1. I have worked
2. I have only been
3. was
4. it came out
5. I have starred
6. I have won
7. I have not won
8. I married
9. came
10. Have you worked out

Explanation:

1. The phrase "since the 1970s" indicates that the action of working as an actor started in the past and continues up until now, so we use the present perfect form "have worked."

2. The phrase "for about 15 years" indicates a specific time frame that has already ended, so we use the past simple form "was."

3. The phrase "when it came out" indicates a specific point in the past when the action of the movie being a box office disaster happened, so we use the past simple form "was."

4. The phrase "since then" indicates that the action of starring in hit movies started in the past and continues up until the present, so we use the present perfect form "have starred."

5. The phrase "throughout my career" indicates that the action of winning awards happened at different points in the past up until now, so we use the present perfect form "have won."

6. The phrase "so far" indicates that the action of not winning an Oscar continues up until the present, so we use the present perfect form "have not won."

7. The phrase "in 1985" indicates a specific point in the past when the action of marrying Demi Moore happened, so we use the past simple form "married."

8. The phrase "in 1998" indicates a specific point in the past when the action of the marriage coming to an end happened, so we use the past simple form "came."

9. The phrase "My first name begins with 'B'" indicates a fact or a general statement, so we use the present perfect form "have you worked out" to ask about a current status.

Note: Short forms can be used for the contracted forms of "have" and "i" (i.e., I've and I'm), but the full forms have been used in this answer for clarity.
