Summary

Zoe Saldaña now leads all actors with $15.46 billion in grosses.
Her success is driven by 'Avatar' and 'Marvel' film roles.
Robert Downey Jr. and Chris Pratt are close contenders for the top spot.

Zoe Saldaña has once again claimed the top spot as Hollywood's highest-grossing actor, with her lifetime film earnings now reaching $15.46 billion. This achievement was propelled by her recent appearance as Neytiri in "Avatar: Fire and Ash," which has garnered $1.23 billion globally and continues to climb. Her extensive work in both the "Avatar" series and the Marvel Cinematic Universe, where she portrayed Gamora, has solidified her box office dominance.

Saldaña now leads Scarlett Johansson, who previously held the title, and is followed by other prominent actors such as Samuel L. Jackson, Robert Downey Jr., and Chris Pratt. The success of these actors is significantly tied to their involvement in major franchises like Marvel and "Avatar." "Avatar: Fire and Ash" is expected to push the franchise's total gross past $6.5 billion soon.

Future box office rankings remain dynamic, with potential shifts expected. Robert Downey Jr. may ascend the list with his upcoming role in "Avengers: Doomsday," while Chris Pratt could also challenge for the lead with upcoming films. Saldaña is slated to reprise her role as Neytiri in two more "Avatar" installments, scheduled for release in 2029 and 2031, suggesting her reign at the box office may continue.
