Actors With Highest Box Office Gross By Letter – Choose Letter (Live)

Directions

First choose any letter, then name the top 100 actors/actress whose last name (surname) starts with that letter with the highest total domestic box office gross for films in which they appeared in a leading role (incl animated films). Minimum $10 million total gross, so some letters will have under 100 answers. Total gross and # of movies shown. Occasionally actors known by a much more common name use that name to determine the letter they are under.

This quiz is LIVE meaning it updates automatically when new box office figures are released.

Enter a letter to begin.

There’s something wrong with this quiz, actors show up 3 times (George Carlin for instance). Some parts of the source material list seems to be copied.

Shocked that Tom Felton didn’t make the F’s. At least as big a part of the HP series as Robbie Coltrane.

keep in mind they need to be in a leading role to count for this quiz. that’s a subjective thing.

any actors under the wrong letter? let me know. keep in mind per directions actors who have a much more commonly-used name will be sorted under that name.
