The person who is the most successful actor -- if you take the box office of all their appearances and sum them -- is Stan Lee. All those MCU appearances adds up. You probably wouldn't be too surprised about that if you thought about it.
At position number 3 though is Frank Welker -- the guy who voices Fred in much of the original Scooby-Doo cartoons. More recently he's Nibbler in Futurama. The top 5 have 2 other voice actors, including Bob Bergan -- who played Merv in Monsters University, and unforgettably Ant Worker #2 in Antz
When you are credited as "Additional Voices", does it really apply?
Incidently, Stan Lee may be top of the charts in total, but Warwick Davis is a bigger hit on average -- bringing $633m per film he's in compared to Lee's $612m.
Do extras count? Many of them aren't going to be listed in the credits.
Perhaps you could only count those actors listed in the credits at the end of the film and nobody else?
