In order to become a household name, every actor or actress must have that breakthrough year. Whether it's their upcoming part in a huge movie, or a steady succession of great roles which look set to bring them to a wider attention, every single year brings with it a crop of talent whose stars rise further than even they'd probably thought possible. A predominantly sub-25 age group (though there are exceptions to this) who are sure to be bona fide A-listers by the time the year is out. 2016 will be no exception, and with a gamut of major blockbusters due (X-Men: Apocalypse, Suicide Squad, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice), it looks increasingly obvious that these films will propel their young names into the cinematic stratosphere. Starting with a trio of performers who have been due to break out for the last couple of years (and who have massive movies out this year as a culmination of that) before moving on to a truly 2016 set, these nine actors and actresses could all dominate the film world this coming year, and for many more after it.
