In 1997, Ford was ranked # 1 in Empire's "The Top 100 Movie Stars of All Time" list. As of July 2008, the domestic box office grosses of Ford's films total almost US$3.4 billion with worldwide grosses surpassing $6 billion, making Ford the No. 2 domestic box-office star for lead roles behind only Eddie Murphy and Tom Hanks. If counting both supporting movie roles as well as starring roles, Ford would be the 5th biggest film star, behind that of voice-actor Frank Welker, Samuel L. Jackson (whose biggest grossing films consist of him as a non-lead, supporting actor), Eddie Murphy and Tom Hanks.
