18 Actors You Totally Forgot Were In Marvel Movies

10. Michael K. Williams - The Incredible Hulk

By the time The Wire ended in 2008, its cast had pretty much all risen to the top of Hollywood's most wanted list. Aidan Gillen, Dominic West, Idris Elba and Michael K Williams all made dramatic impacts with their characters on HBO's beloved show, so it was no surprise that they'd end up being offered a lot more work.

What was slightly more surprising is that Williams turned up in a tiny role in The Incredible Hulk the same year The Wire ended on TV. Despite being THE stand-out on the show, Williams was still game for the cameo, which saw him cast as the glamorous-sounding 'Harlem Bystander', as Hulk and the Abomination battled through the city.

The story goes that Ed Norton was such a big fan of The Wire that he got the cameo written in for Williams.
