Screen favourite Julia Roberts concentrated on her private life this year, marrying cameraman Danny Moder in an intimate ceremony in July, but on the professional side, she’s lost a bit of ground, according to a new poll.

The U.S. Harris survey says that Tom Hanks has replaced Julia at the top of the favourite movie star ranking, perhaps thanks to the fact that he’s been in a major film - The Road To Perdition - while the Pretty Woman has not had a box office success in 2002.

Aussie actor Mel Gibson, who hit the screens with Signs, has shifted up into second place, while veterans Harrison Ford and Sean Connery hold fourth and fifth positons respectively.

The only other woman in the top ten is Sandra Bullock, currently sharing the billboards with Hugh Grant in Two Weeks Notice. She scrapes in at number ten in a list dominated by mature men. Clint Eastwood is in eighth position, while sixth place goes to John Wayne, who died in 1979.
