20 Actors You Totally Forgot Were In Comic Book Movies

3. Ellen Pompeo

The Movie: Daredevil (2003)

Who She Played: Karen Page, Matt and Foggy's secretary.

Why You Forgot: Unlike Karen in Netflix's recent Daredevil series, the Karen in the 2003 film had little to nothing to do. Had the film spawned sequels, the role may have expanded, but the franchise's failure to launch hardly stopped Pompeo. Two years later, she scored the role of Meredith Grey on ABC's Grey's Anatomy and the show's instant popularity turned her into a star overnight.
