How Does Sterling K. Brown Make Money?
Sterling makes money predominantly from his acting career. The Missouri native made his acting debut in 2002 and has been snagging unforgettable roles ever since.
From 2007 to 2013, Sterling starred in Army Wives as Roland Burton. But perhaps his biggest year by far was 2016 when he portrayed Christopher Darden in The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story. The role led him to win the Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Limited Series or Movie.
Also in 2016, Sterling made his debut as Randall Pearson in This Is Us. The following year, he earned the Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series for the captivating role, as well as the Golden Globe for Best Actor in a Television Series – Drama and the SAG Award for Outstanding Actor in a Drama Series.
This Is Us came to an end in 2022 after six successful seasons on NBC. Over the years, the American Fiction actor has spoken out about the impact the drama series had on fans all over the world.
“I’ve had a woman come up to me one time who had a child strapped to her chest, she’s walking around,” the Black Panther actor said during an appearance on Today in January 2022. “She saw me. And she goes, ‘I adopted this baby because of you.’ And she goes, ‘Not you, but your character.’”
Overall, he’s happy that the message of This Is Us was loud and clear for viewers watching the Pearson family at home each week.
“It affects people in a really profound way and it’s nice for us because we’re in a bubble shooting it and then we go out into the world and we see how it affects people and it’s like, ‘Ah, we’re doing something that means something to other people,’” Sterling reflected.
Sterling K. Brown Landed ‘Paradise’ on Hulu
After This Is Us, fans were eager to see what Sterling was going to do next. The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel alum landed the show Paradise on Hulu, which premiered on the streaming platform in January 2025. It was announced that Paradise was renewed for season 2 in February 2025.
Paradise was created by This Is Us showrunner Dan Fogelman, who revealed that he hopes to see the show go on for three seasons.
“I have a plan for three seasons of the show. Without giving away too much, each season of the show is a slightly different show, within the same show with the same characters,” he told The Hollywood Reporter in January 2025. “The pilot reveals something at the end, and then there’s twists and turns in the course of the season. Then the seventh episode is kind of a standout, standalone episode of the show. As we go into second season, we pivot a little bit, but in a way that I think is very follow-able. But yes, there’s big moves ahead.”
