but they will be remember for their most popular role/character. example when people think of Arnold Schwarzenegger's famous role, Terminator will be everyone first choice. yes these actors had multiple roles but this video talks about their iconic character...
I agree, never saw Murphy as The Nutty Professor; he'll always be Axel Foley to me, esp as there is a series of Beverly Hills Cop movies and only 1 Nutty Professor.
Yeah, Red is kind of the like the least expected that Morgan Freeman would be remember for. Like it would either 3 characters of his, Shawshank Redemption, Playing the secretary/president in 3 of the so call "Fallen" films or God from Bruce Almighty and Evan Almighty. oh I forgot about the Dark Knight Trilogy movies that he was in too.
@jgw5491 yeah I think the movies I referenced that has Morgan Freeman in are the most recognizable that Morgan Freeman has been in, Red despite only having 2 films, Morgan Freeman is only in the first film and sometimes I even forget he was the Red movie.
I think that's what they tried to put there, as Red is what he's called (probably because he's Irish), but they put some other photo that has nothing to do with him. Goes to show Morgan Freeman is hardly someone you can pigeonhole in ONE role.
Russel Crowe as Maximus Decimus Meridius, Commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions, loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius.
It depends sometimes on the viewer. Younger people will remember Keanu Reeves more as John Wick because they may not be familiar to the Matrix, for example. The same with Johnny Depp as Edward Scissors Hands or Jack Sparrow.
I will forever remember Robin Williams in 'Mork and Mindy' and in 'Popeye' (the movie/musical). Actually I have been a fan of Robin Williams since 1979.
He's made TONS of movies, and even people who don't like him have at least one role of his they enjoy. To give him just The Genie...come on. (If you watched it in a foreign country, as I did, then you didn't even KNOW that was him until the DVD finally let you watch it in English, since Disney only released dubbed versions here)
a lot of these actors are not really famous for playing ONE character. a large chunk of them are famous for playing two or three characters. Robin Williams Mike Myers Eddie Murphy Morgan Freeman Chrisotpher Lee Bruce Willis Samule L. Jackson Benedict Cumberbatch Harrison Ford Keanu Reeves Arnold They are all famous for playing at least 3 popular characters.
should add more like Gerald Butler as Leonidas , Bredan Fraser as Rick Oconnell , Bryan Cranston as Walter White , Giancarlo Esposito as Gus Fring, Norman Reedus as Daryl Dixon , Jeffery Dean Morgan as Negan , Vin Diesel as Dominic Torreto , Marlon Brando as Vito
One piece of advice I will give you, when you meet these actors and have the opportunity to talk to them, avoid talking only about these emblematic characters, say that you liked other characters that this actor has played in his career (preferably mention the names of these other characters and also the films in which they appear). In their professional class (Performing Arts) a good actor is considered one who is a chameleon, one who can play several characters and change completely between one character and another. And another thing, although some actors are very arrogant and others are not, the vast majority of them are not the boss in their profession, their boss is the film director (like Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, Christopher Nolan), if you find a director In cinema the advice is the same, talk about more than one film he produced in his career... but don't be invasive, remember that they are human beings of flesh and blood like you and me, everyone has the right to their own privacy, sometimes people just want to spend time with their family or rest at home, on a beach, relax, etc.
Most of these actors are chameleon actors who are known for various different roles. I feel like this was made by someone who hasn’t seen a lot of their movies.
A number of them can only play certain type of characters. Keanu Reeves, Arnold, Sylster, Tom Selleck. Robin Williams was a bit hard to describe, he was a good actor, but he had bad luck playing serious characters, all the movies with him in serious roles are flops.
Should’ve had Chuck Norris as Cordell Walker, James Earl Jones as the voice of Darth Vader, Jason Alexander as George Costanza, Bryan Cranston as Walter White, Dennis Franz as Andy Spiowicz, Patrick Stewart as Captain Picard, and Charlie Day as Charlie Kelly
some of the men have been fortunate to have multiple roles that they will always be remembered for Sylvester Stallone,rocky Rambo & barney in expendables, Robin Williams ,More & Mindy,Mrs. Doubtfire & the Genie, Bruce Willis, die hard, & Red Johnny Depp, Tom Hanson 21 jump street, Edward Scissorhands,Willy Wonka,Madd Hatter,Grindewald & captain Jack Sparrow!!!! & Morgan Freeman will always be remembered for his distinctive voice in my opinion!!!! so every movie he made was great!!!!
Two things I am surprised of: Morgan freemans famous role isn't God and Bryan Cranston wasn't on the list even though his most iconic role was Walter White.
