Gary Busey

Gary Busey is one of the most known character actors in Hollywood. He has over 150 film credits to his name, like Lethal WeaponPredator 2Point Break, and Under Siege, among others. For portraying Buddy Holly in the story of Buddy Holly (1978), Busey was nominated for Best Actor Oscar and won the Best Actor Award from the American Film Critics Association. It is too many to mention and will eat up a chunk of space here.

With these feats, it may be safe to assume the 76-year-old star is already a successful actor who may have a fat bank account, but it is never the case. After getting into a mishap in the late 1980s, it dramatically affected his net worth. He filed for bankruptcy in 2012, having a debt of around $500,000, varying from unpaid taxes to bills. Anyhow, Busey continuously works hard and still lands some roles that help him to make ends meet.
