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. Commercial scale is another meaningful divider, with the career domestic box office measure giving Sean Connery the larger theatrical footprint.

The category score gives Sean Connery the broader edge, though the result remains a comparison of career outcomes rather than personal popularity. The comparison therefore points leans toward Sean Connery, with the most meaningful separation coming from the highlighted career measures.
