'X-Men' Roll Call: Which Actors Have Played the Many Mutants?

The X-Men movie franchise has been around for 16 years and eight movies … nine if you count Deadpool. And through that time, there’s been one guiding rule: There’s only one Wolverine. Australian superstar Hugh Jackman has wielded the feral Canadian’s claws since the very first X-Men movie in 2000, and he has appeared in every installment made since, including X-Men: Apocalypse, which opens in theaters this weekend. (The end is in sight though: Jackman has already announced plans to retire after Wolverine’s yet-to-be-titled third solo adventure.)

That same rule doesn’t apply to his teammates, though. Multiple actors have portrayed the mutants that make up the X-Men universe. Here’s a guide to the revolving door of actors and actresses who have played some of your favorite heroes and villains. (Photos: Twentieth Century Fox)
