Chewie37 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 I remember Mark Kermode asking if there was any actors who had been in three trilogies. Can anyone think of any other than Sylvester Stallone? Rocky, Rambo & Expendables. I'm talking about mainstream movies, no porn actors or TV movies My mates got two more, I'll see if anyone can get them or any others Link to comment
Foster14 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 I assume trilogies are then classed as any film which has 3 or more in a franchise? And do they have to have been in all films in the trilogy? Liam Neeson has been in Star Wars, Taken, Batman (Dark Knight trilogy) Link to comment
Dazzler Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Ian McKellen HobbitLord of the rings X-men Link to comment

Liam Neeson has been in Star Wars, Taken, Batman (Dark Knight trilogy)Yes any franchise with three or more, Liam Neeson is a good shout, don't think he's in the second Batman movie though Link to comment
Chewie37 Posted July 13, 2015 Author Share Posted July 13, 2015 Ian McKellenHobbitLord of the rings X-menYasss, that's one of the two my mates got! Link to comment
Foster14 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Yes any franchise with three or more, Liam Neeson is a good shout, don't think he's in the second Batman movie though So they have to appear in all of the films? Or just 3 of them (if there is more than 3)? Neeson wasn't in all the Star Wars either. Link to comment

Neeson wasn't in all the Star Wars either.Yeah, appear in all the movies. The obvious ones like Arnie, Clint Eastwood and Harrison Ford aren't quite in three sets of three films (Arnie might be in a new Conan film though, so he'd be Terminator, Conan & Expendables too) Link to comment
Foster14 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Hugo Weaving MatrixLord of the RingsHobbit (only in 2 though) Also the voice of Megatron in Transformers. Found that out when checking how many Hobbit films he was in... Link to comment
Foster14 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Orlando Bloom was only in only two of the Hobbit films, otherwise would have had Pirates of the Caribbean, Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit Animated films count. Ben Stiller would qualify if so. Link to comment
Redstar Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Statham has been in the 3 Transporter films...he managed Crank and Crank 2...hopefully they don't get a budget to make a third... Link to comment

Ben Stiller would qualify if so.Ah, Ben Stiller, what's the animated films he's in? The other one we had is similar to Ian Mckellan where you don't think of him because he's not the main character in the films but is one of the main group Link to comment
Foster14 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 He does the Madagascar films. So that with Meet the Parents/Fockers etc and Night at the Museum. Link to comment

Redforever86 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 There must be some shit actor who was in American Pie, Scary Movie, etc series. I can't find who so there probably isn't. Link to comment
Redforever86 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Robin Williams has been in three Aladins, three Night at the Museum, but only two Happy Feet. Probably why he ended it. Link to comment
CrazyBullSheep Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Eddie murphy Beverly hills cop, Shrek, and the one about the fat mommas house or something shit Also liam neeson was in chronicles of narnia as Aslan the lion Link to comment
360 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Mel Gibson- Mad Max, Lethal Weapon... The Expendables? Link to comment
The Boofon Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Robin Williams has been in three Aladins, three Night at the Museum, but only two Happy Feet. Probably why he ended it.Three happy feet would be strange. Link to comment

The Expendables? Liam Beeson is Narnia & Taken, but don't think he's in three others. (Batman in two and Star Wars two as well?) Think Eddie Murphy is three Beverly Hills, Shrek but only two Nutty Professors? Link to comment
Chewie37 Posted July 13, 2015 Author Share Posted July 13, 2015 Three happy feet would be strange.Maybe the third would be Happy Leg? Link to comment
Pash Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 Mike Myers? Wayne's World, Austin Powers & Shrek. Link to comment
paddy Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 I'm sure Stan Lee must be one - he always makes a brief cameo in every movie based on a marvel comic. Link to comment
Pudgie Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 Statham has been in the 3 Transporter films...he managed Crank and Crank 2...hopefully they don't get a budget to make a third...Once F&F 8 comes out he'll be one. Transporter, Expendables and F&F. EDIT: Jackie Chan with Rush Hour, Kung Fu Panda and Police Story. Link to comment
Redstar Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 Once F&F 8 comes out he'll be one. Transporter, Expendables and F&F.Could be argued he was in a trilogy of Guy Ritchie Films...Lock stock...Snatch...Revolver Link to comment
DD1903 Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 Once F&F 8 comes out he'll be one. Transporter, Expendables and F&F. EDIT: Jackie Chan with Rush Hour, Kung Fu Panda and Police Story.Has statham been in 3 of the fast and furious films though? Link to comment
Chewie37 Posted July 14, 2015 Author Share Posted July 14, 2015 Mike Myers? Wayne's World, Austin Powers & Shrek. Only two Wayne's Worlds? Close though I'm sure Stan Lee must be one - he always makes a brief cameo in every movie based on a marvel comic. Quality shout, will need to check that Has statham been in 3 of the fast and furious films though?I wasn't counting him because he only appears in the last three rather than all of the series, so he's a "partial" Link to comment
Chewie37 Posted July 14, 2015 Author Share Posted July 14, 2015 Stan Lee is a brilliant shout, but he's not been in three yet, being a comic geek I'm gutted. Going by IMDb Link to comment
Pash Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 Only two Wayne's Worlds? Close though Quality shout, will need to check that I wasn't counting him because he only appears in the last three rather than all of the series, so he's a "partial" Forgive me, I didn't read the question properly.

boboisared Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 I'm sure Stan Lee must be one - he always makes a brief cameo in every movie based on a marvel comic.I'm sure Iron Man is the only trilogy at the moment. There was also the Spidermans with Tobey Maguire. Link to comment
