Few people wear the title of “it-girl” better than Julia Fox. No matter what she’s doing, people are talking about her. Whether it’s for her outlandish fashions, viral TikToks or stellar acting performances, Fox has a keen sense of how to keep her name on everyone’s lips.
The most recent chatter surrounding the Uncut Gems star stems from two films at the 2025 Tribeca Festival with both The Trainer and Fior Di Latte premiering. Earlier in 2025 Fox also starred in Steven Soderbergh’s horror movie Presence. Starring alongside Lucy Liu and Chris Sullivan, Fox revealed that signing on to the movie was a no-brainer, admitting at a Q&A that she, “Hadn’t even read the script, to be honest. But when Steven calls, I trust him blindly. So, here we are.”

As Fox hits the Tribeca Festival red carpets, lets take a look back at her career and all the projects that helped her build her killer net worth.
Although rumors once speculated that the model-turned-actress was worth around $30M, Fox took to TikTok in January of 2023 to refute those claims. “I just want you guys to know that like, first of all, I’m not worth $30 million. Not even close,” she started, “And second of all, I don’t give a f**k because I don’t need $30 million. What does one person need $30 million for? I’ve survived on a lot less and I’m doing just fine. And also it’s really not that deep.” According to Celebrity Net Worth, Julia is sitting somewhere closer to $1 million which is still a hefty chunk of change, and she seems to be quite happy with that amount (as would most people).
How did Julia Fox become famous?
Julia Fox has had many jobs and has held many titles, from fashion designer and model to actress and author. Starting a women’s clothing brand called Franziska Fox in 2015, Julia charged her way into the fashion world creating garments and taking modeling them. Her star continued to rise as she booked higher profile gigs, landing deals with some of the biggest names in fashion.
For a time, Fox lived a lavish party lifestyle and is well known in those communities, even inspiring London’s premiere party girl Charli XCX to reference her in her hit song “360” singing, “I'm everywhere, I'm so Julia.” Her connections eventually led her to the world of acting when her friends Josh and Benny Safdie wrote a part for her in the critically acclaimed 2019 movie Uncut Gems. If her highly praised performance wasn’t enough, she also had a series of incredibly viral social media moments, the most famous of which being her exaggerated pronunciation of “Uncut Gems." From there, she continued to become an inescapable force that demands one’s attention whether you like it or not.

In the early days of her career, Fox worked as a model, climbing her way up the rungs of notoriety. She appeared in campaigns for high-profile companies like Tiffany, Diesel and Supreme, eventually landing in the editorial pages of well-known magazines such as Vogue, V and Paper. Known for her sometimes “out there” style, Fox told Vogue in 2021 that working in fashion changed her perspective. “When I was working in the fashion industry, I used to be really into clothes and really into my outfits. Every day I wore something crazy, like a tutu and platforms,” she said. “Then after I worked in fashion, I got so disenchanted because of all the work that goes into it and all the stuff behind the scenes that makes it so unglamorous. Then I toned it down a lot.” Compensation for modeling is pretty all over the board, ranging from $20 an hour to $20,000 for an overseas shoot. One of the most important factors is the model’s experience and profile, and as Julia’s star continued to rise, it’s logical to presume that so too did her modeling rate.
How much did Julia Fox make from Uncut Gems?
The high-intensity crime thriller, Uncut Gems, undoubtedly put Julia Fox on the map as a full-blown star. Starring alongside Adam Sandler, Fox took on a role that was literally made for her, seeing as the directors and co-writers Josh and Benny Safdie wrote the character of “Julia” with Fox in mind. And even though it seems like playing a character who is essentially based on you would be easy, the actor sat down with Ellein 2019, revealing she had some hesitations with acting. “I wasn't even sure I could play this role,” she began. “I remember being like, Okay, I conned them into thinking I can do this, but can I actually? I have that imposter syndrome. Am I worthy, am I going to get to set and not know how to act? But Josh had faith in me, and that's all I really needed.” That faith took her a long way because her role in the movie garnered her a lot of attention and even earned her a Gotham Awards nomination for Breakthrough Actor. Although the amount Julia received for the film is not public, the film was a critical and box office success, making $50M off of a $19M budget.

