Note: Films released during the selected year influence the following year's rankings.

By the 2021 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 Mark Ruffalo holding the stronger position in this snapshot.

The biggest-hit category sharpens the box office contrast, especially because Mark Ruffalo's leading film creates the stronger single-release benchmark. From a historical perspective, the matchup stays evenly split and remains tied to the selected ranking season.
