From Mike Colter (Luke Cage) and Charlie Cox (Daredevil) to Tom Holland (Spider-Man) and Tenoch Huerta (Namor), the Marvel Universe has consistently launched the careers of several actors into a whole new stratosphere in the mainstream.
For the most part, when comparing an actor’s career before and after having starred in a Marvel project, there’s a noticeable difference in many cases. Several of the actors go on to accept leading roles in other productions, while others have been awarded their very own spin-offs on Disney+.
In a recent appearance on ‘2 Bears 1 Cave with Tom Segura and Bert Kreischer,” Legendary film director Quentin Tarantino offered some pushback on the notion that actors who portray Marvel characters are actually “stars” in their own right. Instead, the known comic book enthusiast explained why he believes that the fictional comic book characters are the real stars and the actors are simply the vessels telling a story.
