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 Zendaya holding the stronger position in this snapshot.

Domestic theatrical output favors Matthew McConaughey, whose advantage across domestic theatrical releases gives the comparison more long-range context. Based on the available ranking data, the balance stays evenly split without turning the result into a subjective judgment of acting quality.
