Check out Octavia Spencer ‘s career compared to current and classic actors. Most 100 Million Dollar Movies of All-Time.
Academy Award® and Oscar® are the registered trademarks of the Academy of Motion Arts and Sciences.
I’ve only seen 9 of their movies, and some I don’t remember she was in (Spider-Man, Being John Malcovitch), but I find Octavia Spence to be a very natural and spontaneous actress. She was amazing and very convincing in The Help. I also liked her in The Shape of Water. I’ve yet to see Hidden Figures. Didn’t realize she had been in so many films.
I have seen just 4 Octavia Spencer movies – Spiderman, A Time to Kill, Being John M and Percy Jackson Sea of Monsters. My favourite among them is A Time to Kill. Clearly in seeing so few of her movies I have been missing something as she is one of only two black actresses to be nominated 3 times for an Academy Award, the other being Viola Davis.
Also IMDB credits Octavia with 34 acting awards and 66 nominations. She has also had a highly prolific parallel TV career and is the author of a children’s book series. Her net worth is said to be $12 million.
UPCOMING PROJECTS Octavia will return to television by starring in the Apple television series Are You Sleeping as well as starring in the Netflix limited series Madam C. J. Walker. For both series, Spencer will serve as an executive producer. Furthermore, Spencer will reunite with her The Help co-star Jessica Chastain for a holiday comedy film.
“Voted UP!”
Octavia has guest starred a number of times on Allison Janney’s TV series “Moms”.
Hey Dan…good information on Spencer and Janney……one would have to assume that they are friends off screen….or there would be no way they would keep taking jobs together. They can at least compare Best Supporting Actress Oscar winning nights and speeches…lol.
The face is familiar, not so much the name.
I’ve seen 13 of the 53 films on the chart, more than I expected.
Favorites are – The Shape of Water, Spider-Man, A Time to Kill, Zootopia, Percy Jackson, Allegiant, Insurgent and Detergent.
Good stuff Bruce. Vote Up!
Hey Steve…..she seems to be everywhere these days….and she is expanding into producing. She was one of the main reasons Green Book got made….she got lots of shouts on the Oscar show…and she was on the stage. So that is two years in a row she was involved in the last two Best Picture winners. I have seen 35 of her movies. Shocked I have seen that many….as I was not aware she had that many movies. Seen all of your favorites. She has some gems here as well. With Small Town Crime (she produced that one too), Snowpiercer (I am betting you saw that one….but did not like it) and What Planet Are You From? (sci-fi comedy with a great cast, Goodman, Kingsley, Bening and Gary Shandling). Thanks for the visit and the vote up….they are greatly appreciated.
Octavia used to be on the Oracle of Bacon Top 1000 Center of the Hollywood Universe but fell off with the change in info from Wikipedia. These are the actors on the top 1000 from December 15, 2018 list that she has worked with.

Hey Dan….thanks for the Octavia Spencer lists. Pretty shocked she is not on the current list. In a pretty short period of time (1996-2009) she has built one heckuva movie resume. Looking at the massive first list….we see she has appeared with many of the Top 1000. That is probably one of the longest lists for a person NOT to be in the Top 1000. I had no idea her and Allison Janey had made so many movies together….heck…I did not realize Janey had made many movies at all. I like seeing John Hawkes on the list….I like him as an actor….and one of their three movies…Small Town Crimes was one of the best movies I saw in 2018.
As for the Oscar winning co-stars…31…for a person that has only made movies for 24 years is pretty good…think of all the Oscar winners that had passed on before 1996….means her Oscar pool is not as plentiful as people as Caine and Connery. Good stuff as always…..thanks again.
