The actor chews every scene he is in in the best way possible. While not the hardened criminal he is in the comics, he is flamboyant and ruthless in his own way. Ewan isn’t afraid to share the spotlight either, as he doesn’t overshadow the likes of Harley Quinn in their scenes together.

5 Dan Torrance – Doctor Sleep
Making a sequel to Stanley Kubrick’s adaptation of Stephen King’s The Shining is no small task. King wrote Doctor Sleep as a sequel to his iconic novel, and the film adaptation chose to follow the classic film. Even though there were huge blood-soaked shoes to fill, the film excelled on all fronts.
