The richest Ghostbusters cast member is also one of the franchise's key architects. Dan Aykroyd co-wrote the 1984 original and has appeared in four of the five movies as Ray Stantz, the paranormal true believer whose childhood memory famously gives Gozer its marshmallow form. In the 2016 reboot, he had a fleeting cameo as cab driver.

Ghostbusters made Aykroyd a fortune, with his earnings for the first two films matching Murray's at $125 million (£93.9m) before inflation. But aside from acting and writing, Aykroyd's immense wealth also comes from producing credits and business ventures, including the House of Blues chain and Crystal Head Vodka.
