While Christopher Mintz-Plasse's exact net worth is unknown, Celebrity Net Worth is currently claiming the actor is sitting on a $12 million nest egg. And it's safe to assume that (unless his manager worked some posh backend deal) most of Mintz-Plasse's fortune was actually earned after his Superbad appearance. You may not know it, but Superbad was actually the then 17-year-old actor's first screen appearance. As such, his price tag was almost certainly low even for such a prominent role.
And as mentioned, Mintz-Plasse really has been busier than you think since his 2007 breakout (via IMDb). He's gone on to appear alongside his Superbad co-star Michael Cera and Jack Black in Year One, trading lines with Paul Rudd and Sean William Scott in Role Models, lending his voice to Dreamworks' animated smash How to Train Your Dragon, auditioning the would-be songbirds of Pitch Perfect, and re-teaming with Superbad scribe Seth Rogen for another raunchy romp in Neighbors. He even played a version of himself in 2013's marvelously meta comedy This is the End (along with a veritable who's-who of big time comedic talent).
And if there's one role we're sincerely hoping the actor got paid handsomely for, arguably Christopher Mintz-Plasse's most recognizable post-McLovin role, it's as Kick-Ass' burgeoning big bad Chris D'Amico (aka Red Mist). Because neither that film or it's sequel would've worked quite as well without him — even if some might argue the sequel didn't work at all.
Hits and misses aside, Christopher Mintz-Plasse has undoubtedly become one of the more singular presences in Hollywood over the years. And even if he never fully shakes McLovin from his life, it's nice to know he's still getting by just fine.
