Film and TV industry awards are hard to come by. Competition is fierce, particularly for the major awards like the Oscars and BAFTAs. Some actors can only dream of getting their hands on a golden statuette or a bronze mask — while others have managed to amass quite a collection.
But who has won the most awards? We’ve done the math (our methodology), and here are the 55 actors who’ve won the greatest total number of the five most prestigious awards for screen actors — Academy Awards, Golden Globes, BAFTA Awards, Primetime Emmys and SAG Awards.
