art Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 The highest grossing actor of all time? None other than the baddest dude in Hollywood: Samuel L. Jackson. And it makes sense, the 62-year-old actor has starred in over 100 films, including box-office monsters like the "Star Wars" prequels, "Iron Man," "Pulp Fiction," "Jurassic Park" and the most recent, "The Avengers." His hard work has certainly paid off, he grossed a jaw-dropping $7.42 billion over the span of his career and landing in the Guinness Book of World Records. But Jackson is not resting on his laurels. The actor is currently starring in a re-imagined Martin Luther King, Jr. production, "The Mountaintop" and cultivating even more fans via his newly-minted twitter. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/10/26/jackson_n_1033049.html Legend.

cnd Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 With such monster hits as the Star Wars series and Jurassic Park to his name, it's not so surprising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TwistedElegance™ Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 I find it interesting that he's the highest-grossing actor, but by no means the most bankable. He plays a supporting role in every film listed in that article. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janetDAYZ Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 What makes this record the shit is the fact that its unexpected that it would be him of ALL the huge actors in Hollywood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He plays a supporting role in every film listed in that article. You're right. He's just very busy. I think he's starred in a major motion picture every year since 1989 I think.

xu1993 Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 Sometimes I get his movies mixed up with Danny Glover films. They look nothing alike, but have a similar "vibe". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
