UPDATED JUNE 2011

With Courtney Cox starring in her third TV series and Ricky Gervais starring in his second film, I decided to create a list of actors/actresses who have had success in both the TV and Film mediums.

Suggestions welcome

Enjoy!

Seth Rogen, James Franco, Matthew Perry, Lisa Kudrow, Kevin James, David Spade, Alec Baldwin, Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, Jason Bateman... any of the people from SNL

I guess it depends on how 'successful' is necessary to make the list