Adriaan Paul - Duncan Mclaud Arnold Vosloo - Imhotep Patrick Stewart - Jean-Luc Picard Brent Spiner - Data Sigourney Weaver - Ripley Patrick Stewart - Charles Xavier Lucy Lawless - Xena Kevin Sorbo - Hercules Richard Dean Anderson - MacGyver Christopher Judge - Tealc Jason Momoa - Aquaman Richard Dean Anderson - Jack O'Neil
For Rowan Atkinson, I try my best to forget Mr Bean, and prefer to remember the sublime brilliance of Blackadder, especially in the later iterations...
Robin Williams' best role for me is Sean McGuire in "Good Will Hunting." I also love Benjamin L. Aguilar for his portrayal of "Dante Torres" on Chicago Pd.
4:41 As far as I know Dwayne Johnson is popular in many movies. Like from The Mummy Returns, The Game Plan, Get Smart, Tooth Fairy, the Fast & Furious movie series, Central Intelligence, Jumanji movie series, and Black Adam. From what I’ve personally watched, he can be a central character in any movie he is known for, so his nick name Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is not a character he plays.
Lots missed off this list Larry Hagman JR Ewing Hayden Christensen Anakin Skywalker Ian McDermaid The Emperor Michelle Pfieffer Cat Woman Sarah Jessica Parker Carie Bradshaw Jennifer Aniston Rachel Carie Fisher Princess Leia Robert England Freddy Kruger
I just want to say that on UA-cam I can watch your videos without clicking on it maybe you won't get paid for that so I just wanted to tell you in case you didn't know that people could do that. I feel like you definitely should get paid for your hard work😣.
Keanu Reeves - Neo, John Wick, John Constantine, Ted Logan, Clint Eastwood - Dirty Harry, Man With No Name, Arnold Schwarzenegger - Conan, The Terminator, Dwayne Johnson - Scorpion King, Luke Hobb, Moana Jason Statham - Deckard Shaw, Frank Martin Jim Carrey - The Mask, Ace Ventura, Bruce Almighty, Dr Robotrix Jason Momoa - Aquaman
I can understand that this is based on the opinions of a single individual, so I'll agree with about 75% of these choices. One thing I'll say is that although Dwayne Johnson is known as the "Rock", it is not a role he played outside of the ring. He literally is the Rock, Dwayne the "Rock" Johnson. You could have at least gone with him as being the Rock known as the Scorpion King, or Dr. Bravestone.
I'm sorry but in my opinion Sylvester Stallone will always be known for Rocky more than Rambo
Thank you for the input provided 💙🤍
Nooo ...to me Rambo more than rocky...simply beautiful I never watched ROCKY😊
It a tie
I came to the comments just to say this!
Nah, Sylvester Stallone IS Rocky by both creation and depiction.
But the list focuses on roles that were given to actors who won the part.
Harrison Ford- Han Solo, Sylvester Stallone-Rocky, Tom Cruise-Maverick, Eddie Murphy- Axel Foley, Robin Williams-Mork
benedict Cumberbatch should also be dr. Strange.
They shouldn't even be in this list since they are not known for only one character
I Like B. C. in 'Star Trek: Into Darkness'. @@rozzbourn3653
For me David Hasselhoff- Mitch Buchannon
Yep, I was expecting Eddie Murphy to be best known as Axel Foley.
Benedict Cumberpatch will be Dr Strange and Christopher Lee will be Count Dooku
He's more iconic as Dracula or Saruman
He's has plenty of iconic roles across generations. It's nearly an insult to just label him as Dracula.
Depends on the age of the person you ask because his career was over a fifty plus year period
A lot of these actors will be remembered for numerous roles
but they will be remember for their most popular role/character. example when people think of Arnold Schwarzenegger's famous role, Terminator will be everyone first choice. yes these actors had multiple roles but this video talks about their iconic character...
Eddie Murphy is known more for Axel Foley in Beverly Hills Cop than Sherman Klump in The Nutty Professor
Thank you for the input provided
I agree, never saw Murphy as The Nutty Professor; he'll always be Axel Foley to me, esp as there is a series of Beverly Hills Cop movies and only 1 Nutty Professor.
@@anitaanderson2871 Two actually.
Or dr Dolittle
Donkey from Shrek
I love how Dwayne Johnson is just himself
I off the top of my head I can't name a single character he played that is Iconic... just The Rock
Morgan Freeman, I'm remembering him as God from Bruce Almighty
Yeah, Red is kind of the like the least expected that Morgan Freeman would be remember for. Like it would either 3 characters of his, Shawshank Redemption, Playing the secretary/president in 3 of the so call "Fallen" films or God from Bruce Almighty and Evan Almighty.
oh I forgot about the Dark Knight Trilogy movies that he was in too.
@@couldnoticEllis "Red" from Shawshank.
Yes! Freeman is GOD in my head.
