

Seeking to enhance her English skills, de Armas moved to New York City for a few months and later returned to Spain to star in seventeen episodes of the historical drama series “Hispania,” concluding her role in that series later on.

She starred in several films by Antonio Trashorra, such as “El callejón” in 2011 and “Anabel” in 2015, during the year 2011.

Following this time, de Armas faced a brief slowdown in her acting career. She began attending acting workshops at a Madrid theater and subsequently secured a Hollywood agent, who encouraged her to relocate to Los Angeles, a move she made in 2014.

De Armas mentioned that relocating to LA meant she had to rebuild her acting career from the ground up, given her limited English skills and virtually nonexistent name recognition in the United States. Upon her arrival, she dedicated four months to full-time English courses. Her debut role in a Hollywood film came in 2015, where she starred alongside Keanu Reeves in “Knock Knock.” Following that, Reeves invited her to act in the thriller “Exposed,” which he was producing in 2016. That same year, she also appeared in “War Dogs” and “Hands of Stone,” often learning her lines phonetically.

In 2017, de Armas secured a supporting role in “Blade Runner 2049,” earning rave reviews. She was also featured in the action thriller, “Overdrive.” The following year, she took the lead in the medical drama, “Corazón,” which was financed by Montefiore Medical Center to promote organ donation awareness.

De Armas’s major Hollywood breakthrough came in 2019 when she had a leading role in the ensemble cast of “Knives Out.” Her performance garnered significant acclaim from critics. She received a nomination for a Golden Globe Award in the Best Actress category for Motion Picture Comedy or Musical and won the Saturn Award for Best Supporting Actress.

In 2020, de Armas was featured in four films: “The Informer,” “The Night Clerk,” “Sergio,” and “Wasp Network,” all of which received positive reviews for her performances. The following year, she was cast as the latest Bond girl in “No Time to Die,” starring Daniel Craig. In this film, she plays a Cuban CIA agent, a role specifically written with her in mind.

De Armas then took on a role in the erotic thriller “Deep Water,” based on Patricia Highsmith’s novel, co-starring with Ben Affleck. Additionally, she secured the role of Marilyn Monroe in “Blonde,” a biopic derived from Joyce Carol Oates’s novel of the same name, focusing on Monroe’s life.

Personal Life

In mid-2010, she began her relationship with Spanish actor Marc Clotet, marrying him in Costa Brava in July 2011. Their marriage lasted about two years before they divorced in 2013. In early 2015, she started dating talent agent Franklin Latt, and their relationship included a brief engagement until late 2016. At the end of 2019, she met American actor Ben Affleck on the set of “Deep Water,” with their relationship spanning from early 2020 until January 2021.

Real Estate

Ana acquired a 30-acre property in rural Vermont for $7.2 million in November 2022.
