The nightly snapshot series · the time series behind the leaderboard, with its live pointShow

This series is pre-computed and does not yet respond to the appearance switches: it always counts every credited appearance.

Annual points through 2019, monthly from 2020, then daily snapshots from 5 August 2026, with the latest shown as live (dashed, see note below).

in 2025 money
Use the arrow keys to read the values.

Note on the last point: historical points only count a film once its earliest release date is at least 90 days old. The live point (dashed line above) is ungated and includes films released within the last 90 days, so it can jump ahead of the historical curve rather than extend it smoothly.

No films currently sit inside that 90-day gate for Chris Evans.

Cameos and sources

No cameos

No named source calls any of Chris Evans's credits a cameo, so the total and the rank are the same with cameos counted or not.

Our rule: a cameo is what a named source calls a cameo. Billing never decides. How cameos are decided

Where the numbers come from

  • The NumbersWorldwide gross for 35 of 35 films. Primary source.
  • Box Office Mojo by IMDbProRe-releases, and the full total where The Numbers reports less. Not needed for Chris Evans today.
  • TMDBCredits, billing, dates, posters. Second opinion on the gross: TMDB has a figure for 35 of 35 films, and 27 of those agree within 5%.
  • WikidataWikipediaCameo calls: a named source says the appearance is a cameo. Billing never decides. None of Chris Evans's credits has a cameo call yet.
How the total is built
  1. Every film counts once, whatever the role.
  2. A film's gross is its original run plus re-releases.
  3. Inflation is adjusted from the year the money was earned, to 2025 dollars.
  4. Appearances as themselves and archive footage are not counted as films. Any box office they carry stays in the total unless that switch is off.

The receipts

Here is every film, every figure, and how we added it up.

  • All time, worldwide, all roles
  • adjusted for inflation, in 2025 dollars

Uncredited appearances: counted. Appearances as themselves: counted where the film has box office. Cameos: not counted.

We counted 35 films. Together they earned $21.98bn. Each film is counted once. That is the 5th biggest total, all time, worldwide, out of the 30 people ranked on TopLiner. Ranks come from the leaderboard published on 1 November 2026.

How it adds up

68titles found
53films
35with money
$21.98bntotal

Check it yourself: add up the 35 counted films below and you get $21.98bn.

  1. Find every film. We looked for every title Chris Evans is credited on. We found 68 titles. Of these, 15 show Chris Evans as themselves or in old clips. They have no box office figure, so they are not counted as films. That leaves 53 films.

  2. Find the money. 35 of the 53 films have a box office figure. That is the money that cinema tickets brought in around the world. 16 have no figure we trust yet, so they add nothing. We never guess. 2 are not out yet.

  3. Count each film once. If someone acts in a film and also directs it, the film still counts one time. 1 film here has more than one job for Chris Evans.

  4. Add it up. The 35 films together earned $21.98bn, adjusted for inflation, in 2025 dollars. Divide by 35 and the average is $628.01m a film.

  5. Rank everyone. We add up every person the same way. Then we sort them from the biggest total to the smallest. Chris Evans has the 5th biggest total of the 30 people ranked on TopLiner.

19 of the 35 films earned $100 million or more (in dollars as reported).
