James Haven Voight was born on the 11th May 1973, in Los Angeles, California USA, and is an actor and producer, probably best known for his roles in such movies as “Original Sin” (2001) and “Breaking Dawn” (2004). Haven’s career started in 1998.
Have you ever wondered how rich James Haven is, as of early 2017? According to authoritative sources, it has been estimated that Haven’s net worth is as high as $5 million, an amount earned largely through his successful acting career, but in addition to working as an actor, Haven also works as a producer, which has improved his wealth too.
James Haven is a son of actors Jon Voight and Marcheline Bertrand, and grew up with his sister Angelina Jolie in Palisades, New York, and then in Los Angeles, California. James went to Beverly Hills High School, from where he matriculated in 1991, and later studied at the USC School of Cinema-Television, where he received a George Lucas Award for a student film.
Haven’s acting career began in 1998 when he appeared in Michael Cristofer’s Golden Globe Award-winning TV movie called “Gia”, starring Angelina Jolie, Faye Dunaway, and Elizabeth Mitchell. Also in 1998, James had a minor role in “Hell’s Kitchen” alongside Rosanna Arquette, William Forsythe, and Angelina Jolie, while in 2001, he had a part in “Original Sin” with Antonio Banderas, Angelina Jolie, and Thomas Jane. The fact that the superstar actress Jolie is his sister no doubt helped secured some roles for Haven, and although he was never as successful as his younger sister, he significantly increased his net worth.
In 2001, Haven appeared alongside Billy Bob Thornton, Halle Berry and Taylor Simpson in Marc Forster’s Oscar Award-winning movie called “Monster’s Ball”, while the next year he starred in “Ocean Park”. In 2004, James appeared in an episode of the Golden Globe Award-nominated series “CSI: Crime Scene Investigation”, and then co-starred in the horror film “Breaking Dawn”. In 2006, he had a part in “Stay Alive” with Jon Foster, Samaire Armstrong and Frankie Muniz, while most recently, Haven played in “Deep in the Heart” (2012) starring Jon Gries, Elaine Hendrix, and Val Kilmer.
Haven has also produced documentaries and short films, such as “Trudell” (2005), “That’s Our Mary” (2011), and “Easy Silence” (2014), which helped him to improve his wealth.
Regarding his personal life, James Haven was estranged from his father Jon Voight and even legally dropped his surname, but after his mother died in 2007, they reconciled after six years estrangement. In Angelina Jolie’s Oscar acceptance speech, she stated that she is “in love” with James, which resulted in gossip about incest, but both Haven and Jolie dismissed those claims. James apparently remains single, with no rumours of romantic associations.
