WILL FERRELL
Will Ferrell has had more jobs than Barbie. Since leaving Saturday Night Live, the comic actor has starred as a figure skater, a fashion designer, a news anchorman, a race car driver, a basketball player, an elf…you name it. Yet as formulaic as his repertoire may seem, Ferrell infuses comic genius in every single role. —Mark S. Luckie

STEVE CARELL
So he’s had one clunker (see: Evan Almighty), but still, there’s no denying that the Daily Show alum can bring the house down with the same force as that giant wave. Whether he’s playing a suicidal Proust scholar (Little Miss Sunshine) or an obtusely bigoted branch manager (The Office), Carell melts into his roles with ease, and a whole lot of endearing levity. — Kate Ward
