Linda Hunt's role as Hetty in NCIS: LA has significantly contributed to her $12 million net worth. Hunt's Aries leadership traits shine through in her iconic character, who is a pilot, author, and Olympian. Despite her short stature, Hunt's talents are huge and she even won an Oscar early in her career.

Linda Hunt is an actor who's been in the business for over 40 years, but it's likely her late-career role as Operations Manager Henrietta "Hetty" Lange in NCIS: Los Angeles that is most responsible for her sizable net worth. Hunt made her film debut in 1980's Popeye opposite Robin Williams, where she played Mrs. Oxheart. Just two years later, Hunt was taking home the Best Supporting Actress Academy Award for her role as Billy Kwan in The Year of Living Dangerously. Hunt continued acting steadily over the decades, and in 2009 was cast in her most famous role, Hetty Lange.