Following her breakout role in Uncut Gems, Fox took on top billing in the erotic drama PVT Chat. The story follows a New York online gambler (Peter Vack) whose obsession with an internet cam gir (Fox) moves from virtual reality into the real world. Although the film had a somewhat unceremonious release, many hail this work as some of Julia’s best. Collider wrote, “Julia Fox steals the show and completely makes it her picture.” And the film’s director Ben Hozie was quoted saying, “If the movie works at all it is 95 percent due to Julia and Peter and the energy between them.” The film’s budget and the star’s salaries have not been made public, but Fox’s performance could very well have helped her negotiate higher pay rates in projects that followed.
How much did Julia Fox make from No Sudden Move?
Proving that she has what it takes to play in the big leagues, Julia joined heavy hitters like Don Cheadle, Kieran Culkin, Brendan Fraser and Jon Hamm in Steven Soderbergh's No Sudden Move. In the 1950s crime drama, Fox takes on a role she felt she was born to play, telling Vogue, “I always tend to go toward a more bombshell, classic-Hollywood type of vibe because I feel like it fits me really well.” And she doesn’t think this will be the last time, continuing by saying, “I wouldn’t be surprised if I were to get cast as a 1950s Hollywood type of person in other projects. It just works.” Why mess with perfection? We don’t know how much Julia or anybody from the cast made for this HBO Max-exclusive movie, but it showed the world she is an actor who deserves people’s attention.
In 2021, Fox wrote, directed, and produced her first short film called Fantasy Girls. The film follows a group of teenage girls in Reno, Nevada who fall into sex work, a story that was inspired by a trip that Julia took with her childhood best friend. In an interview with Elle, she revealed the real-life inspiration for the story, saying, “We enter the city and meet this group of kids on the side of the road, and we just both knew, we're going to uncover this story in this little mix…. We were informed [that] the whole town is an underground prostitution ring. So many children are being trafficked and girls go missing all the time, and they were at risk. I was like, I want to tell this story in an artful way.” Having a history with sex work herself, the story was important to her and a turning point in her career, telling Elle, “After trying so many things, I finally found what my calling is. I want to use my platform to highlight and shed light on issues that are dear to me.” There isn’t much information on how much money the short film may have made, but it seems telling this story was fulfillment enough for this now-multihyphenate.
How much did Julia Fox make off of her memoir, Down the Drain?
In 2023, Fox released her jaw-dropping memoir, Down the Drain, where she recounts tales of the fashion world, exes, sex work and addiction. She told The New York Timesthat while she was writing the book for catharsis, there was a deeper hope for the publication of the book. “It was really important to be honest and vulnerable," she said. “My hope now would be that someone reads it and thinks: ‘She went through this and look at her now. I can get over anything.’” Fox’s memoir landed her on The New York Times Best Seller list, and while many factors go into how much an author receives from book sales, it’s reasonable to assume that Julia made hundreds of thousands of dollars from the book considering her celebrity status and high profile. The book received so much attention that it’s being developed into a into a TV series helmed by Transparent’s Joey Soloway.
Julia’s career began in fashion, cofounding a line of knitwear with her friend Briana Andalore. The line was called Franziska Fox, and Julia described it to Into the Glossas “Really strong and confident—confident but comfortable. [The Franziska Fox woman] is not trying too hard, she’s just doing it. When talking with Vogue, she credits her formative years living in Milan as the inspiration for her fashion. “I went there a little punk girl wearing ripped Converse and ripped jeans and punk band T-shirts and big earrings and floppy jewelry. It was a culture shock,” she said. “I really learned about fashion there. When I came back, I was wearing peacoats and Chelsea boots and coordinating my outfit and matching my scarves to my belts.”
How much does Julia Fox make for appearances?
In an interview with The New York Times, Fox confirmed that she has a $20,000 minimum to make an appearance at a brand event, though she did admit she’ll lower her price for the ideal conditions. “If I love the brand, I’ll go for a $5,000 store credit,” she revealed, and that she’d only “go to events for free if it’s for my friends or designers who I look up to — or I know that they don’t have a lot of money and this exposure could mean a lot to them.” $20,000 for a night out on the town doesn’t sound too bad!
