Evans also featured prominently in the adaptation of the Oni Press comic book Scott Pilgrim vs the World, making him an all-around comic book guy. Elba also took part in the MCU as the ever-watchful Asgardian Heimdall while moonlighting in a non-Marvel Studios sequel to Ghost Rider.
Tim Story's bland-but-harmless Fantastic Four films were something of a commercial breakthrough for Evans, who parlayed that fame into landing the part of Steve Rogers/Captain America in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, a.k.a. Here's a case of two well-regarded actors appearing in a failed adaptation of a Vertigo title ( The Losers) only to BOTH wind up playing two different characters within the Marvel Universe. MARVEL MOVIES: Fantastic Four (2005), Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer (2007), Captain America: The First Avenger (2011), Thor (2011), The Avengers (2012), Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance (2012), Thor: The Dark World (2013), Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014), Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015), Captain America: Civil War (2016) Ditto for the butchering of Wade Wilson/Deadpool in the Wolverine spin-off, although it looks like he's finally done the character proud in next year's Deadpool. He proved his kiss of death was not limited to the Marvel Universe by starring in the ill-fated Green Lantern film, although the blame can hardly fall entirely on his shoulders. How many different superheroes can one man play? That seems to be the challenge Ryan Reynolds has put himself up to, starting with Hannibal King of the Nightstalkers in the reprehensible Blade Trinity. MARVEL MOVIES: Blade Trinity (2004), X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009), Deadpool (2016) Of course, when Singer came back to the mutant franchise in 2014 he fixed that mistake through the dramatic Wite-Out that is time travel. Fox must not have liked that, which might be why Scott Summers dies with little fanfare in X-Men: The Last Stand. Bryan Singer sure seems to like him, since he brought his Cyclops from the X-Men films over to DC when he jumped ship for Superman Returns. Marsden is one of those truly underrated performers who has nailed dramatic roles in The Notebook and The Box while also parodying his whole pretty boy image in comedies like Enchanted and Anchorman 2. MARVEL MOVIES: X-Men (2000), X2: X-Men United (2003), X-Men: The Last Stand (2006), X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014) So far his seasoned, middle-aged Bruce Wayne and Frank Miller-inspired Batsuit are making fanboys squeal with delight, so lets hope his two outings next year as the Caped Crusader do him justice. Heck, he even brought it up in his Oscar acceptance speech for Argo! Daredevil is considered one of the lowest points of that dark time, and now that he's found a new groove in hits like Gone Girl, he wants a second stab at superhero stardom by taking up the mantle of The Batman in the DC Extended Universe.
Much has been made of how much Ben Affleck screwed the early years of his career up. DC MOVIES: Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016), Suicide Squad (2016)
