The Marvel Cinematic Universe boasts some of the greatest actors working in modern Hollywood. For many of them, however, their work outside the confines of the MCU are just as superheroic.
The vast and expansive Marvel Cinematic Universe franchise has recruited countless actors into its ranks. But the MCU isn’t all-encompassing, and thus many Marvel stars have done impressive work outside the MCU. Here are 35 of the greatest movies with Marvel actors that aren’t Marvel movies.

33. Mississippi Grind (2015) with Ben Mendelsohn and Ryan Reynolds

With Deadpool & Wolverine, Ryan Reynolds is officially a Marvel Cinematic Universe icon. But a year before Reynolds wore the red spandex of Deadpool, he was in the 2015 comedy-drama Mississippi Grind, co-starring with another soon-to-be Marvel star Ben Mendelsohn, who plays Talos in Captain Marvel and Secret Invasion. The movie sees the two men play gamblers who hit the road to enter a high-stakes poker game in New Orleans. (Imagine The Color of Money with poker, basically.) The movie’s MCU connections go further, being the movie that filmmakers Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck did prior to directing Captain Marvel.
32. Unbreakable (2000) with Samuel L. Jackson

Before he was Nick Fury, Samuel L. Jackson was Mr. Glass. In M. Night Shyamalan’s acclaimed cerebral thriller Unbreakable, Bruce Willis plays a family man who discovers he might have incredible superpowers. Jackson co-stars in the movie as Elijah Price, aka “Mr. Glass,” an enigmatic art collector and comic book fanatic who is obsessed with Willis' latent gifts. Released the same year X-Men blew up at the box office, Shyamalan’s movie feels like it foresaw the next few decades of mainstream cinema and came early to offer something totally different.

31. Challengers (2024) with Zendaya
(Image credit: Amazon MGM Studios)
In the MCU, Zendaya is Spider-Man’s girlfriend. But in Luca Guadagnino’s Challengers, she’s the villain. Centered around a steamy love triangle of highly competitive tennis pros, Challengers chronicles the broken friendship of Patrick (Josh O’Connor) and Art (Mike Faist). Starting from their tight-knit bond in college to their estrangement in adulthood, the men compete in a low-stakes regional tennis match. Victory on the court isn’t what’s on the line, however, but their own worth in front of the calculating and ambitious Tashi Donaldson (Zendaya), herself a once-promising tennis star until a bad injury stalled her career.
30. Much Ado About Nothing (2012) with Clark Gregg
(Image credit: Lionsgate)
In 2011, while on vacation from post-production of what would become one of the highest-grossing movies of all time – 2012’s The Avengers – writer/director Joss Whedon indulged his Shakespearean fandom with his micro-budget movie Much Ado About Nothing. Essentially a home video version of The Bard’s romantic comedy, the black and white picture stars many of Whedon’s own friends from in and around Hollywood and is filmed inside his actual California home. Among the movie’s stars is Clark Gregg, whose supporting role as Agent Coulson in The Avengers gives the team their name. After The Avengers, Gregg spent several years starring in Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D..
29. Wind River (2017) with Jeremy Renner and Elizabeth Olsen

28. Rush (2013) with Chris Hemsworth and Daniel Brühl
(Image credit: Universal Pictures)
Ever wanted to see Thor and Baron Zemo race on the fast lane? Then check out Ron Howard’s blistering sports drama Rush. Released in 2013, the movie dramatizes the real-life rivalry between Formula One racers James Hunt and Niki Lauda circa 1976. Hemsworth stars as the brash and showy James Hunt, from Britain, who challenges the methodical, focused veteran from Austria, Lauda (Brühl) to claim the top spot of their game. Rush reveals how their machismo rivalry takes on dangerous degrees of severity before ultimately ending in mutual respect.
27. Parachute (2024) with Dave Bautista

26. Widows (2018) with Elizabeth Debicki, Carrie Coon, Daniel Kaluuya, and Brian Tyree Henry
(Image credit: 20th Century Studios)
Widows, Steve McQueen’s muscular remake of a classic British TV show, sports an array of different Marvel actors, but the movie is good enough to warrant its own attention. The movie centers around a group of Chicago women who work to steal millions from a local politician in order to pay their late husbands' debt to a crime boss. Elizabeth Debicki, who stars in the Guardians of the Galaxy movies, leads the movie with Brian Tyree Henry (Eternals), Daniel Kaluuya (Black Panther), and Carrie Coon (the voice of Thanos minion Proxima Midnight).
25. Room (2015) with Brie Larson

24. Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (2011) with Benedict Cumberbatch

23. The Before Trilogy (1995-2013) with Ethan Hawke
(Image credit: Columbia Pictures)
Beforehe was the villain of Moon Knight (get it?), Ethan Hawke was a wandering romantic in Richard Linklater’s revered Before Trilogy. Spanning three movies across three decades – Before Sunrise (1995), Before Sunset (2004), and Before Midnight (2013) – Hawke plays an American traveler who falls for a beautiful French student (Julie Delpy) while on a train to Vienna. The first movie follows the two on a sweeping night of spontaneous romance before vowing to meet one year later. The sequel Before Sunset stages their reunion in Paris after nearly a decade, and years after their first promised reunion. The final movie Before Midnight sees how their lives have ended up together. Among the most romantic movies ever made, Hawke shines as a handsome lead, showing range beyond his cult leader antagonist in the Marvel series.
22. Annihilation (2018) with Natalie Portman, Tessa Thompson, Benedict Wong, and Oscar Isaac
(Image credit: Paramount Pictures)
In 2018, Jeff VanderMeer’s novel Annihilation (the first in his Southern Reach book series) hit the screen with Thor star Natalie Portman along with a slew of other Marvel veterans. Portman plays one of several female scientists who enter a dangerous quarantined zone known as “The Shimmer,” a sprawling forest area brimming with mutant alien fauna. Also from the MCU are Tessa Thompson (Portman’s co-star in Thor: Love and Thunder), Benedict Wong (from the Doctor Strange and Avengers movies), and Oscar Isaac, who starred in the Marvel series Moon Knight in 2022.
21. Stardust (2007) with Charlie Cox, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Ben Barnes
(Image credit: Paramount Global)
The cult romantic fantasy Stardust, based on the Neil Gaiman novel, happens to feature quite a few Marvel actors before they were ever in the MCU. Set in 19th century England, the movie follows young Tristan (Daredevil’s Charlie Cox) as he seeks a fallen star to impress his crush only to find that the star in question is herself a beautiful young woman, Yvaine (Claire Danes). Recurring Ant-Man star Michelle Pfeiffer plays the lead villain Lamia, part of a trio of witch sisters, while The Punisher’s Ben Barnes has a minor role as the younger version of Tristan’s father. A cool bonus: From the DCEU, Man of Steel’s Henry Cavill also appears as Tristan’s romantic rival, the studly Humphrey.
20. Birdman (2014) with Michael Keaton and Edward Norton
(Image credit: Fox Searchlight Pictures)
In the immediate aftermath of The Avengers, the impact of the Marvel Cinematic Universe was hard to ignore. Feeling that fatigue quite early, Mexican director Alejandro González Iñárritu teamed up with Michael Keaton – still remembered for his Batman movies – to deliver Birdman, an experimental dark comedy that follows the emotional breakdown of a has-been star of a fictional superhero film series as he attempts a career comeback on Broadway. While the movie is remembered for its novel form as one long continuous take, Birdman muses over the might of commercial intellectual property over art with perspective. The movie also stars Edward Norton, who played the Hulk (in 2008’s The Incredible Hulk) before being recast, while Keaton himself later starred in Spider-Man: Homecoming as another winged character, Vulture.

