Leelee Sobieski Net Worth $3 million
Sobieski was born into a family familiar with Hollywood, as her mother is a producer and her father was an actor. She attended Trevor Day School and after matriculating went to Brown University, graduating with a degree in literature and fine art.
Her acting career started when she was scouted as a potential candidate for “Interview with the Vampire”. The role was, however, given to Kirsten Dunst, and so one of her first appearances would be in the television movie “Reunion”. She then appeared in the film “Jungle 2 Jungle” alongside Tim Allen and Martin Short. Sobieski would gain recognition after becoming part of the hit movie “Deep Impact”, which would lead to more opportunities for her. She was then cast in “A Soldier’s Daughter Never Cries” which was critically acclaimed and got her a Young Artist Award nomination. In 1999, she became part of the supporting cast for “Never Been Kissed”, and was then cast in “Eyes Wide Shut”, which had good reviews but also had a lot of controversy due to the nature of the film’s sex scenes. In the same year she was cast in “Joan of Arc”, and this performance earned her several nominations – she became the youngest actress to ever portray Joan of Arc in a movie. Her net worth benefited considerably.
In 2001, Leelee was cast in the horror film “Joy Ride” alongside Paul Walker, and it received good reviews, and then appeared in “The Glass House” which didn’t do well at the box office. She redeemed her reputation in “My First Mister” which got great reviews despite its low budget. She continued her work on television, becoming a part of “Les Liasons Dangereuses” and “Hercules”. In 2006, she appeared in “The Wicker Man” alongside Nicolas Cage but the movie didn’t do well at the box office or among critics. After making a few more independent films, Sobieski was cast in “88 Minutes” which starred Al Pacino, a minor box office success but failing critically. In 2008, she became a part of “In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale” which was rated one of the worst films of the year; she received a Razzle Award nomination for Worst Supporting Actress. The following year, she appeared in “Public Enemies”, and one of her latest projects is “The Good Wife” in which she made a guest appearance.
For her personal life it is known that, Sobieski was married to Matthew Davis(2008-09) and has been married to fashion designer Adam Kimmel since 2010, with whom she has two children. She also speaks fluent French and credits learning the language to her father who lives in France. In 2012, Sobieski moved away from acting projects to focus on being a mom and in 2016, it was reported that she had no current interest in returning to acting.