@jgw5491 yeah I think the movies I referenced that has Morgan Freeman in are the most recognizable that Morgan Freeman has been in, Red despite only having 2 films, Morgan Freeman is only in the first film and sometimes I even forget he was the Red movie.
Have you seen 'Driving Ms. Daisy' or 'Lean on Me'? @@couldnotic
Rambo has no staying power but Rocky is immortal. Morgan Freeman will easily be remembered for Ellis in Shawshank Redemption.
Yeah, that is probably Morgan Freeman's key role, but damn! I loved him as God in "Bruce Almighty".
@@jgw5491 the real point is that good entertainers, no matter what they do, can bring some joy and at times enrichment to our lives.
I think that's what they tried to put there, as Red is what he's called (probably because he's Irish), but they put some other photo that has nothing to do with him. Goes to show Morgan Freeman is hardly someone you can pigeonhole in ONE role.
I beg your pardon, but Eddie Murphy should be most known for Axel Foley.
Actually, I think The Donkey from Shrek is his most iconic role
No, he's DON-KEH
It's what he's best known for. Seriously, why go with the nutty professor?
That's Captain Jack Sparrow.
Russel Crowe as Maximus Decimus Meridius, Commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions, loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius.
Father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife, and he WILL have his revenge, in this life or the next.
Orlando bloom also remembered for playing Will turner in POTC
Tobey Maguire will always be the friendly neighborhood Spider Man
It depends sometimes on the viewer. Younger people will remember Keanu Reeves more as John Wick because they may not be familiar to the Matrix, for example. The same with Johnny Depp as Edward Scissors Hands or Jack Sparrow.
Sly is Rocky to me.
Agreed
He is BOTH
Sly is always Rocky.
Jaleel White as Steve Urkel from the TV series "Family Matters" deserves a mention.
Yeah
First thing that comes to mind about Robin Williams is Peter Pan.
Mine was Miss. Doubtfire
Mrs. Doubtfire for me.
Mork
Jumanji for me
Aladdin
Peter Cullen: Optimus Prime
I will forever remember Robin Williams in 'Mork and Mindy' and in 'Popeye' (the movie/musical). Actually I have been a fan of Robin Williams since 1979.
Seemed like a great guy to hang out with
I have seen 31 movies that Robin Williams have been in.
Mine . Mr. Doubtfire.
He's made TONS of movies, and even people who don't like him have at least one role of his they enjoy. To give him just The Genie...come on. (If you watched it in a foreign country, as I did, then you didn't even KNOW that was him until the DVD finally let you watch it in English, since Disney only released dubbed versions here)
Carl Weathers...
Apollo Creed & Dillon
Very underrated actor. Part of my childhood.
agree, I was pissed when they killed him off in rocky 4
a lot of these actors are not really famous for playing ONE character.
a large chunk of them are famous for playing two or three characters.
Robin Williams
Mike Myers
Eddie Murphy
Morgan Freeman
Chrisotpher Lee
Bruce Willis
Samule L. Jackson
Benedict Cumberbatch
Harrison Ford
Keanu Reeves
Arnold
They are all famous for playing at least 3 popular characters.
Tom Cruise and Leonardo DiCaprio are the world's most famous actors.
Rowan Atkinson as Edmund Blackadder. 😅
Johnny English
Mr bean too
Edna!
All of you from UK and white commonwealth countries?
I like how around half the actors in this list have more than one character that they are known for.
Jack Black would be better known as Po from Kung Fu Panda than as Nacho
As for Christopher Lee, it’s either Saruman or Count Dooku
I was thinking the exact same thing with Jack Black
Saruman for sure, count dooku not so much
Or Scaramanga, for Bond fans.
Jumanji
And harrison ford will be known for Hans solo
American Graffiti. 😊
Not really
should add more like Gerald Butler as Leonidas , Bredan Fraser as Rick Oconnell , Bryan Cranston as Walter White , Giancarlo Esposito as Gus Fring, Norman Reedus as Daryl Dixon , Jeffery Dean Morgan as Negan , Vin Diesel as Dominic Torreto , Marlon Brando as Vito
Christopher Lambert as Connor McLeod.
Alan Rickman as Professor Severus Snape
@sr.m8641 SAY HELLO TO LIL FRIEND!
I will always know Harrison Ford more as Han Solo
Ill always remember Cillian Murphy as creepy guy in “Red Eye” and creepy guy “Scarecrow” from Batman Beginsz 😂😂😂😂😂
Now is oppenheimer

Finally someone else recognizes Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones more than Han Solo.
I’ll remember Hopkins as Odin from the Thor movies
4:15 shrek and donkey
I love Daniel Radcliffe.😊😉🤭🌟😝
I agree, dwayne jhonson is remembered as himself
Yeah 😂
I think Christopher Lee is better known for Sauron the White. Have to agree about Rambo better known as Rocky.
