15 More Actors You Totally Forgot Were In Comic Book Movies

11. Jon Cryer

Michael Fassbender 300
Warner Bros.

The Movie: Superman IV: The Quest for Peace (1987)

Who He Played: Lenny Luthor, Lex Luthor's nephew who broke the villain out of prison and aided him in his creation of Nuclear Man.

Why You Forgot: One year after his role as Duckie in Pretty in Pink, Cryer starred in the terrible Superman sequel that drove a Kryptonite stake through the heart of the series, effectively killing it for nearly two decades. Cryer continued acting, notably in his 12-season run on Two and a Half Men, and he - along with society - has long since put Superman IV behind him.
