Curran Walters net worth
As of mid 2020, Curran Walters net worth is estimated to be over $1 million, earned through a successful career in the acting profession.
He has earned significant salaries from “Titans”, although he has also worked on various other TV shows during his career.
Youth, education and early career
Curran grew up alongside a younger sister in Oak Park and attended Oak Park High School, one of California’s most distinguished high schools. In high school, he aspired to a career in the entertainment industry, and after graduation he began a career as a model, working for several fashion brands, including Lee and Tillys, which is a retail company at the California-based clothing retailer.
While working as a model, he also gained his first acting opportunities, in commercials, appearing for the first time for Samsung Galaxy smartphones.
He then appeared in an advertisement for the “NBA 2K15” video game, which is the 2015 edition of the popular “NBA 2K” franchise. His work there motivated him to pursue more acting endeavors, and he eventually gave up his modeling career, preferring to find success as an actor. One of his first professional projects was in the TV movie “Rising and Falling”, in which he played the character of Chad.
Transition to acting
More opportunities opened up for Walters, and he guest-starred on “Speechless,” “New Girl,” and a two-episode special for “Girl Meets World.” In 2016, he got his first recurring role in the television series “Game of Silence”, playing a younger version of the Jackson Brooks character.
The show is an American adaptation of the Turkish series “Suskunlar”, which tells the story of children sentenced to nine years in prison after stealing a dessert in 1997; the show is based on real events.
The same year, he made his film debut in “20th Century Women”, alongside Elle Fanning, Annette Bening and Greta Gerwig. Subsequently, he was cast in one of his first major roles, as one of the main characters in “Too Close to Home”, which aired on TLC for two seasons. It follows the story of a woman who becomes embroiled in an affair with the US President, leading to her becoming the center of a major political scandal.
She then returns home in hopes of escaping the large-scale problem.
Titans
In 2018, Curran was cast in his biggest role yet, in the web series “Titans” portraying Jason Todd, one of the people who took on the character of Robin before later becoming known for his alias, Red. Hood. Other stars of the series include Anna Diop, Brenton Thwaites, Teagan Croft and Ryan Potter. The series was originally slated to be filmed for TNT, but was in development hell for a few years before it was announced that the project was to be redeveloped with support from DC Universe.
The cast members were signed in 2017, which led to filming and release the following year.
The show begins after the Titans split up, but is about to reunite. Together they begin to thwart crimes in San Francisco, with each member having their own unique set of abilities. More members would join the newly formed Titans, but things start to get complicated when one of their members – Rachel, otherwise known as Raven – becomes the target of her demon father. The show was very successful in its first season leading into a second season, in which the now officially reformed Titans must face an old enemy, the assassin Deathstroke.
recent projects
Walters’ work in “Titans” has elevated his career considerably, and although most of his time is spent on the show, he’s still able to do other projects. He made an appearance on the show “Fam”, a sitcom broadcast on CBS, and worked alongside Nina Dobrev and Tone Bell. He also reprized his role as Jason Todd, making appearances on the shows “Supergirl” and “Legends of Tomorrow.” He appeared as one of many characters in the wider DC Universe for the Crisis on Infinite Earths special, which marked a crossover of many series.
However, since the special was mostly driven by shows from The CW’s Arrowverse, many characters, including him, were left uncredited.
In addition to his work on the shows, he’s also set to appear in the movie “Do Not Reply,” which is still in pre-production, delayed due to the worldwide issues with the coronavirus. It was also announced that he had become one of the main cast members of “Titans” – the series received positive reviews, mainly for its darker theme and pacing, which allowed for better character development.
Private life
Curran is single and he hasn’t focused on any public romance as he is still busy developing his fledgling career. He yearns to have a career as big as Leonardo DiCaprio, hoping to find bigger opportunities later, though he’s on board to be with ‘Titans’ for the long haul, and needs to do a lot of research and training for the character.
He was a fan of various superhero characters growing up, though his favorite was Spider-Man. He also likes all the superpowers, because they always have an advantage. He loves playing and wants to continue playing for the foreseeable future.
