Actor: Michael Keaton

Michael Keaton’s casting as Batman produced organised fan protest because he was known for comedy, and the film’s success made him the definitive screen version for a generation.

Beetlejuice, in which he is on screen for about seventeen minutes, is the performance that shows what he actually does, and it is closer to chaos than to acting.

Birdman brought a Best Actor nomination for a film explicitly about a comic-book actor’s decline, and Spotlight and The Founder followed. He returned to Batman decades later for The Flash.
