For example, I don't like Will Ferrell in his typical roles. Oh they just drive me batty.

But. I do love Stranger Than Fiction. It's such a cozy movie.

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson.

Although I wouldn't call him an actor. So I'm not sure if I answered the question.

He was the highest paid actor a couple years ago so unfortunately I think we have to count him as an actor. He wasn't getting paid nearly as much in the WWE I don't think. He's nearing billionaire status. If he does barely anything he should probably hit it in the next 2-3 years.

a movie star perhaps, but not a true actor, as he cant act for shit, and i think he cares more about the movie star status more than acting, and he doesnt try. dave bautista can act though.

Try watching his SNL appearances and his role in Get Shorty. He’s a decent actor he just chooses wooden roles because it is most profitable for him.

Edit: Be Cool not Get Shorty.

I think you’re thinking of Be Cool. The Rock was not in Get Shorty
