Hollywood stars like Tom Cruise and Samuel L Jackson are ten-a-penny these days – you can’t leave the house without seeing their faces plastered on bus stops and the sides of buildings. What of the actors who have achieved great success but receive no recognition for their work? Below are the 10 highest-grossing movie stars you've never heard of according to Yahoo movies.
1. Frank Welker
Total box-office: £4.46 billion
His first famous role was Fred in ‘Scooby-Doo’, but since then, Welker has also voiced Iceman, various Gremlins, The Joker, Barney Rubble, Dr Claw in ‘Inspector Gadget’, Totoro, Slimer, loads of Smurfs, Kermit the Frog (in ‘Muppet Babies’), Abu in ‘Aladdin’, Curious George, King Kong (completing a monkey hat-trick), Garfield, Nibbler in ‘Futurama’ and only the bloody anaconda in ‘Anaconda’.
2. Bob Bergen
Total box-office: £3.25 billion
Bob Bergen has made a mint by being one of Disney’s most loved voiceover artists, combining with them on Pixar features including ‘WALL-E’, the ‘Toy Story’ movies and ‘Monsters, Inc.’. He’s also crossed the animation divide, voicing several Looney Tunes characters like Porky Pig.
3. Jack Angel
Total box-office: £2.54 billion
He’s played Shark, Rocky and Chunk across the ‘Toy Story’ trilogy and was the voice of Teddy in Steven Spielberg’s ‘A.I. Artificial Intelligence’ opposite Haley Joel Osment. Not many people can say they’ve played Dennis the Menace and Nick Fury but Angel is one of them.
