Jon Peters Wiki, Biography

Pamela Anderson’s former partner, Jon Peters, has decided to leave her $10 million in his will. According to CelebrityNetWorth, Peters’ net worth is estimated to be around $300 million.

In a recent interview with Variety, Peters stated that he will always love Anderson and revealed that she doesn’t know that he left her $10 million. He continued:

“I’m just saying it for the first time with you. I probably shouldn’t be saying it. So that’s for her, whether she needs it or not.”

Anderson and Peters first met in Los Angeles in the ’80s, when the former was just 19 years old. In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter in 2017, Peters said that she was smart and talented and tried to convince her to focus on a serious career instead of working for Playboy. Despite that, Anderson appeared on 13 covers of the magazine.

The two tied the knot in January 2020 in a private ceremony but split the following month. They clarified that it was not a legal marriage. It also marked Anderson’s fourth marriage after her marriages to Tommy Lee, Kid Rock, and Rick Salomon in the past.

Jon Peters has gained a lot from his career as a film producer.

Jon Peters worked as a hairdresser from the age of 14 and it was his relationship with Barbra Streisand that ultimately helped him become a film producer.

Peters managed to become the owner of different properties, after which he sold a mansion in Beverly Hills for $10.5 million in 2002. He sold another mansion in Beverly Park for $12 million in 2009, and his current residence is in Santa Barbara, California.

The 77-year-old collaborated with film producer Peter Guber and became a director at Sony Pictures for two years. However, the films they produced failed to be successful at the box office, leading Sony to lose around $3 billion. They left the company in the mid-1990s and received a severance package of between $30 million and $50 million.

After leaving Sony, Jon Peters bought the film rights to the Superman franchise. There was a time when they hired Nicolas Cage to play the part, but things didn’t work out. Peters then produced Superman Returns, which featured Brandon Routh in the title role. Although a sequel was planned, it was later canceled by Warner Bros.

Peters was also the executive producer of Man of Steel, where Henry Cavill made his debut as Superman. Man of Steel made over $600 million at the box office despite receiving mixed reviews.

Jon Peters produced the 1976 musical romantic drama film A Star Is Born and the 2018 adaptation of the same name. He has produced several other movies including The Main Event, Batman, Tango & Cash, Money Train, Wild Wild West, The Witches of Eastwick, and more.
