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 Zoe Saldana's leading film creates the stronger single-release benchmark.

Commercial scale is another meaningful divider, with the career domestic box office measure giving Zoe Saldana the larger theatrical footprint. The comparison therefore points leans toward Zoe Saldana, with the most meaningful separation coming from the highlighted career measures.
