So, this list works and is calculated in the exact same manner as my Directors League.
It does not represent my preference towards individual performances or the strength of the actors' ability, as it is solely based on the score I have given their films as a complete product, regardless of their performances in them.
- The mean average is calculated using my personal scores out of 10 for each of the films each actor has starred in that I have seen.
- The order is determined by the highest average. The superior of any tying actors will be decided by total number of films seen (the more the better), and if that is the same they will be decided…

Actors are represented by my personal favourite performance they have given that I have seen. If their film has been taken by another actor, I'll pick the next runner up that is free.
The films I have seen (and that contribute towards their average) starring each actor are listed in the notes, along with the date on which I last watched the latest film added to their total [the film itself is highlighted in bold]) - UNDER CONSTRUCTION.
Updates will be posted in the comments when an actor moves up or down the pecking order.

A few notable differences:
- There is a 15-film minimum for a star to qualify for the list (it’s only 5 for Directors League.
- Instead of just feature films, scores from these formats will also be accounted for: shorts; miniseries; cameos (in films, not TV); voice parts; and uncredited roles. Basically, anything I've seen that I know they're in and/or either one of IMDb or Letterboxd acknowledges their appearance in them. TV series and documentaries will not be counted, but miniseries will, if they are on Letterboxd.
- Actors who only have voice parts will not be included unless they have actually acted in a couple of live action films too.
