List of highest-grossing actors

The following are non-definitive lists of the actors with the highest career-film grosses. There are box-office gross revenue lists, which are not adjusted for inflation, as well as lists for the number of box-office ticket sales.

Box-office gross revenue

Because of the effects of inflation on cinema ticket prices, a list unadjusted for inflation gives much more weight to later actors.[1] Therefore, gross revenue lists are largely meaningless for comparing acting careers widely separated in time, as many actors from earlier eras will not appear on a modern, unadjusted list, despite their films achieving higher commercial success when adjusted for inflation.[2]

All time

This list only includes leading roles and lead ensemble roles, including voice acting.

The list is updated as of 12&#;March&#;[update].

The list favors films and stars of the later eras as later films generally gross more. John Wayne topped the list. Variety noted that Crosby's last hit prior to was High Society in , and at that date he would have led the list.[38] They also noted that Gable was the undisputed king until he went into the Army in and that he wasn't ranked higher, as many of his earlier hits did not reach their $4 million cut-off and were therefore not included in his total.[38]
