- I'm just gonna paste this list from the comments:
__
Box office success over the past 5 years outside of a single film or franchise AND a top tier back catalogue of performances - the current box office bankers:
Scarlett Johansson, Emily Blunt, Amy Adams, Margot Robbie, Jennifer Lawrence, Emma Stone
Top tier back catalogue but a relative lower box office return outside of a single film or franchise over the past 5 years - the box office legends:
Jessica Chastain, Cate Blanchett, Sandra Bullock, Reece Witherspoon, Angelina Jolie, Julia Roberts, Melissa McCarthy, Meryl Streep, Charlize Theron, Nicole Kidman, Jenifer Aniston, Natalie Portman, Kate Winslet, Helen Mirren, Helena Bonham Carter, Sigourney Weaver, Halle Berry
Starting to build the box office returns outside of a single film or franchise and also building an interesting back catalogue - potential future box office mainstays:
Zendaya, Florence Pugh, Anya Taylor-Joy, Millie Bobby Brown, Ana de Armas, Saoirse Ronan, Elizabeth Olsen, Rachel McAdams, Lupita Nyong'o, Karen Gillen

The whole second tier is more or less legacy acts, but if you look at who's in that third tier with Zendaya and who's in that first tier, it'd be hard as hell to say she's closer to that first tier than the third one IMO. Emma may be #1 of her generation, but she did $120m for Poor Things as the entire linchpin of that movie. That's A-lister to me
She deserves the shyt she gets for allowing herself to be involved in the DCEU, but I still am shocked Amsterdam and Babylon were wet farts (at best). With those two and Asteroid City, we got some real misses with potential legendary casts before Barbenheimer.That disqualifies the entire article, because until Barbie she was becoming box office poison.
Did anyone see this shyt yet? What’s the verdict?
Amsterdam is pretty good but a little long, but Babylon was absolute dog shyt. You can't really count her in Asteroid City, because she was basically a glorified cameo. Remember Amsterdam bombed because people didn't want to support David O Russell after all those stories came out about him being an a$$hole on set.She deserves the shyt she gets for allowing herself to be involved in the DCEU, but I still am shocked Amsterdam and Babylon were wet farts (at best).

yeah she's definitely marketed for the white boys in Hollywood
Wait breh can you go into moreShe's in HBO's Euphoria which is a remake of an Israeli show. The whole thing is apparently a psyop of sorts.
I haven't watched it but ever since the Kendrick and Drake beef (who is one of several executive producers on it), everyone says the show is about highschoolers fukking and even sleeping with adults.Wait breh can you go into more
In the first season, there’s a treh high schooler that hooks up with an adult. That’s the only instance of an adult with a child in the show, as far as I know.I haven't watched it but ever since the Kendrick and Drake beef (who is one of several executive producers on it), everyone says the show is about highschoolers fukking and even sleeping with adults.
I think they were depending on the thought of having a devil's threesome with a B list actress being enough to draw people in.They really overestimated her drawing power
