What i've noticed is that "actor's actors" don't seem to work very well in super hero movies.
What i mean by that is the type of people that get in character and stay their and try to work things into the script based on how they feel their character should feel.
Didn't work for Garfield at fox, Jared Leto with DC, nor Norton with Marvel. They should probably avoid casting any extreme method actors. Heath Ledger is the only one that worked, everyone else was a train wreck on or off camera.

That's random ass list.

Christian Bale is a method actor
Ian McCellan and Patrick Stewart are classically trained actors.
So is Tom Hiddleston.
Gary Oldman has won numerous awards
Hell, they just casted Ali to play Blade and he's an award winning actor.

And this is just of the top of my head. I'm sure there are more serious actors who have appeard in comic book movies and have been successful.

None of the people you listed are method actors. My list isn't random at all. I'm talking about the type of people that stay in character while on set even when not filming, people that request you address them by the characters name only instead of their own name. None of the people you listed do that. People like Shia Lebeouf do that. Your list is actually random.

So we're gonna act like Bale isn't a method actor now because you say so? :mjlol::mjlol::dead::dead:
