10 Actors Who Play Multiple Roles In The MCU

1. Stan Lee

Sean Gunn MCU
Marvel Studios

Who else could possibly take the top spot on this list?

Up until his death in 2018, Stan Lee would always make a quick appearance in every Marvel film, including the MCU. The iconic Marvel creator is best known for helping to bring heroes such as Spider-Man, Ant-Man, the X-Men, Iron Man, and the Fantastic Four, among others, to life. The MCU had a field day with Lee's cameos, often giving him a hilarious one-liner or a nice interaction with the main cast.

For a time, fans theorised that Lee was playing the Watcher, checking in on his various creations. However, given the fact that Jeffrey Wright voiced Uatu, the most iconic Watcher from the comics, in What If...?, and Lee appeared speaking with the Watchers in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2, it's safe to say that his MCU cameo characters are all separate.

Lee's cameos were a fun element of all Marvel films, and recent MCU films hit differently when they don't briefly feature Stan the Man. Excelsior, true believers.
