Is Eddie Murphy the biggest black actor ever?

[JackRoss]

This! Eddie Murphy is a global superstar & Denzel while famous, wouldn't be as well known worldwide. Will & Eddie are either a tie or Will may be slightly more known due to his music career.

Eddie made great music, a$$hole...........

I never mentioned he didn't bytch!



Plus anyone with half a brain could figure out that Will Smith had a more successful career music wise than Eddie.

Just to throw in wild card

Oprah Winfrey she started out acting still does some ocationall

Is already billionaire and very recognizable

 

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Samuel L. Jackson has grossed more money than ANY actor in history so...

I'm talking about all time...
And nobody outside US knows denzell...
Will is 2nd prolly

LIESSSS maybe in Brazil

I would say internationally its Eddie and then Will Smith. I'm only speaking of all time. I think when Eddie was on top, he was almost in the Michael Jackson stratosphere. Samuel Jackson doesn't have as many hits as a leading man. He's been in a lot of movies, but his biggest hits are in supporting roles. Denzel is probably the most consistent domestically.

No, he fell off and I don't think he's that famous. I think it's either Denzel Washington or Will Smith.

these two, and it's arguable that sam jackson has had a bigger film career than eddie.

 

[Mess World]

Samuel has starred in better movies than Eddie shyt even been in better movies than Will Smith. His Tarantino roles kill shyt
