It all depends on how you are measuring success. If it is in terms of financial earnings and highest grossing movies, then in modern times it would be Scarlett Johansson, who has been the lead in 32 films, which have grossed over $14.5 billion. 

If it is by ticket sales, it would be the 1930’s and 1940’s heart throb, Clark Gable, with an estimated 1,168,300,000 ticket sales at the box office. List_of_highest-grossing_actors

If measured by 0scar wins, it would be Katherine Hepburn who won four Academy Awards (all for Best Actress) between 1933 to 1981. Actors-with-the-most-oscars

If we are talking about successful longevity, it would be Tom Cruise, who has made 43 movies, grossing $11 billion at the box office. His first big hit was Risky Business (1983) and his latest Top Gun: Maverick (2022).
