Ranked: These Comedians Have Made Us Laugh For Decades

38. Charlie Chaplin

During the silent film era, few stars made an imprint as much as Charlie Chaplin. He rose to worldwide fame after appearing as his on-screen persona, The Tramp, and is mainly considered to be one of the leading and important figures in film history.

In fact, silent performances from Chaplin would inspire decades of comedic performances, notably from characters like Mr. Bean – who we see later in this list. Overall, his career spanned more than 75 years.
