Eva Longoria's 'John Wick' Investment Earnings - How Much Money She's Made From Funding the Movie Revealed!

Eva Longoria made a great business decision.

The 49-year-old Desperate Housewives actress made a $6 million investment in 2014’s John Wick, she recently confirmed to Business Insider.

As it turns out, Eva quietly closed the movie’s $6 million financing gap less than 24 hours before production would’ve shut down, essentially saving the film.

“That is accurate. By the way, I was in my infancy,” she said while talking about her investment.

“My bankroll was very new, and it was a lot of money, and I was like, ‘So how does it work?’ I had no idea. I would love to say I was an investment genius and I just knew and I calculated my risk. No, none of that. An agent, and he wasn’t even my agent, he called me and said, ‘You got money, you should put your money here,’” she continued.

“And I didn’t even know how a movie was made. I was like, ‘What do you mean gap financing?’ But something that I’ve learned, looking back, I love investing in people. You can tell me you’re opening a chicken farm, but if you’re f-cking passionate about it and you’ve done the work and know the market, I mean, [directors Chad Stahelski and David Leitch] did their work. They put in their 10,000 hours as stunt guys and second unit directors; they had seen all the bad movies and knew how to make a good one. It was that. They were undeniably passionate and I knew they were going to make an undeniable product.”

Eva then confirmed she’s still making money from her investment.

“Yes. What I’m pissed off about is I wasn’t connected to the rest of them. This was a one-time thing. That was the gamble. But that was my only mistake, not being attached to all of the films.”

The franchise has since grossed $1 billion across four movies.

As for the exact amount she’s made, she said: “You know, I would have to check. More than double [$6 million], for sure.”
