Tommy Wiseau is an actor/film writer who has tried his hand in television as well. He was born on October 3, 1955, in Poznań, Poland. Wiseau always had a passion for making movies and that lead him to create his first/most popular feature film The Room. The Room received mixed reviews to say the least, but it has remained in the main stream news for years after its release. In fact, Seth Rogen and James Franco are coming out with The Disaster Artist which is a movie based off all the trials and tribulations of the behind the scenes efforts that went into creating this captivating film.

Tommy Wiseau’s Net Worth as of 2019: $500 Thousand

Tommy Wiseau creator/star of The Room is worth an estimated $500 thousand. Wiseau, who funded production of The Room himself, has never been clear about where his fortune came from, something that is mentioned in the upcoming film The Disaster Artist.

2003-2004

The Room was released 2003 and it is widely considered the worst movie ever made. That’s not something you usually want your name attached too but The Room has actually developed a huge following around the world. Wiseau still stands by the fact that this film is just misunderstood and is unfairly considered a “bad” movie.
Fun Fact: While Wiseau said that he got the funding for The Room by importing and selling leather jackets from South Korea, some crew members of The Room said that the money came from an organized crime money-laundering scheme, though Wiseau said that is highly unlikely.
In 2004 Tommy wrote, directed and produced ‘Homeless in America’ a film that went deep into the lives of those affected by the homelessness that is affecting America and all those who help them. This film showed a different side of Wiseau and hopefully opened a lot of peoples eyes to this growing problem.
