Myosin makes up the THICK filaments, and actin makes up the thin filaments of myofibrils.
There are two major proteins found in muscles, actin and myosin.

thick filaments and thin filaments
Thin filaments consist primarily of the protein actin, coiled with nebulin filaments. Thick filaments consist primarily of the protein myosin, held in place by tit in filaments.
Myofibrils are made up of actin (thin filaments) and myosin (thick filaments).
In the thin filaments of miofibrils, actin is the primary protein. In the thick filaments, myosin is the primary protein.Troponin, Tropomyosin, myosin.
Myosin
No, myofibrils contain both thick filaments (myosin) and thin filaments (actin) which when activated overlap each other as part of muscular contraction.
Myofibrils are composed of proteins such as actin, myosin, titin. These proteins are organized into thin filaments and thick filaments, which repeat along the length of the myofibril in sections called sarcomeres.
Myosin. The A band has thick (myosin) and thin (actin) filaments.
thick filaments
The filaments of myofibrils constructed from proteins, myofilaments, consist of 2 types, thick and thin. Thin filaments consist primarily of the protein actin; thick filaments consist primarily of the protein myosin. The protein complex composed of actin and myosin is sometimes referred to as "actomyosin." In striated muscle, such as skeletal and cardiac muscle, the actin and myosin filaments each have a specific and constant length on the order of a few micrometers, far less than the length of the elongated muscle cell (a few millimeters in the case of human skeletal muscle cells). The filaments are organized into repeated subunits along the length of the myofibril. These subunits are called sarcomeres.
