Note: Films released during the selected year influence the following year's rankings.

By the 2026 season, the comparison is less about a single breakout moment and more about the shape of each actor's accumulated Hollywood results. Domestic theatrical output favors Burt Reynolds, whose advantage across domestic theatrical releases gives the comparison more long-range context.

The biggest-hit category sharpens the box office contrast, especially because Zendaya's leading film creates the stronger single-release benchmark. From a historical perspective, the matchup stays evenly split and remains tied to the selected ranking season.
