Over the course of her career, Diane Lane has earned a net worth of around $40 million according to Celebrity Net Worth. That's not bad for someone who never really realized that acting had become their job. "I love working, I really do. And I think I've gotten better at it; I've learned to find the wind," she told Esquire in 2000. "But I've also learned some perspective." Lane says that she never wished she was a superstar or an actress, "but you look up and you're thirty-five and you've been doing this for twenty-some years," she explained. "It's all I know."
The actress continues to be a familiar face in cinema and on the small screen, with roles in the likes of "Trumbo" with Bryan Cranston as well as "Serenity" alongside Matthew McConaughey and Anne Hathaway. You'll also recognize her in Pixar's "Inside Out", as the voice of Riley's mom.
"You know, it's a good time to be a woman of a certain age," she told the Herald, referring to her latest roles. "Women are allowed opportunities to have narratives that are beyond the ingenue. It's great. I think that on the large screen we're back."
