The largest movie database on the Internet (also known as IMDb) annually compiles a list of the top 10 actors and actresses of the year.
In particular, this list includes people who “invariably took first places in the STARmeter IMDbPro weekly schedule for 2019.” The STARmeter rating is based on actual page views on the IMDb website.
10. Joaquin Phoenix
This actor starred in one of the most successful films of 2019 - "The Joker" by Todd Phillips.
And although the Russian Minister of Culture, Vladimir Medinsky, did not approve of this picture, but most viewers, as well as foreign critics, disagree with him and read Oscar to Joaquin Phoenix for a brilliant acting.
9. Margot Robbie
It's funny and even symbolic that the next in the list of the best actors and actresses in the world is the one who played the Joker girlfriend in "Suicide Squad."
In 2019, Margot Robbie starred in Quentin Tarantino’s film “Once Upon a Time ... in Hollywood” and played one of the main roles in the movie “Scandal”. And there is still the release of the film “Birds of Prey”, in which Margo will again delight the audience with the look of the sexy and reckless Harley Quinn.
8. Rosa Salazar
Rosa started her way into the top 10 most popular Hollywood actors and actresses at the end of 2018, playing a major role in Netflix's Bird Box and ending it in 2019 with her hit Alita: Battle Angel. But this role could go to Zendea, Mike Monroe or Bella Thorne.
During the filming of Alita, the entire lower part of Salazar’s face was transferred to the film. If with a smile the actress appeared dimples on her cheeks, they appeared in Alita. And the heroine’s huge eyes are a tribute to Yukito Kishiro’s manga, from which “Battle Angel” was “born”.
7. Keanu Reeves
How can the list of the brightest and favorite Hollywood stars do without the amazing Keanu Reeves? And he was very busy in 2019! He starred in the movie John Wick 3, voiced Toy Story 4, and delighted fans by appearing with his new lover, 46-year-old artist Alexandra Grant, who looked a lot like actress Helen Mirren.
6. Zachary Levy
This actor became a superhero in 2019, playing a major role in the fantastic comedy “Shazam!”. This, of course, caused an increase in his rating on IMDb.
By the way, do you know how the word "Shazam" stands for?
- S- Solomon, the personification of wisdom.
- H- Hercules, the embodiment of superpower.
- A- Atlas, super endurance and almost complete invulnerability.
- Z- Zeus the Thunderer.
- A- Achilles, a symbol of courage.
- M“Mercury, fast, almost like Flash.”
5. Dacre Montgomery
The success and fame of Montgomery in 2019 brought the appearance in the third season of "Very Strange Things" as Billy Hargrove. In addition to her, in the piggy bank of Montgomery, there is also the role of the Red Ranger in the 2017 film “Power Rangers”.
In addition, Dacre received the 2019 IMDb STARmeter award in the Breakthrough Star category during a recent visit to one of the IMDb Show series.
“We spent nine months working on season 3 (“ Very Strange Things ”) to finally make it happen, and Billy’s storyline had evolution and resolution, and it was really exciting,” said Dacre Montgomery. The actor also added that he was flattered by the fact that viewers react so well to his character.
4. Naomi Scott
In 2019, Naomi Scott had two blockbusters: Disney's Aladdin, where she played Princess Jasmine, and the restart of the action movie Charlie's Angels, where she played one of the Angels.
The second film earned cool reviews from viewers and critics because of its frank feminist message and template plot. But it’s hardly Scott's fault. It’s just that some remakes shouldn’t be "born".
3. Emilia Clark
Although the “Game of Thrones" did not end as triumphantly as it was expected from a truly great series, Emilia Clark was one of his brightest stars. And until the end she tried to play her role as best as possible. And IMDb fully appreciated her efforts, including him in the list of best actresses of 2019.
2. Erin Moriarty
Since the episode "Boys" was released, Erin Moriarty has dominated the STARmeter chart. She plays Starlight, a very regular superhero living in a world where superheroes have become commonplace.
1. Bree Larson
Captain Marvel from the eponymous blockbuster and the best film of 2019 - “Avengers: Final” - took first place on the IMDb podium.
But there is no time to relax, ahead of shooting the second part of the film about Captain Marvel, in which the main feminist of the Galaxy will save everyone, and for this, perhaps, he will again get the palm on the list of the most popular actresses and actors in the world.
By the way, Bree Larson suffers from a severe allergy to cats and this condition tormented her during the filming of "Captain Marvel."
