Chris Evans, The Losers
The Big Picture Given the sheer amount of comic book films and shows that are released every year, it would be fairly challenging to find a living actor who has yet to interact with the characters from either Marvel or DC studios. At this point, Daniel Day-Lewis and Meryl Streep may be the only two who can escape the hold that superheroes have over the industry.
What Is 'The Losers' About? While the DC brand was built on strong, inspirational heroes inspired by Greek mythology, the characters in The Losers are not standard “good guys” by any stretch of the imagination. The film focuses on a group of elite black-ops United States Special Forces commandos that go on a series of highly dangerous international missions that a majority of the government’s secret agents wouldn’t touch.
'The Losers' Isn’t a Standard Comic Book Movie Although it's a surprisingly faithful translation of the source material, The Losers feels much closer in tone to classic action movies than it does to superhero movies. The notion of a “rogue team” of outsiders with an unusual set of skills seems lifted from Western classics like The Wild Bunch or World War II epics like The Dirty Dozen, and The Losers succeeds by being just a touch antiquated.
