As the 1980s began, John Travolta tried to capitalize on his success. In 1983, he made a sequel to “Saturday Night Fever” called “Staying Alive” that bombed with the critics, but was a box office success, raking in $63 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth.
However, most of the ’80s presented Travolta with box office and critical failures, however, that didn’t mean he was down and out. The actor still made money and launched a 1989 comedy comeback with the commercial success of “Look Who’s Talking,” which earned a whopping $297 million. It was Travolta’s highest grossing film since “Grease,” (via Celebrity Net Worth). When Travolta starred in “Pulp Fiction” – a movie different from anything else he’d ever done – he earned critical and financial success, allowing him to pick and choose movies for years to come. Travolta’s movie money also gave way for real estate investments. Sadly, Travolta lost his wife of 28 years, Kelly Preston, in July 2020 after a long battle with breast cancer. While she was alive, however, the couple invested in various properties, including a home worth $2.65 million in Los Angeles. So between the movie millions and the vast homes, Travolta’s full net worth is $250 million at the time of this writing, according to Celebrity Net Worth.

However, before “Saturday Night Fever,” there was “Welcome Back, Kotter,” where he played another Brooklyn-born character, Vinnie Barbarino. Of course, Travolta didn’t remain a television star for long. In fact, the success of “Saturday Night Fever” meant Travolta would never do a television series again with “Grease” being made into a movie and Travolta had the lead role of Danny Zuko (via Biography). It was still the 1970s and the actor was racking up the roles and the money that went along with them.
