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. Selected-year rank is the clearest ranking-side separator, with Margot Robbie holding the stronger position in this snapshot.

The biggest-hit category sharpens the box office contrast, especially because Margot Robbie's leading film creates the stronger single-release benchmark. Based on the available ranking data, the balance leans toward Denzel Washington without turning the result into a subjective judgment of acting quality.
