Which comic book movie actor is best suited to their role?

What has been the best casting choice for a CBM character? No one's perfect, but who comes closest?

Ones that come to mind for me

• RDJ as Stark
• Perlman as Hellboy
• Stewart as Prof X
• Rourke as Marv
• Weaving as V
• JDM as The Comedian
• Devito as Penguin
• Marsden as Cyclops
• Snipes as Blade

Edit

• Simmons as Jameson
• Affleck as Bats
• Cavill as Supes
• Evans as Cap

We had a perfect comic book movies actor, and his name was J.K Simons.

@sanitrize1999: Word.

JK Simmons was literally perfect as J. Jonah Jameson. You're not gonna a find a more perfect Actor/CBM character combination.

Well, maybe Patrick Stewart as Charles Xavier. Then Hugh as Wolverine.

Seconded

@sanitrize1999: ah yes good one

Thirded.

Evans as Cap.

Stewart and RDJ

But obviously Chris Evans

You missed

• Hugh Jackman as Wolverin
• Chloë Grace Moretz as Hit Girl
• Willem Dafoe as Green Goblin
• Charlie Cox as Daredevil
• Robin Talor as The Penguin
• Christopher Reeves as Superman
• Tom Elis as Lucifer
• Viggo Mortensen as Tom Stall / Joey Cusack
• Jim Carrey as The Mask
• John Malkovich as Marvin Boggs
• James McAvoy as Wesley Gibson
• Taron Egerton as Gary "Eggsy" Unwin
• Heath Ledger as The Joker
• J.K Simons as J. Jonah Jameson
• Chris Evans as Captain America

Patrick Stewart as Charles Xavier.

@jb681131: hmm some not bad shouts in there but i don't see any of them as close to perfection. there's many people who i see as very good casting choices but no more than that. imo no one on your list fully nailed it in every way, in terms of being the complete embodiment of said character. apart from simons.

@jb681131:

James was not a perfect Wesley. Wesley was based on Eminem.

All the Alfreds are good.

• Hugh Jackman as Wolverine
• Heath Ledger as Joker
• Robert Downey Jr. as Iron Man
• Patrick Stewart as Professor X
• Christopher Reeve as Superman
• Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn
• Chris Hemsworth as Thor
• Michael Fassbender as Magneto
• J.K. Simmons as J.Jonah Jameson
• Michael Caine as Alfred

@tdk_1997: This

• Patrick Stewart as Professor X
• Hugh Jackman as Wolverine
• JK Simmons as J Jonah Jameson
• Christopher Reeve as Superman
• Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool
• Robert Downey Jr as Iron Man
• Jim Carrey as The Mask
• Chloë Grace Moretz as Hit Girl
• Kevin Conroy as Batman
• Mark Hamill as The Joker

Oh, s**t, I forgot about Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool. This is for me my third all-time favorite casting for a CBM.

Chris Evans as Captain America (Plays the part so perfectly it defies all logic)

Hugh Jackman as Wolverine (Same as Evans for Cap)

Robert Downey JR as Iron-Man

Patrick Stewart as Professor X

Michael Fassbender as Magneto

Henry Cavill as Superman (He may not have been given the opportunity to act the part to it's full potential but he looks like he was ripped straight from the comics)

Ben Affleck as Batman (Barring the killing)

Michael Shannon as Zod

Tom Hiddleston as Loki

JK Simmons as J. Jonah Jameson

Edward Norton as Bruce Banner (Avengers Hulk is better but Norton IS Banner)

Hugo Weaving as Red Skull

Snipes as Blade

Stewart as Xavier

heath's joker is great, my fav interpretation along hamill, but perfect incarnation of the CB? no imo. so difficult to recreate

Val kilmer as batman of course...

All of them are cool minus Cavill as Snyderman

Jackman as Wolverine
