15 Times Actors Playing Supporting Characters Looked Better Than The Main Heroes

While movie business is always greatly dependent upon casting great looking actors in key roles, there are times that the studio executives and movie makers have to make major and complicated decisions while casting actor for superhero movies, especially since these actors are likely to play the particular character in a number of films spread across many years. This also means that they have to cast actors who not only look like the character but, they also need to have the desired acting talent to go with the looks. Not only that, these actors must be extremely dependable and physically right, since they are the ones who will draw the audiences into the theatres. The actors have to be as identical to the comic book character as possible, and they have to be in top physical shape. Once the decision-makers cast their leading characters, they go ahead and cast all the supporting roles in the superhero film.

This is where, surprisingly, some of the supporting actors, many of whom have a tiny role, turn out to be a lot more good-looking than the leading cast of the film. In fact, there are occasions that you might not even remember about these actors having played a role in a popular superhero film, simply because the role played by these actors was very brief.
