Every Actor Credited in an MCU Title Sequence (***Spoilers***)

by TrekFan1 | created - 01 May 2019 | updated - 1 month ago | Public

I felt like compiling a list of every actor who received billing in an opening or main-on-end title sequence of an MCU movie, One-Shot or Disney+ series or special produced by Marvel Studios. Each of the Disney+ series is considered to have one title sequence for the entire series, not a different title sequence for every episode or season. Marvel series that did not originate on Disney+ (e.g., Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Daredevil) are not officially part of the main MCU and are therefore not counted for this list.

WARNING: This list and description both contain ***SPOILERS*** for newly released and recently released MCU projects, up to and including all nine episodes of What If...? Season 2 and all five episodes of Echo.

This list is in order of when each actor's name first appeared on-screen in a title sequence. Please note that this list does *not* include those actors who have *only* been listed in an end-credits crawl, also known as simply an end crawl or the "rolling credits," which run *after* the main title sequence. Also note that I Am Groot, X-Men '97, and the first two One-Shots—The Consultant and A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Thor's Hammer—do not have title sequences so they contributed no names to the list (the lead actors in I Am Groot and the One-Shots are billed elsewhere anyway so they still made the list).

To date there have been 274 different actors who were credited in the title sequences of the main MCU movies, plus seven others who were only credited in one of the Marvel One-Shots, and 128 more who have thus far only been billed in one of the Disney+ series or specials released.

The actor whose name has been featured in the most sequences—ten so far—is Samuel L. Jackson. Just behind Jackson with nine credits each are Don Cheadle, Robert Downey Jr., and Chris Hemsworth; they are followed by Karen Gillan, Sean Gunn, Tom Hiddleston, and Scarlett Johansson, each of whom have been featured in eight sequences. (Cheadle will be featured in ten sequences following the release of Armor Wars.)

Tied for fourth are Hayley Atwell, Chris Evans, Anthony Mackie, Elizabeth Olsen, Mark Ruffalo, Sebastian Stan, and Benedict Wong, and each of whose names pop up in seven title sequences. Also credited in seven sequences are the majority of the Guardians of the Galaxy cast members, namely Dave Bautista, Bradley Cooper, Vin Diesel, and Chris Pratt.

Benedict Cumberbatch, Idris Elba, Jon Favreau, Clark Gregg, Tom Holland, Pom Klementieff, Gwyneth Paltrow, Paul Rudd, and Cobie Smulders appear in six sequences each, while Paul Bettany, Chadwick Boseman, Michael Douglas, Danai Gurira, William Hurt, Evangeline Lilly, Natalie Portman, Jeremy Renner, Zoe Saldana, and Marisa Tomei each appear in five; appearing in four sequences are Jaimie Alexander, Angela Bassett, Jacob Batalon, Linda Cardellini, David Dastmalchian, Kat Dennings, Frank Grillo, Michael Rooker, Stellan Skarsgård, Tessa Thompson, Emily VanCamp, and Letitia Wright.
