Net Worth and Salary

Eliza Dushku’s net worth is estimated to be around $10 million as of 2025. This impressive figure is attributed to her successful acting career, voice work in various video games, and participation in producing television projects. With a blend of diverse roles and continued work in the industry, it’s likely her net worth may continue to increase in the coming years.

In January 2019, CBS made a $9.5 million settlement with Dushku after she was fired from a recurring role on Bull, after informing producers of series lead Michael Weatherly's alleged inappropriate behavior on the set.

According to documents from the official mediation, Weatherly was recorded on video making comments about spanking Dushku over his knee, soliciting a threesome, alluding to sexual assault in his "rape van", and other harassing statements.

After Dushku spoke with the producers, Weatherly texted CBS Television Studios' president David Stapf saying he wanted to talk about Dushku's sense of humor, though Stapf pushed back saying "Ms.

Dushku made the show better." Days later, showrunner Glenn Gordon Caron terminated Dushku's expected role on the show, despite opposition from studio executives.

The settlement amount was calculated to compensate Dushku for her loss of earnings from her planned promotion to a series regular, with "well-developed plans" set to make her a regular cast member following her three-episode guest appearance. In December 2018, when the settlement was reported, Weatherly publicly apologized for the comments.

Dushku responded that Weatherly broke the terms of their settlement by speaking to the press and characterized his apology as "more deflection, denial, and spin". In November 2021, Dushku testified in front of the House Judiciary Committee about her sexual harassment accusations during her time on Bull.
