Jack sparrow is only one!

Honestly if they ever do reboot of the harry potter franchise i will have difficulty to get used to all the new actors and actresses.... But Snape will be the most difficult

I cannot even see rowan atkinson as rowan atkinson anymore!!! He IS Mr Bean!!

The one and only Iron Man 😀

Honestly think that it's the same person now lol

No one could wear it like he does, not even Sean Connery when he played his father

She was awesome in a role that was not so big...She was stealing the show

Robin Williams in any part he ever played. He owned all of his characters.

#FACTS

Agreed. He made that role the icon it is today.

Make it so!

My favorite scene was when Oberyn visited Tyrion in prison. Tyrion didn't speak a word while Oberyn was doing his dialog. His emotions spoke volumes.

Wherever i see him i see Dr House!

No argument here!!

YES!!! (another actor who CREATED every role he played)

He did great and cannot be replaced

Dr.

I'm a fan of the sitcom and Ricci did great but in my mind she's not the only Wednesday.

Eh. He did good, but "best book-to-movie translation" would definitely not go there. I'd say that honor goes to Michael Sheen and David Tennant as Aziraphel and Crowley for "Good Omens".

Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice! 😀

A friend once said Sigourny is the only woman who can look sexy in army underwear ! She is amazing.

I hated the character to begin with and was really curious as to who could possibly do such an awful person "justice". Imelda did it wonderfully (and without me hating HER for it - sometimes it's just hard to disconnect one character from another played by the same actor). But that said, I think almost every actor cast in Harry Potter was a great choice. I was also curious who Emma Thompson would play when I heard she'd be in the series, and I did NOT see her Trelawney coming. Absolutely excellent!

She was such a good character. You’re supposed to hate her, and her biggest achievement is making her an amazing character that we could still hate. I’ve had this discussion many times.

The character she portrayed is so so like my old school head of year (England in the 90s). The way she acted sickly sweet but was a complete horrible cow and the exact dress sense too. The woman still terrifies me and I’m in my 40’s!.

Yes, when the character is so completely covered by an actor that you can't see the actor as themselves anymore - that needs to be in this list!

A puke inducing character

Many many people hated Umbridge from the books she was the one character that everyone agreed was the wort person in the books! However I do agree that Imelda played that role to perfection and I couldn’t see her any other way now

This is another one where they chose to portray a book character very differently on screen, so it seems a stretch to say the actor owns the role forever. As with Tyrion Lannister, anyone who manages to pull off something closer to book Umbridge on screen would probably make Staunton's version seem rather pale and inauthentic by comparison.

And I love her marriage. Imelda Staunton and Jim Carter. Couldn't get better out of central casting.

Another actor who brings it all to her work, never disappoints

Imelda Stauton in believable in every single character she plays. She's just wonderful.

I disagree with this one. I couldn't even finish that movie, they butchered the book so badly.

I honestly liked also Jack Nicholson and Joaquin Phoenix! They all gave something different to the role

Here's Johnny!!

I liked both performances i think they are totally different!

One of my favorite movies of all times 😀

This role was written for Jim. He always has a habbit of playing the same kind of character in every movie he's in. No matter what he does there ALWAYS slips a bit of Carey into his performances. The Grinch has Carey, Ace ventura has Carey, Count Olaf has Carey. But in the Mask it didn't matter, he could go out of his way to be himself.

I had to watch an episode of "Malcom in the Middle" to like Bryan Cranston again.

I really liked an early scene: she doesn't do well on her first visit to the asylum, and looks as about to cry in the parking lot. In the next scene, she's fine. It showed her as vulnerable but resilient.

Masterpiece of police captain

The reboots were nowhere near as good

He always fit whatever character he played and made it his own

Well, show me a movie that Phoenix was not good at!

Yes.

This had to be made.

Also Christoph Waltz as Dr. King Schultz in Django unchained 👌

Let’s face it, Andy Bernard never met the expectations of Michael Scott.

Yup, making men in Swansons. So Iconic

Can I upvote this a thousand times???

Dr Frasier Crane 😀

Oh yeah, agreed. He was hilarious. I would also say JD and Turk also...they cannot be recast. The only comparison I can find is James and Dule in Psych.

Agreed. He was amazing at that role.

In fact, it wasn't a role, it was just him, but they changed his name...

The brilliance of the whole cast!!! Daniel Levy for the win!!!!!

I'll be his huckleberry.

He acted so natural that i was scared!

YES! He is the embodiment of the comic character.

Arrested Development is underappreciated iyam.

Maybe someone else could have been creepier but I am hard pressed to imagine it!
