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. The biggest-hit category sharpens the box office contrast, especially because Jennifer Lawrence's leading film creates the stronger single-release benchmark.

The category score gives Jennifer Lawrence the broader edge, though the result remains a comparison of career outcomes rather than personal popularity. From a historical perspective, the matchup leans toward Jennifer Lawrence and remains tied to the selected ranking season.
