1. Mark Hamill

Mark Hamill is one of the most beloved actors out there, especially when you take into account the masses of Star Wars fans who essentially worship the guy. He's a fun and entertaining person who engages with his fans on Twitter, where he makes poignant and witty observations that show he's a relevant and fascinating person.

Unfortunately, his acting career has only truly shone a spotlight on a single role, and you already know what it is. Despite being an active actor for more than 40 years, Mark Hamill's time in front of a camera has only ever highlighted his performance as Luke Skywalker.

Since that role, he's played some parts here and there, but he's made most of his money working as a voice-over actor. His most beloved role has been as the Joker in the DC Animated Universe, and he's played dozens of other roles in animated series, movies, and he's also voiced numerous video game characters.

That's not to say he hasn't been acting in live-action, but there aren't a lot of people who can name two or three other roles he's had over the years. There certainly haven't been any as prominent as Luke Skywalker, which remains his one-hit-wonder as a live-action actor.
