Robert Downey Jr. is the best Marvel actor in history, according to fans
The Ranker site, specialized in lists and rankings made with the public vote, has released a ranking of the best actors in Marvel movies in a very timely manner, while Avengers: Infinity War sweeps the box office.
Among the candidates are all the actors who ever played a character originated in Marvel comics, and although obviously due to the degree of popularity and presence those of the Marvel Cinematic Universe have the advantage, in the vote there are also actors from sagas such as X-Men, Deadpool, Fantastic Four, Spider-Man, and other titles like Blade and Ghost Rider.
The vote clearly reflects the popularity of some characters, so in the top places are the actors who played Tony Stark / Iron Man, Professor Charles Xavier and Wolverine; respectively, Robert Downey Jr., James McAvoy and Hugh Jackman.
But it should also be noted that in some cases the position in the ranking corresponds in a way to the "status" of an actor and his career, as is the case with the inclusion of Tommy Lee Jones (Chester Phillips in Captain America: The First Avenger ), JK Simmons (J. Jonah Jameson in Sam Raimi's Spider-Man trilogy) or Hugo Weaving (Red Skull in Captain America: The First Avenger) in the top 10, despite having played supporting characters.
Within the first 10 also enter Tom Hiddleston (Loki) and Chris Evans (Steve Rogers), and Scarlett Johansson (Natasha Romanoff) as the only female representative (Sally Field, Aunt May in The Amazing Spider-Man 1 and 2, appears in position 15).
The top 10 is completed with Stan Lee, the star of Marvel cameos.
