Will Ferrell's 15 Highest-Grossing Movies
Will Ferrell is a household name whose work on Saturday Night Live and in films made him one of the leading comic actors of his generation. He began on-screen work in the mid-'90s, joined the informal Frat Pack with peers like Steve Carell and Paul Rudd, and rose to rank among the top 100 paid actors.
Ferrell’s dry, mischievous energy and knack for memorable dialogue have defined a long run of broadly popular comedies. Several of his biggest box office successes came in the mid-2000s. Blades of Glory topped the weekend on release and finished with $145.7 million, while Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby opened to $47 million and grossed $163.4 million.
He also turned a small, uncredited turn into a scene-stealing moment in Starsky & Hutch, which earned $170 million. Later hits include The Other Guys ($170.9 million), Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues ($173.6 million), and Daddy's Home 2 ($180.6 million).
