Before landing Schitt's Creek, Annie Murphy was in a tough spot. She revealed on The Kelly Clarkson Show that her bank account was near-empty in 2014. CNBC reported that Murphy had "only $3 in the bank" ahead of playing Alexis.
Murphy clarified to The Lily that she had less than $160 to her name after her apartment burned down during pilot season. "It was like the universe was screaming pretty loudly in my ear, 'This is not the path for you!'" Murphy recalled. "I had come to the very snotty-crying decision that I wasn't going to act any more. And two days later I got the audition for Schitt's Creek."
While it doesn't seem like Murphy has much in common on paper with her role of Alexis, thanks to Schitt's Creek, Murphy reportedly has far more than just a few dollars to her name. The self-made millionaire has a $3 million net worth, per Celebrity Net Worth. That's more than "A Little Bit" rich!
