10 actors have mastered both heroics and villainy.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Not every actor is capable of convincingly playing both heroes and villains, but there are plenty who have proven their mastery of such duality. It's common for actors to become linked to a certain type of role because after they have successfully acted in one, casting directors are more likely to consider them for similar parts.
9 Alan Rickman Alan Rickman will forever be remembered for his incredible performances as Harry Potter's Severus Snape, a seemingly villainous character of uncertain allegiances for much of the franchise, proving himself to be a masterful actor who could play heroic roles just as convincingly as villainous ones. Rickman played a compelling good guy in Sense and Sensibility as Colonel Brandon, Dogma as Metatron, and Galaxy Quest as Alexander Dane.
6 Lena Headey Lena Heady is an incredibly talented actor whose role as Cersei Lannister in Game of Thrones is so convincing that it pulled legions of fans into supporting her villainous character. She has displayed her skill as a villain in numerous other roles as well, including her haunting performance as the drug lord Ma-Ma in the 2012 film Dredd.
3 Meryl Streep Meryl Streep is easily one of the most famous actors ever, playing some of the most iconic roles in Hollywood. She has played antagonists in hit films like The Devil Wears Prada and Into the Woods. Her more heroic roles include Roberta Guaspari in Music of the Heart and Katharine Graham in The Post.
