10 Actors Who Appeared In Star Trek AND The MCU

4. Sir Patrick Stewart

Sir Patrick Stewart needs no introduction, having now appeared in The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Picard, one Short Trek, several films and, in images and discussion, Discovery as Jean-Luc Picard. In 2000, he took a seat as the head of the most prestigious school for Mutants - Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters. 

Brian Singer's X-Men was one of Fox's first forays into translating Marvel comics to the big screen, following Universal and New Line Cinema's prior attempts with Howard The Duck and Blade. Stewart appeared in X-Men, X2, X-Men: The Last Stand, X-Men: Days Of Future Past, and Logan - all under the Fox label.

He made the jump to the MCU in Doctor Strange And The Multiverse Of Madness, finally styled like the version audiences would be familiar with from the '90s animated series. Though his role was brief, it served its nostalgia-evoking purpose and clearly inspired Marvel Studios to invite him back for Avengers: Doomsday. It remains to be seen how extensive his role in this upcoming film will be. We can only hope that he fares slightly better this time around.
