Favorite actor. Amazing. Can play both a callous and sympathetic villain.

2. Sigourney Weaver

Amazing range. Could pick better roles, but is great in everything she touches. "Holes" and "Aliens" were her best roles.

3. Will Smith

Willard Carroll "Will" Smith II (born September 25, 1968) is an American actor, comedian, producer, rapper, and songwriter. He has enjoyed success in television, film, and music. In April 2007, Newsweek called him "the most powerful actor in Hollywood". Smith has been nominated for five Golden ...

Great fun. I consider "Fresh Prince" to be the best sitcom ever. He's incredible; just wish he had more range.

4. Jamie Lee Curtis

Jamie Lee Curtis was born on November 22, 1958 in Los Angeles, California, the daughter of legendary actors Janet Leigh and Tony Curtis.

So much fun.

5. Morgan Freeman

With an authoritative voice and calm demeanor, this ever popular American actor has grown into one of the most respected figures in modern US cinema. Morgan was born on June 1, 1937 in Memphis, Tennessee, to Mayme Edna (Revere), a teacher, and Morgan Porterfield Freeman, a barber. The young Freeman...

The anti-Will Smith. Calm, cool, and collected. Love him.

6. Chris Tucker

Actor | Rush Hour 2

At one point in time, Chris Tucker was the highest-paid actor in Hollywood.

Tucker was born in Atlanta, Georgia, to Mary Louise (Bryant) and Norris Tucker, who owned a janitorial service. After graduating from high school, Tucker made a change to move to Hollywood from Georgia to pursue a career in ...

Awful...borderline abrasive.

7. Michael Cera

Actor | Scott Pilgrim vs. the World

Canadian actor Michael Cera was born in Brampton, Ontario, to parents who worked for Xerox. His mother, Linda, who is from Quebec, has English, Irish, Scottish, and Dutch ancestry, and his father, Luigi Cera, is Italian (from Sicily). Michael is the middle child between two sisters. He was educated...

Zero range, overly effeminate, and doesn't have any sense of timing.

8. Owen Wilson

Actor | The Royal Tenenbaums

Self-proclaimed troublemaker Owen Cunningham Wilson was born in Dallas, to Irish-American parents originally from Massachusetts. He grew up in Texas with his mother, Laura (Cunningham), a photographer; his father, Robert Andrew Wilson, an ad exec; and his brothers, Andrew Wilson (the eldest) and ...

Can't emote.

9. Brigitte Nelson

Actress | Demons

Brigitte Nelson is known for Demons (2007) and AFI Life Achievement Award (1973).

Her acting is physically painful to watch. At least Cera and Wilson have been in good movies.

10. Thorsten Kaye

Actor | All My Children

Thorsten moved to the US in 1985 on a track (decathlon) scholarship to the United States International University in San Diego. Although Thorsten majored in physical education (and minored in drama), a serious motorcycle accident forced him to choose a different direction. He played soccer for a ...

Star of the worst movie ever made: Shark Attack 2.
