Dan Aykroyd, owing much to the two “Ghostbusters” movies and a brief appearance in “Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom,” was second with $871 million. Eddie Murphy was third with $828 million. Bill Murray’s work generated ticket sales of $696 million for fourth place and Tom Cruise was fifth with $636 million.

The top actress was Kim Basinger in 15th place overall with combined sales of $432 million.
