33 actors we need to see in major comic book movies and TV shows
By Mark Lynch
20. Emmy Rossum
Emmy Rossum’s most popular role is probably Fiona Gallagher in Shameless. She wore a lot of hats throughout the series. She was the mother, big sister, and boss for her family. She’s also been an irresponsible drunk and a woman who doesn’t have any kind of hangups.
Not every woman can pull off sensual, and seductive. Emmy Rossum can. And not just any woman can stand next to Emma Frost. Selene can and does. With that in mind, casting a performer like Emmy Rossum as the vampiric Marvel mutant Selene is an easy choice. It’s easy to see her being the Black Queen of the Hellfire Club.

19. Chloe Grace Moretz
We first met Chloe Grace Moretz in Kick-Ass. If we’re being honest, the movie wouldn’t be half as good without her performance. Seeing her curse like a sailor and beat down criminals never seemed to get old. She could succeed that role as a character like Deena Pilgrim in Powers.
Deena Pilgrim is vulgar and makes jokes at the wrong time. Nevertheless, she’s a top notch detective. Chloe Grace Moretz could do all of that in her sleep. She would also be great when she’s beating down criminals in the interrogation room.
