In other news, the sky is blue. It did apparently gain an extra $4M from it's estimate. So the final tally is $191M.

Jackson has now surpassed Tom Hanks as the #1 grossing actor of all time You mean Samuel L Jackson wasn't already after appearing in Star Wars, MCU films, Jurassic Park and a billion other films? I'm honestly shocked since Samuel L Jackson has been in more movies and franchises then Tom Hanks

But do animated voice roles really count as drawing? But still Samuel L. Jackson appeared in over 100 films and Tom Hanks has only appeared in 56

Are we counting only movies where he is one of the main characters?

Tom Hanks headlined most of his movies as the top star and lead character. Sam Jackson is most often (but not always) a supporting character. In some of the Marvel films, his appearance is little more than a cameo (obviously not in Captain America: The Winter Soldier or The Avengers). This isn't meant to downplay Jackson, I'm just comparing the two.

Jackson also has the Star Wars prequels. They sucked but made decent movie every time.

I think Tom Hanks still edges out everyone as a Leading Man however. A lot of Samuel L Jackon's and Morgan Freeman's roles were supporting.

I never noticed Emma Watson and Stanley Tucci balled that hard. Emma Watson had the biggest female role in eight mega blockbusters (Harry Potter series). Also, since Harry Potter, she has had the most success in movies out of the three leads, with The Perks of Being a Wallflower, My Week With Marilyn, This is the End, and Noah, though some of these were not big roles. She's going to be in the upcoming Disney live action Beauty and the Beast as Belle, which will probably be a big hit.

Avengers: Age of Ultron is the latest entry in the Billion Dollar club, hitting the mark after 24 days of release. Ultron joins Marvel's The Avengers and Iron Man 3 as Marvel Studios' third billion-dollar earner and becomes Disney's eight release to hit the milestone
