A collection of actors have hit a particular milestone with their various appearances in the MCU.
The Marvel Cinematic Universe has become such an interlocking tapestry of heroes, villains, and other characters that sometimes, it can feel overwhelming to try and keep track of who appeared where.
As Marvel headed into its Multiverse Saga, things only became more complicated, since Disney+ afforded the studio to introduce characters at a rapid clip through television series and Special Presentations.
A select few of those characters and the actors who portray them even have bridged the gap between Marvel’s Disney+ content and its feature films.
Exclusive Multiverse Saga Character ClubThe following actors and their respective Marvel characters hold the special distinction of having been introduced in the Multiverse Saga and have had a role in both an MCU movie and a Disney+ series.
Because of this, one could say they belong to a pretty exclusive MCU club.
Hailee Steinfeld as Kate Bishop
Marvel StudiosKate Bishop, as brought to life by
Bumblebee’s Hailee Steinfeld, was a series regular in
Hawkeye, which saw the young archer team up with Clint Barton. In the very last pre-credits scene from
The Marvels, Kate makes a quick cameo appearance, in which Kamala Khan attempts to recruit her (Nick Fury-style) to the Young Avengers.
Florence Pugh as Yelena Belova
Marvel StudiosNatasha Romanoff’s adoptive little sister Yelena Belova (Florence Pugh) made her first appearance as an agent of the Red Room in 2021’s
Black Widow.
That film’s post-credits sequence teed up Yelena’s vendetta against Clint Barton, which was expanded upon in the
Hawkeye series later that year. In the final episode, Yelena and Clint came to blows before the Avenger was able to talk her down.
Julia Louis-Dreyfus as Val
Marvel Studios
Seinfeld’s Julia Louis-Dreyfus plays the mysterious, cunning Contessa Valentina Allegra de Fontaine (Call her Val, but also don’t) slinked onto the scene in
The Falcon and the Winter Soldier to persuade John Walker to join her cause.
The Contessa then cropped up after
Black Widow’s credits and had a more sizable role in
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever where it’s revealed that she’s the director of the CIA.
Julian Hilliard as Billy Maximoff
Marvel StudiosOne half of the Maximoff Twins from
WandaVision, Billy Maximoff, was played by Julian Hilliard as a figment of his mother Wanda’s hex. The young actor later went on to appear in 2022’s
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness where Billy and his brother Tommy were alive in an alternate universe.
Jett Klyne as Tommy Maximoff
Marvel StudiosThe speedy Tommy Maximoff, much like his sibling Billy, first showed up as Wanda’s nonexistent son in WandaVision. But Jett Klyne appeared as a flesh-and-blood version of Tommy from another reality in
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.
Charlie Cox as Matt Murdock
Marvel StudiosAlthough he may have appeared in the
Daredevil Netflix series first, Charlie Cox began his MCU career in a one-scene cameo in
Spider-Man: No Way Home where his Matt Murdock serves as Peter Parker’s attorney. From there, Matt cropped up in two episodes of
She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, in which he donned his iconic Daredevil suit.
Jonathan Majors as Kang (and his Variants)
Marvel StudiosThe embattled Jonathan Majors first made his presence known in the MCU in the Season 1 finale of
Loki where he played He Who Remains, a Variant of Multiversal despot Kang. He then played the real Kang the Conqueror in
Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania, as well as another Kang Variant, Victor Timely in
Loki’s second season.
Iman Vellani as Kamala Khan
Marvel StudiosThe fan-favorite Iman Vellani first entered the MCU in
Ms. Marvel on Disney+, where she gave life to teenager Kamala Khan who idolizes superheroes before becoming one herself. Captain Marvel’s number one fan then proceeds to serve as a lead in
The Marvels alongside Carol and Monica Rambeau.
Zenobia Shroff as Muneeba Khan
Marvel StudiosZenobia Shroff played Kamala’s mother Muneeba Khan in all six episodes of Ms. Marvel And then reprised the character for
The Marvels where she and her family went to space with Nick Fury.

Ms. Marvel and
The Marvels by Mohan Kapur.

Ms. Marvel before making the jump to the big screen in
The Marvels.
Teyonah Parris as Monica Rambeau
Marvel StudiosAlthough Monica Rambeau began her time in the MCU as a little girl played by Akira Ackbar, Teyonah Parris took over the role as the adult version of the character starting in
WandaVision. After gaining superpowers, Monica was one of the three leads in
The Marvels alongside Kamala Khan and Carol Danvers.
Bonus: Maria Bakalova as Cosmo
Marvel StudiosTechnically, Cosmo first showed up in the Collector’s museum in the first
Guardians of the Galaxy movie, but the telekinetic canine received a voice in
The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special, where she was portrayed by Maria Balkalova. She then had a bigger role in
