Even today, actress Kristin Davis is probably best known for her portrayal of Charlotte York (later Goldenblatt) in the hit HBO series Sex and the City.
The actress went on to play the role throughout the show’s six seasons and two follow-up Sex and the City films (although they never intended to do these movies when they wrapped up the series).
Most recently, Davis played Charlotte once more in the recently released Max mini-series And Just Like That… (everyone came back, with the exception of Kim Cattrall).
Yet outside of the Sex and the City franchise, Davis has been busy with a number of other films and series projects. In fact, the actress didn’t stop taking roles after the show ended in 2004.
In recent years, she’s taken on several movie projects which have only added to the actress' already impressive net worth.
Soon After ‘Sex And The City’ Ended, Kristin Davis Took On A Lot Of Film Work
After her time on Sex and City, Davis agreed to several film roles, starting with one in the Disney film The Shaggy Dog with Tim Allen. For the actress, the project had been quite unexpected.After all, she never thought that Disney would ever come calling.
“Never, never did I think I would be in a Disney movie,” Davis told Movie Web. “I was shocked when they offered me this movie. I think it was the first part that I had gotten after the show.”
Soon after, Davis starred in Robert Rodriguez’s family adventure The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl 3-D, which stars a young Taylor Lautner as one of the titular characters. In the film, Davis plays a mom whose son (Cayden Boyd) gets recruited by his imaginary friends to help save their planet.
For the actress, the film made for the perfect project since she’s always wanted to work with Rodriguez. “I would have said yes to anything that Robert would ever ask me to do because all actors know about Robert and respect Robert and know his creativity and that he's a lovely person,” Davis told Radio Free Entertainment.
Davis also went on to star in films such as Soccer Moms, Deck the Halls, Couples Retreat, and Journey 2: The Mysterious Island with Dwayne Johnson. She did all these film projects in between the two Sex and the City movies.
Later On, Kristin Davis Returned To Television
Amidst her constant movie projects, Davis eventually found a TV project that was perfect for her. It was the comedy series Bad Teacher which centers on a woman (played by Ari Graynor) who decides to become a teacher to find an ideal man for herself. Davis was cast to play Ginny, one of Graynor’s fellow teachers.
For Graynor, there was no better castmate to have than Davis. “I love Kristin. She is such a sweetheart, and such a support,” Graynor told Collider.
“This was all new for me. This is the first time I’ve done a series, and she’s had so much experience. She was really wonderful with advice and being there.” Bad Teacher was canceled after one season.
Eventually, Kristin Davis Made Her Way To Netflix Too
As she continued to pursue more film roles, Davis decided to star in Netflix’s holiday film Holiday in the Wild alongside Rob Lowe. The two actors haven’t worked together again since they starred together in the '90s miniseries Atomic Train. For Lowe, this was the perfect opportunity to work together again.
“When I knew it was her, I was like, ‘I’m in! I love her!’” the actor told Collider. Davis remarked, “It’s such a joy, in our business, that it’s such a small world that sometimes you do get to reunite with the people that you would like to reunite with. It’s wonderful.”
At the same time, Davis made (sort of) a cameo in Netflix’s other holiday film, The Knight Before Christmas. That’s because a scene from Holiday in the Wild was cleverly featured in the film.
Davis also stars in the drama-thriller Deadly Illusions, which is streaming on Netflix.
Here’s Kristin Davis’ Net Worth Today
Estimates indicate that Davis is now worth anywhere between $30 to $35 million. Over the years, the actress has added some impressive properties to her real estate portfolio, including a five-bedroom property in Brentwood that she reportedly purchased for $5.289 million. However, the actress has since listed the property for $3.3 million in 2019.
At the same time, it’s safe to say that she accumulated a lot of her earnings from her time in Sex and the City.
Reports indicate that the actress was paid $350,000 per episode during her time on the show.
Later on, Davis reportedly received $3 million and $4 million for the first and second Sex and City movies, respectively.
It is believed she is earning at least $1 million per episode for her starring role in And Just Like That.
