Once more people started to see his work and realize he was funny, calls kept coming in. Right off the back he was getting booked.

If I were to ask you to think of a name that best defines the role of funniest and most ridiculous person in Hollywood, I would bet that several of you would come up with the name Will Ferrell. This shouldn't come as a surprise to any of you as Ferrell has filled hilarious roles in recent years such as Buddy the elf, Ricky Bobby the racecar driver, Ron Burgandy the anchorman, Chaz Michael Michaels the figure skater, and many others. Ferrell has become a modern comical titan as he blew away Saturday Night Live with some of the best ratings in history and has developed into one of Hollywood's funniest and highest paid comical actors. With the way that he can pull off dumb humor and make people fall out of their chairs laughing time and time again, it seems that Ferrell was destined to be a comic from the start, but it wasn't always that way. Although he is now regarded as one of the funniest and highest paid comical actors in Hollywood, Ferrell's comic acting career probably spawned from a childhood hunger that for a long time, even Ferrell himself was unaware of.
He enjoys the Vacation series by National Lampoon. He also enjoys doing stand up as well as producing his own music and doing voice acting.
Generally, when someone is said to be the “best” at something, it is an arbitrary title given to someone by another person based purely of of their own narrow viewpoint.

Though some may think otherwise, Danny DeVito is a phenomenal actor, who may be considered one of the best in the industry, from his range as an actor, to the sheer number of awards he has won or been nominated for, or even his projects outside of film, he seems to have it all compared to all other actors.
Adam Goldberg, more aptly an all round iconic star has created his identity as a Hollywood actor, musician, producer and director.

Certainly, few actors have ever chosen such a baffling and unusual role in their calling. Actor Adam Goldberg was born as Adam Charles Goldberg on October 25, 1970, in Santa Monica, California. He was born to a Jewish father and non practicing Roman Catholic mother of mixed German, Irish and French descent. Thus being used to cross – cultural circumstances, Adam was not really an ardent follower of any particular religion. Early on, music and movies became subject of his intense passion. He went to study in Sarah Lawrence College where he was artistically and intellectually influenced. Actor Adam Goldberg made his big screen debut in 1992s film Mr. Saturday Night by then; his professional calling actually took off. However, his role in the movie is shaded off as he was casted in the minor ro...
John Belushi was a well-known comedian, but was hiding a troubling life. Belushi first began his career as a comedian in 1971 when he joined The Second City comedy group in Chicago.
