Only a handful of Hollywood actors get to claim they are part of a billion-dollar franchise, but these stars managed to do it more than once.

Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Fewer than 60 movies have crossed $1 billion at the worldwide box office, meaning only a handful of actors have been in billion-dollar franchises, but some are lucky enough to be in more than one. Many of the highest-grossing franchises are large ensemble adventure films, like those in the MCU or Fast and Furious series, allowing several actors to jump between series.

32 Andy Serkis - Star Wars & The MCU & The Lord of the Rings Andy Serkis is another actor who has managed to be in three different billion-dollar franchises. Gollum, arguably still Serkis' most iconic role, was in both Middle-Earth films that cracked a billion, The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King and The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey.

28 Samuel L. Jackson - Star Wars & The MCU & The Incredibles Samuel L. Jackson is a screen legend, and it is not that surprising that he has managed to star in three different franchises that passed $1billion. His character of Nick Fury has appeared in 11 MCU films so far, six of which have passed $1billon; all four Avengers films, Captain Marvel, and Spider-Man: Far From Home.

24 Dominic Monaghan - Lord of the Rings & Star Wars While best known for his TV work on Lost, Dominic Monaghan also joined the Star Wars saga in The Rise of Skywalker, thus making him eligible for this list. Monaghan also plays the hobbit Merry in the Lord of the Rings films, the last of which grossed more than a billion. While Monaghan is also a mutant in the X-Men universe, those films never managed to hit a billion.

20 Tyrese Gibson - Fast and Furious & Transformers First known for his music career, Tyrese Gibson has successfully made the transition into action superstar. He has been in two separate car-related spectacle series, that have grossed over $1 billion. Film-wise, Tyrese is best known for his character of Roman Peirce in the Fast and Furious series, but he was also a reoccurring player in the first three Transformers movies.
