So I’m watching Kong today and I realize that there at four actors with prominent roles in Marvel movies in it.
Might be cheating a bit with that last one but I’ll take it.
That’s four. Can anyone name another one with more?
TRAFFIC had Michael Douglas (Ant-Man), Benicio del Toro (The Collector), Don Cheadle (Jim Rhodes), John Slattery (Howard Stark), Miguel Ferrer (VP Rodriguez), and Benjamin Bratt (Jon Pangborn) – plus Topher Grace, if the Spidey movies count.
The Losers (which is based on a DC comic book) has:
Idris Elba (Heimdall)
Chris Evans (Captain America)
Zoe Saldana (Gamora)
Not quite as many as the OP listed but I think it’s notable because these are three of the movie’s six leads.
The movie also has Jeffrey Dean Morgan, who has never played a Marvel character but has played four different DC characters.
Kind of a reach on a few of these, but Muppet’s Most Wanted had:
Toby Jones
James McAvoy
Chloe Grace Moretz
Tom Hiddleston
Ty Burrell
The top three leads in SPOTLIGHT – Keaton and Ruffalo and McAdams – all seem to qualify, along with Slattery and Tucci a little further down in the credits.
Plus Liev Schreiber.
The Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug
Ian McKellen
Martin Freeman
Richard Armitage
Evangeline Lilly
Lee Pace
Kate Blanchett (Thor: Ragnarok, so maybe not)
Bandersnatch Cummerbund
Crap, we gotta throw Karl Urban and Jeff Goldblum into the mix now, too.
Not going to beat “The Hobbit”, but…
The Hurt Locker (4) - Jeremy Renner, Anthony Mackie, Guy Pierce, Evangeline Lilly
Triple 9 (2) - Anthony Mackie and Chiwetel Ejiofor
Figured somebody’d jump on the LOTR bandwagon… here’s The Two Towers:
Cate Blanchett
Brad Dourif (was in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.)
Ian McKellen
Dominic Monaghan
Andy Serkis
Liv Tyler
Karl Urban
Hugo Weaving
David Wenham (Iron Fist)
The Martian had six:
Chiwetel Ejiofor - Doctor Strange
Donald Glover - Spiderman: Homecoming
Kate Mara - The Fantastic Four (2015)
Michael Pena - Ant-Man
Sebastian Stan - Captain America: Civil War
Benedict Wong - Doctor Strange
Here’s an older thread on a similar subject (was for any comic book movies, not just Marvel.)