15. Natural Born Killers (1994) with Robert Downey Jr. and Tommy Lee Jones
(Image credit: Warner Bros. Discovery)
While Oliver Stone’s media satire/crime movie Natural Born Killers drew polarizing reviews in 1994, it has enjoyed reappraisal as a movie so prescient in the media’s inordinate power to turn dangerous figures into public personas. The movie stars Woody Harrelson and Juliette Lewis as a sort of 1990s Bonnie and Clyde – runaway outlaws and killers who roam America while becoming celebrities thanks to media sensationalism. Iron Man’s Robert Downey Jr. plays a major role in the movie as Wayne Gale, a tabloid TV host whose coverage of Harrelson and Lewis' criminal anti-heroes ruin the American psyche. RDJ has done countless great movies in his career, from Chaplin to Zodiac to Tropic Thunder to Oppenheimer, but his performance as a slimy media personality makes Natural Born Killers deserving of outstanding mention.
14. Inside Llewyn Davis (2013) with Oscar Isaac
(Image credit: Paramount Global)
Before he suited up as the troubled superhero Moon Knight, Oscar Isaac picked up his guitar and strummed through the hardships of life in the Coen Brothers' modern classic Inside Llewyn Davis. Set around the last gasp of the folk revival in 1960s New York City, Isaac plays aspiring folk singer Llewyn Davis who travels to Chicago and back, hoping to find the success and peace that eludes him. Inside Llewyn Davis turned Oscar Isaac into an overnight movie star, catapulting his profile for good. Though he had an unpopular performance as the villain Apocalypse in the 2016 movie X-Men: Apocalypse, Isaac found real footing in the MCU proper in his starring role in theDisney+ series Moon Knight.
13. Prisoners (2013) with Hugh Jackman and Jake Gyllenhaal
(Image credit: Warner Bros. Discovery)
Hugh Jackman: Wolverine. Jake Gyllenhaal: Mysterio. These characters may never meet in the MCU. But in Denis Villeneuve’s searing 2013 thriller Prisoners, Gyllenhaal and Jackman are a lit fuse and a powder keg waiting to explode. This early 2010s crime drama stars Jackman as a father whose daughter (and her friend) go missing on Thanksgiving Day. Gyllenhaal co-stars as a haunted police detective who works to track down the girls and find the kidnapper, while making sure Jackman’s aggrieved and impatient father doesn’t jeopardize the investigation. Prisoners is utterly absorbing, being a far cry from any of the Marvel movies both men have appeared.
12. Collateral (2004) with Jamie Foxx and Mark Ruffalo

11. No Country for Old Men (2007) with Josh Brolin and Tommy Lee Jones
(Image credit: Paramount Global)
In Avengers: Infinity War, Josh Brolin held the power of the Infinity Stones. In the Coen Brothers' new millennium classic No Country for Old Men, he’s just a guy with a briefcase full of money. In this celebrated adaptation of the Cormac McCarthy novel, Brolin plays a pronghorn hunter who stumbles upon the site of a drug deal gone wrong and $2 million in cash. While stashing the money, he attracts the attention of a ruthless killer (Javier Bardem). No Country for Old Men is one of the most acclaimed movies of all time, a Best Picture recipient whose stature is still understood today.

5. Da 5 Bloods (2020) with Chadwick Boseman and Jonathan Majors
(Image credit: Netflix)
The last movie starring Chadwick Boseman to be released during his painfully short life and career is Spike Lee’s Da 5 Bloods. A stunning war drama about legacy, capital, and reparations, the movie follows a group of Black Vietnam War veterans who return to Saigon in search of buried gold they left behind. Boseman plays a pivotal role in the movie as Norman, their deceased squad leader who appears in their collective memories. Boseman is thunderous in Lee’s film, being an alluring figure of masculine energy. Jonathan Majors, who was briefly the Marvel villain Kang the Conqueror, also has a major role as David, the son of one of the veterans.

3. In the Mood for Love (2000) with Tony Leung
(Image credit: Criterion Collection)
Tony Leung was an established movie star in Hong Kong when he made his Hollywood debut in Marvel’s Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (as the villainous but handsome father of Shang-Chi, Wenwu). One of his biggest movies of world renown is Wong Kar-wai’s deeply romantic drama In the Mood for Love, where Leung plays a married salaryman who learns that his wife is engaged in an affair with his boss. Maggie Cheung co-stars as said boss' own spouse, and together, Leung and Cheung work to keep their romantic feelings for each other at bay. While many of Wong Kar-wai’s movies drip with sweeping emotions lit under neon street lights, In the Mood for Love deserves special recognition. Its sense of yearning and passion is almost too much to bear.
2. Pulp Fiction (1994) with Samuel L. Jackson and Tim Roth
(Image credit: Paramount Global)
A movie that needs no introduction, Quentin Tarantino’s Pulp Fiction transformed Samuel L. Jackson from working actor to bonafide movie star, in his role as Bible-quoting hitman Jules. Jackson is just one piece of the quilt that Tarantino weaves in his landmark sophomore movie, an interconnected narrative of different characters and fates who dwell in the underbelly of Los Angeles crime. Jackson’s machine gun dialogue would be the most quotable ever in movie history, if actually saying them out loud didn’t draw nasty looks from everyone at the diner. Also in the movie: Tim Roth, as the diner robber before his Marvel role as the Abomination.
