Cast Of Shameless: How Much Are They Worth Now?

Source: Showtime

Shameless is one of the few series that was based off a British series to be as well received as the original. The Showtime comedy/drama is extremely unique and stands apart from the many heart-warming family sitcoms that are on TV, as it depicts the very dysfunctional Gallagher family. The series has hit home with fans and has now gone through seven seasons since first premiering in January 2011, and the stars are certainly enjoying being part of such a successful show! Check out how much the talented cast of Shameless is worth now:

13. Justin Chatwin
