The most successful stars in Hollywood last longer because they are able to combine talent, versatility and hard work ethic. They manage to appear in hit after hit across the span of their careers, despite some inevitable set backs.

"Star Wars" fans were sent into a frenzy Thursday as studio giant Disney revealed the title of the iconic franchise's seventh episode -- "The Force Awakens" -- and said filming was over.
