13. Ben Affleck

(Daredevil, Daredevil/Batman, DCEU)

He's such a great director, and a solid actor as well. Guy just makes bad choices. Daredevil was one of those. Ben not only didn't look the part of Matt Murdock, he was also backed by an awful script and a supporting cast that, for the most part, did him no favors. It's sad that his first opportunity got screwed up as hard as this one did.

Affleck certainly looks the part as Batman, and I don't mind his bat-voice. Plus, he captures the air of an older Bruce Wayne very well.

SPECIAL BONUS: While this one doesn't really count, Ben sorta got to play Superman in a good movie that came out a long time ago! 2006's Hollywoodland was about the real unsolved death of 50's Superman actor George Reeves. Affleck played Reeves, and we got a couple scenes of him in the suit that make him look damn good.

12. Doug Jones

(Abe Sapian, Hellboy 1 and 2/Silver Surfer, Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer)

Doug Jones is an actor who is absolutely incredible.

His physicality in every role is impossible to look away from. Like, The Gentlemen from Buffy? That's Doug Jones. The Pale Man from Pan's Labyrinth? Also Doug Jones. And, of course, Abe Sapian. Hellboy's pal is one of the more memorable parts of both films, with his fishy charm making him a great supporting character. And he's even better in the second film.

Jones also performed the physicality (if not the voice acting) for the Silver Surfer in Tim Story's second Fantastic Four film. The Surfer certainly does look the part, and it's a shame that Jones didn't get more time to embody the sentinel of the spaceways.

SPECIAL BONUS: Jones also plays the Yeti in Henry Sellick's Monkeybone, based on the graphic novel Dark Town. The only reason this is a bonus and not an official entry is that I can't find anything saying whether or not the Yeti was in the original comic and it is seemingly impossible to actually buy a copy of Dark Town to check. That thing is hell of rare.
