Age is just a number, and Owen Cooper is proving this in every manner with his masterclass, Emmy-winning performance, which brought him a Golden Globe Award at the age of 16. Owen played the role of 'Jamie Miller' in the Netflix series and has been in talks ever since. He did what he needed to do, and with such an authenticity that brought him an Emmy Award last year.

Owen, being the youngest one to have his hands on the Emmy Award, made history, and with his Golden Globe win, people have again started to be in absolute awe of the teen actor. Amid Owen being in the talks again, let's have a look at his massive net worth, which he reportedly built at the age of 16. Along with this, we will also see how much he was paid for his role in Adolescence.

Adolescence star Owen Cooper's salary from the series and his massive net worth revealed

Owen Cooper doesn't come from a family of actors, but his interest in acting began at a very young age, as if he had always known his purpose. However,  at a young age, he began taking acting lessons at a Manchester-based Drama school, The Drama Mob, and while taking lessons, he perfectly trained himself to perform on stage, hone his acting skills. While not confirmed, Celebrity Net Worth, back in September 2025, estimated Owen Cooper's net worth to be around USD 500,000 to USD 750,000.

The primary source of his income is surely acting, and his alleged massive earnings from the Netflix series, Adolescence. While Netflix never released the actual salary that the stars were paid on the series, as per Variety, actors of similar series are often paid USD 20K to USD 50K per episode.

Given that Adolescence had six episodes, it was reported that Owen might have earned between USD 120,000 and USD 300,000, excluding any bonuses or so. This is an estimated budget and is based on the data provided on the public platform. It is possible that Owen Cooper's net worth jumped up, given that he was also seen in Film Club, and is all set to be seen as 'Young Heathcliff' in Emerald Fennell's upcoming Wuthering Heights.

How did Owen Cooper bag the role in Adolescence?

'Jamie Miller's role in the Netflix series needed authenticity, as it portrayed a 13-year-old boy who was accused of the murder of a teenage girl and was arrested for the same. The audition was held in the UK, and a lot of people auditioned for the role, Owen being one of them, who, back then, was taking weekly acting training.

Well, as he auditioned, he grabbed the attention instantly, without trying to focus more on his experience, but rather he came up with what was needed the most, the authenticity, as shared by casting director Shaheen Baig. Talking about his win at the Emmys, Owen said that he was nothing three years back, and as he stepped out of his comfort zone, he knows now that anything could be achieved, if there's the right amount of willpower and work in action.
