8 Actors Who Have Played Multiple Superheroes

It's hard to imagine now, but can you remember a time when talking racoons and Asgardian gods didn't rule the box office, a time when Robert Downey Jr. wasn't a bankable star and Christopher Reeves was the only Superman worth thinking about?

7) Ellen Page (Shadowcat/Boltie)

In contrast to Halle Berry, Ellen Page was nominated for an Oscar, but never won, which probably explains why the pint-sized actress is still capable of actually making good movies. Page’s most famous superhero part is the role of Kitty Pryde, a mutant who can move through solid objects and apparently send people back in time. X-Men: Days of Future Past may have been a great movie, but the plot itself contains more holes than the Human Centipede.

Page’s role in the indie Super may be less familiar to mainstream audiences, but fans who have actually seen James Gunn’s movie will find it hard to forget Boltie, the deranged comic book store clerk who joins the Crimson Bolt on his crusade. Anyone who thought Page was cute or charming in Juno needs to watch Super, just to see the psychotic depths that her character reaches. Also, that costume!