I was about to say the same thing about Christopher Lee, but the first thing I think of when seeing Stallone is Rambo.
You mispelled Count Dooku
It's Saruman not Sauron that's his boss
IMO Keanu reaves will always be remembered for “John Wick”.
Not to mention "Ted 'Theodore' Logan."
My thoughts exactly 😊
Depends.
No beard Keanu Reeves = Neo
Bearded Keanu Reeves = JW
@@Sh4gzztrue lmao
The goalie in Youngblood
Tony Stark i miss 🥺🥺
Robert Downy Jr ❤❤
Should’ve had Chuck Norris as Cordell Walker, James Earl Jones as the voice of Darth Vader, Jason Alexander as George Costanza, Bryan Cranston as Walter White, Dennis Franz as Andy Spiowicz, Patrick Stewart as Captain Picard, and Charlie Day as Charlie Kelly
Carrie Fisher (RIP) will always be remembered by me as the lady who played Princess Leia.
Christopher Lee as Count Dooku, Eddie Murphy as Prince of Zamunda and Billy Ray Valentine, Keanu Reeves as John Wick, Robin Williams as Alan Parrish
Keanu will always be remembered as both Neo and John Wick ❤
some of the men have been fortunate to have multiple roles that they will always be remembered for Sylvester Stallone,rocky Rambo & barney in expendables, Robin Williams ,More & Mindy,Mrs. Doubtfire & the Genie, Bruce Willis, die hard, & Red Johnny Depp, Tom Hanson 21 jump street, Edward Scissorhands,Willy Wonka,Madd Hatter,Grindewald & captain Jack Sparrow!!!! & Morgan Freeman will always be remembered for his distinctive voice in my opinion!!!! so every movie he made was great!!!!
I'll always remember cillian Murphy for Jim in 28 days later and dr Johnathan crane/scarecrow in the dark Knight trilogy
I know him from 28 days later
We need another video like this.
I think leonardo also would be remembered as the *WOLF OF THE WALL STREET aka JORDAN BELFORT*
Christopher Lee as Bond villain Scaramanga😮
Ah yes, my favorite character, Steve Rogersv.
Two things I am surprised of:
Morgan freemans famous role isn't God and Bryan Cranston wasn't on the list even though his most iconic role was Walter White.
Without Johnny Depp, there's no Pirates of the Caribbean!

For me, Chris Pratt will always be known as the guy who played Owen Grady in the three Jurassic World movies.
I once called Jack Sparrow "Edward Scissorhands"
Keanu is and will always be John Wick to me.
Christopher Lee as Dracula?!? Umm hello?!
Count Dooku?
Saruman?
I’m just surprised, Mark Hamill is not listed as the joker that’s pretty surprising💀💀
He's only voice actor for the joker, he never actually played the joker
Fxck mark Hamill 😅😅😅he just voiced the joker😅😅he did not play the live-action role😂😂😂heath is the nest joker in history❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Shia LaBeouf will always be remembered as Sam Witwicky.

Samuel L. Jackson - Jules Winnfield
Robin Williams - Mork
Clint Eastwood - Dirty Harry Callahan or Man With No Name?
There’s so many more actors who you could add to this list for their roles they’d be remembered for
Bond is complicated since it had lot of actor
If the ones should chosen
It should be Sean Connery
(1961-1967, 1970-1971 and 1982-1983)
Agreed
I think we missed some people.
Niel Patrick is Count Olaf. Tobin Bell is Jigsaw. And Donald Sutherland is President Snow.
NOOO MY FAVOURITE ACTOR WASN’T ON THE LIST (Skandar Keynes)
Robin Williams was also known as Mok from the comedy Mork&Mindy also starring Pam Dawson!
Love black panther 🖤
😭 1:35 ✊🏻💔
4:40 why you broke my heart two times ? 😭😭😭😭
Most of these I agree on. Christopher Reeve will always be Superman. In fact I always call him Superman even when he’s in other movies.
I remember Robin Williams for a lot of live action roles he did.. for example
Mrs doubtfire
Alan Parrish
Theodore Roosevelt
Peter Pan
Etc
Yes
Sylvestrer Staline-Rocky Balboa
John Travolta-Tony Manero
Mario Moreno-Cantinflas
Javier Lopez- Chavelo
Gastar Enaine- Capulina

What this video doesn’t mentioned is that James Earl Jones will be most remembered as the voice of Darth Vader.
Cillian Murphy will be remembered more as Oppenheimer after the movie.
Benedict C with Sherlock Holmes? Harrison Ford with Indiana Jones? Are you killing me? This guys are always Doctor Strange and Han Solo in my heart 🙏
