Sir Ian- Magneto & Gandalf.
Christopher Lee - Saruman, Count Dooku


Count Dracula would be a big one for Christopher Lee.

He and Ian McKellan both came to mind immediately

Is his role in Unbreakable really that iconic? I would put his roles in 5th Element, Armageddon, and evening Pulp Fiction over that. Not even his most memorable Shaymalan role, 6th Sense.

One that hasn't been mentioned yet is Mel Gibson. Brace heart, Lethal Weapon, Mad Max.

The thread specified franchises and 5th Element, Armageddon and Pulp Fiction are not franchises.

That's what I was aiming toward, but I probably did a crappy job explaining it.

Bruce Willis played Bruce Willis in Aramageddon. I'm pretty sure he went back in post and dubbed in the words "Harry Stamper" a few times.

Quote:

What actors would you say played two or more iconic movie roles or anchored two franchises.
Iconic movie roles were allowed.

But for 2 franchise anchors:

Mike Myers - Shrek, Austin Powers, Wayne's World

Eddie - 48 Hours, Beverly Hills Cop, Shrek

Ben Stiller - Night at the Museum, Zoolander, Meet the Parents

Chris Pratt - Lego Movies, Jurassic World

Jim Carrey -- Dumb and Dumber, Ace Ventura

OP said franchises or iconic movie role
and then listed 2 actors with roles that are recurring in a series

Whats the point in just listing actors that had iconic characters. Might as well just list every actor that ever existed
