Over the years, we’ve seen so many incredible TV shows and movies and how the actors embody their characters to ensure they bring them to life. We’ve seen these exciting roles, and sometimes we want to be like them in so many ways. Although we have many more reboots this time, we still have incredible TV characters to watch.
But, if you want to go on a nostalgic journey to see some of your favorites, you can always check various streaming platforms to see which ones you can binge. And like when you want to do your NASCAR picks, you can easily select different TV shows and movies to watch from time to time.
Not to worry, there is a wide range of exciting TV show and movie characters to enjoy. So, here are our five greatest movies and TV shows characters that we believe you should know.
James Bond 007
British MI6 top secret agent James Bond, with the code name 007, is one of the greatest make-believe characters. When the first movie came out in 1962, it was tagged a cinematic genius, and for more than five decades now, it is still a top-chart character worldwide. Hardly is there anyone who doesn’t love James Bond.
Although we’ve had many actors play the Bond character, there has been a way that each one takes it to another level. Starting with Sean Connery to Daniel Craig, the list of world-class actors cannot be understated. We look forward to what the movie based on Ian Fleming’s original book series has in stock for us.
We look forward to more 007 movies in the future, and with the advancement of cinematography, we can’t phantom what is in stock for us. So, all we can do is wait for a new release.
Ethan Hunt
Closely following James Bond in the super-secret service line is Mission Impossible’s, Ethan Hunt. An incredible super-spy, working for the US government and helping to stop different criminals who want to throw the world out of balance—played by one of the greatest actors of all time, Tom Cruise.
Tom Cruise has shown that he can hold his own as an actor and a stuntman, thanks to what we saw in Top Gun. And as a result, Mission Impossible I to IV was a success, and we enjoyed every piece of it from start to finish. He brought the Ethan Hunt character to life, and anywhere we hear the name, it is his face that just fits.
Tony Soprano
The Sopranos is arguably the best TV series worldwide. It had everything from the first season to the final, and Tony Soprano was at the helm of everything. He played the role of a father and a gangster perfectly, depicting how difficult it is to balance a normal life while running a notorious gang in the shadows.
We got to see different facets of the character that made us fall in love with him, despite being a badass gangster that does not show remorse. Undoubtedly, we believe Tony Soprano was one of the best characters on screen, and not many TV shows have had that one stand-out character.
Bruce Wayne
Bruce Wayne; billionaire by day, vigilante by night. We think he is one of the greatest movie characters that has graced our screen. He is more relatable because he does not have any superpowers, even though many will argue that his ninja-level fighting skills and huge bank are enough superpowers for anyone.
Nikita
Nikita is a female agent that works for the Division, a US secret government agency. The Division saved her from death row, and as a result, she became an agent for them. However, things went sour, and Nikita became a rogue agent working to bring down the agency. We saw some of the greatest battle sequences and emotion-jeering conversations throughout the series.
Final Note
These characters transcend time and stay at the top pile of the chart. We believe that they single-handledly carry their roles and make sure that the movie or TV show doesn’t tank. Without these characters, some of our favorite cinematic experiences would not exist.
