The actress, who has also appeared in titles like \u201cBlack Mirror\u201d and \u201cIndustry\u201d in more recent years, posts for an audience that pays $6 each month to access her content, which includes additional revenue from occasional \u201cpaid-for messages.\u201d Cave shared that she made \u00a315,000 within a single day.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve earned more, easily, than my entire acting career within one year,\u201d she said. \u201cI thought I\u2019d make five grand, be on it for a few months and it would buy me time to work out what we\u2019re going to do \u2026 But it\u2019s now been over a year and a half and it\u2019s genuinely saved our lives.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\t\t<a class=\"the-wrap-read-more__image\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thewrap.com\/commentary-analysis\/data-analysis\/harry-potter-is-a-major-retention-engine-for-hbo-max-chart\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Harry-Potter-HBO.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"Alastair Stout, Dominic McLaughlin and Arabella Stanton star in &quot;Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone.&quot; (Aidan Monaghan\/HBO)\"   data-portal-copyright=\"TheWrap\" data-has-syndication-rights=\"1\"\/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<p>In the interview, Cave acknowledged the \u201cstigma\u201d that comes with operating on OnlyFans, which is known for hosting \u201clargely porn\u201d creators.

To get the house safe, cover the arsenic\/lead wallpaper, build a new roof etc. My aim? To get out of debt. My aim? To empower myself? To prove to those in the past who have misjudged me that I\u2019m not so sweet? To put time into something I never invested in before: self-love,\u201d she wrote at the time.<\/p>\n<p>Cave isn\u2019t the only established actor to launch an OnlyFans for supplementary revenue.
