Sacha Baron Cohen has earned a place on Britain's rich list, amassing a fortune of £105 million.

The comedian who is best known for his roles as Ali G, Borat and Bruno, has joined the ranks of Britain’s super-rich and gained himself a spot on the Sunday Times Rich List for the first time.

The 44-year-old and his wife and fellow actor, Isla Fisher, 40, were listed as number 936 in the list which contains Britain’s richest 1000 people.

The BAFTA-award winning actor’s films have taken more than $3.4 billion at the box office, with Bruno and Borat gathering nearly $400 million alone.

Fellow actor, Mike Myers, who created Austin Powers, also made his debut on the list. The 52-year-old has an equivalent fortune of £105 million and is eligible because he has joint British-American citizenship.

Formula One champion Lewis Hamilton has been named as Britain’s wealthiest sportsman with £106 million.

Adele has been identified as Britain’s richest ever female musician after more than doubling her earnings since last year. Her finances have increased from £35 million to £85 million.

But the super-rich have taken a hit this year, with many seeing the largest fall in their wealth since the financial crash. The number of London billionaires dropped for the first time since the financial crisis – from 80 in 2015 to 77 this year.
