Jessica Hynes, a multi-talented individual, has made a significant mark in the entertainment industry in the United Kingdom. Known for her prowess as an actress, writer, and producer, Hynes has garnered both critical acclaim and commercial success throughout her career. Her impressive achievements have undoubtedly contributed to her remarkable net worth, which is estimated to reach an astounding $18 million by 2024. With her undeniable talent and versatility, it comes as no surprise that Jessica Hynes has been able to amass such a substantial wealth in the highly competitive world of showbiz.
As a teenager Hynes was a member of the National Youth Theatre company, and made her stage début with the company in Lionel Bart's Blitz in 1990. In 1992–93 she played a season at the West Yorkshire Playhouse, Leeds. In the same year she appeared in Peter Greenaway's 1993 film The Baby of Mâcon, playing the first midwife.
In 1999, she co-wrote and starred in Spaced. Her London theatre début was in April 2002, playing the tough ex-prisoner "Bolla" in Jez Butterworth's The Night Heron at the Royal Court. In 2004 she played a minor part as Yvonne in horror comedy Shaun of the Dead, again working with Pegg and Wright. In the same year she was also cast as Magda, friend of the titular character, in the Hollywood sequel Bridget Jones' Diary 2 also called Bridget Jones' Diary: The Edge of Reason. In 2005 Hynes took the lead role in the BBC One sitcom According to Bex (which she thought was so bad that she sacked her agent for putting her up for it), and had a starring role in British comedy Confetti alongside Jimmy Carr, Martin Freeman and Mark Heap.
In 2007, she starred in Son of Rambow (credited as Jessica Stevenson), playing Mary Proudfoot opposite the star of the film, Bill Milner.
In 2008, Hynes stated that she planned to pursue a solo career as a stand-up Comedian and was working on a children's book Ants in the Marmalade.
In 2009 she returned to the Royal Court in The Priory, a new play by Michael Wynne.
Hynes appeared as a "right-on" PR person Siobhan Sharpe in the London Olympic centred satire Twenty Twelve, of which the first series screened on BBC Four in 2011, moving to BBC Two in spring 2012. A further series was screened in July 2012. She reprised the role in the 2014 series W1A for which she won a Bafta.
In October 2012, she released a duet with singer Anthony Strong of Slim Gaillard's "Laughing in Rhythm". In December 2012 she appeared with co-star Hugh Bonneville in World's Most Dangerous Roads, travelling through Georgia.
In May 2017, Hynes endorsed Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn in the 2017 UK general election. She said: "The sado masochistic Tory binge has left us sore and unloved. We need a sweet socialist injection and post-coital cuddles. Vote Labour." In June, as part of the election campaign, she took part in an election video for the Women's Equality Party as Siobhan Sharpe.
