(b) In the given sentence, 'horribly' (an adverb) is modifying the noun 'actor', whereas an adverb can modify a verb, adjective or another adverb but not a noun. 'Actor' can be modified by the adjective 'horrible'. This eliminates options d) and e). 'He' is a singular pronoun. The use of 'are' (plural) is inappropriate here in option c), making it an incorrect option. So, we replace the highlighted phrase with 'is a horrible actor'. Hence, option b) is correct. The correct sentence is: He is a horrible actor, and I'm surprised his films are so popular.
