At this point in the rankings, Jessica Lange versus Viggo Mortensen is best read as a compact career snapshot rather than an all-time verdict. Commercial scale is another meaningful divider, with the career domestic box office measure giving Viggo Mortensen the larger theatrical footprint.

The biggest-hit category sharpens the box office contrast, especially because Viggo Mortensen's leading film creates the stronger single-release benchmark. Overall, the head-to-head score leans leans toward Viggo Mortensen, but the strongest context comes from the categories where the gap is clearest.
