Which Actor Was Perfectly Cast in a Comic Book Movie?

Our mission at SAW is to foster conversations about this thing we all love (or love to hate): film/TV. Many of our features are designed with you in mind. Your opinions, to be more to the point. You have ’em. We want to hear ’em.

Question of the Day (QOTD) is exactly what it sounds like. It’s a film/TV-related question that we put to you, the reader. The comments section below is like the feedback box at work; except, in this example, we actually read what you write and care about what you have to say.


When actors get cast to play characters in comic book movies, sometimes it can seem as if they were born to play that specific role.

So, the question I ask today is: Which actor was perfectly cast in a comic book movie?


Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen are the spitting image of Charles Xavier and Magneto. It’s almost as if these two actors were born these roles, they may as well have been pulled straight from the page. They are so perfectly cast, it’s not just strange … it’s uncanny.

(I’ll see myself out.)


So what about you, screenagers? Which actor was perfectly cast in a comic book movie?

I’ll see you in the trenches.
