Probably Will. Eddie is totally a candidate. It wouldn't surprise me.

Denzel, Will and Samuel L are all more recognized. I'd put Eddie in the Top 5 though

Depends on what you mean by biggest. By acclaim it would have to be Denzel with is Academy awards but in terms of just popularity than Will Smith was massive a decade ago, made more bank than white actors too for a period.

If we're talking popularity then Will Smith got this hands down. Eddie Murphy isn't that well known.
