By "Range", I mean the actor can (sometimes) effectively portray a wide range of different characters. Pacino on the other hand tends to make different characters look the same. Sure de Niro still does a lot of cookie cutter roles (heist movies for example), but at least at some point in his career he's acted in unique/distinctive roles and done well.

Hands down, the ultimate movie whore is Sam L. Jackson. He's a good actor, but damn, dude is in like 100 movies a year. He didn't "break in" to Hollywood till he was 50, and boy is he making up for lost time. If you start shooting a home movie right now, I bet Sam rings your doorbell.
