Sigourney Weaver has a pretty salty list for a large portion of those categories, but not sure how Drama would stack up.

Action: Deadpool / Safehouse

Comedy: Deadpool / Van Wilder / The Proposal

Drama: Definitely, Maybe

George C Scott

He’s got such a broad filmography, outside of sci-fi you could rearrange this list and still have good movies.
