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).

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 Zendaya.

Cameos and sources

No cameos

No named source calls any of Zendaya'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

Worldwide gross for 12 of 12 films. Primary source.
Re-releases, and the full total where The Numbers reports less. Not needed for Zendaya today.
Credits, billing, dates, posters. Second opinion on the gross: TMDB has a figure for 12 of 12 films, and 10 of those agree within 5%.
Cameo calls: a named source says the appearance is a cameo. Billing never decides. None of Zendaya's credits has a cameo call yet.

How the total is built

Every film counts once, whatever the role.
A film's gross is its original run plus re-releases.
Inflation is adjusted from the year the money was earned, to 2025 dollars.
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.

Check it yourself: add up the 12 counted films below and you get $10.42bn.

Find every film. We looked for every title Zendaya is credited on. We found 36 titles. 13 are left out by the switches. That leaves 23 films.
Find the money. 12 of the 23 films have a box office figure. That is the money that cinema tickets brought in around the world. 9 have no figure we trust yet, so they add nothing. We never guess. 2 are not out yet.
Count each film once. If someone acts in a film and also directs it, the film still counts one time.
Add it up. The 12 films together earned $10.42bn, in dollars as reported, not adjusted for inflation. Divide by 12 and the average is $868.67m a film.
Rank everyone. We add up every person the same way. Then we sort them from the biggest total to the smallest. Zendaya has the 17th biggest total of the 30 people ranked on TopLiner.

11 of the 12 films earned $100 million or more (in dollars as reported).
