Today, Hollywood is such a major part of the entertainment industry, with so many actors displaying their incredible talents in multiple movies and TV shows. But where did they begin? Or rather, at what point did they suddenly become mega-stars? We’re here to list some of the most known actors today and see when they made it from just being an actor to becoming a famous movie star.
Emma Stone
Before she became the famous movie star we know her as today, Emma Stone had an anonymous beginning, just like most actors in Hollywood. Her film debut was the movie Superbad released in 2007, playing alongside Michael Cera and Jonah Hill. Up until then, Stone had done several minor TV roles, but nothing stuck. Superbad was a major commercial success, resulting in her making a name for herself in Hollywood in a short amount of time. Since then, Stone has been in many movies, including starring in Easy A and playing Gwen Stacey in The Amazing Spider-Man movies.

Steve Carell
Many people know Steve Carell as a great comedic Hollywood actor. But until around 2004, not many people knew of him at all. That year, after years of attempting to launch his acting career, Carell landed a role in a major film called Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy. With the movie being a success, Carell became one of Hollywood’s stars. After this initial launch, Carell landed the role of Michael Scott in the TV show The Office in 2005, and ever since his career flourished.
