The Mummy Returns (2001)
The well-muscled and well-oiled wrestler began his film career in this adventurous sequel. His turn as Mathayus (i.e., the Scorpion King), an ancient evil, was so well-received that the character got his own prequel in 2002.
Be Cool (2005)
Wig? Goatee? Sure! For this cheeky sequel to the caper Get Shorty, Johnson quite literally stood out in an eclectic ensemble that included JohnTravolta, UmaThurman, VinceVaughn and DannyDeVito.
The Devil Wears Prada (2006)
As snippy assistant No. 1 to MerylStreep’s ultra-demanding magazine editor, the little-known Blunt delivered the goods in a stylish comedy. “She was so horrible because she was so hungry!” Blunt jokes.
Charlie Wilson’s War (2007)
In a brief-but-memorable role, Blunt illustrated an impressive Southern drawl and seduced a wily politician (TomHanks).
Fast Five (2011)
Put that car in overdrive! Johnson joined the Fast & Furious crew in its fifth installment, playing good-guy marshal Luke Hobbs. He’s since reprised the role four times, including in the 2019 spinoff, Hobbs & Shaw.
San Andreas (2015)
For this big-budget summer action pic, Johnson saved his daughter (and thousands of others, naturally) in the aftermath of a massive California earthquake. A 10 on the Richter scale of fun.
The Girl on the Train (2016)
Blunt was the titular character—a lonely alcoholic who may or may not have witnessed a murder—in this adaptation of the bestselling thriller.
Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (2017)
Johnson was game to show off his broad comedy chops alongside KarenGillan, KevinHart and JackBlack in this smash revival. They reprised the roles in a 2019 follow-up.
A Quiet Place (2018)
Blunt and her husband, JohnKrasinski, starred in this fantastically frightening nail-biter, playing a couple that try very, very, very hard to protect their kids from aliens that hunt by sound. The sequel, which he also directed, was released in May.
Mary Poppins Returns (2018)
If anyone could swoop in on an umbrella and fill JulieAndrews’ shoes as the magical nanny Mary Poppins, it was Blunt. Her singing and dancing was supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.
