Ryan Phillippe is an American actor and producer who has a net worth of $30 million. His first acting role was on the ABC soap opera "One Life to Live" (1992–1993), portraying daytime television's first gay teenager, Billy Douglas. Phillippe's portrayal of Barry William Cox in the hit slasher movie "I Know What You Did Last Summer" (1997) was a turning point in his career.

He had a string of hits in the 1990s, notably "54" (1998) and "Cruel Intentions" (1999). During this period, he also met and married actress Reese Witherspoon. It looked like the sky was the limit. Shoot ahead ten years, and things were no longer so rosy. His marriage had dissolved, and the type of roles that he had enjoyed for much of his early career were becoming few and far between. For every high-profile project, there were two or three straight-to-video, or poorly reviewed/barely seen vehicles, and between 2008 and 2010, he disappeared altogether. However, since 2010, he has begun to rebuild his Hollywood profile, and critically acclaimed performances in such projects as "MacGruber," "The Bang Bang Club," "The Lincoln Lawyer," and a guest starring turn on "Damages." Ryan made his directorial debut with 2014's "Catch Hell," also serving as a co-writer, co-producer, and actor, and he was a series regular on ABC's "Secrets and Lies" (2015) and the USA network's "Shooter" (2016–2018). Today, Phillippe is still a bright star with a consistently full acting schedule, both on film and television.
