But who has the most LEGO versions of themselves? This isn't just about the number of figures. It's about those great characters and the stars who brought them to life! Get ready for some surprises as we explore the exclusive club of LEGO celebrities. You can watch our video about this topic here.
Bronze Level Celebs: "The Two-Figure Club"
Many actors have earned a spot in LEGO history. But how do we decide who counts? We're focusing on live-action roles. Voice actors are amazing, but we won't be including them in this list unless they contributed significantly to the performance via motion capture or other methods. Here are some actors that make the "Two-Figure Club."
Chris Pratt: Owen Grady and Star-Lord (Honorable Mention: Emmet)
Chris Pratt is one of the most well-known actors of the modern era. One such role that contributed to his reputation was as Owen Grady in the Jurassic World franchise. Though he is also well known for his vocal roles in The Super Mario Bros. Movie, The Garfield Movie, and even The LEGO Movie, the only other live-action role he received a minifigure for was Star Lord in Guardians of the Galaxy and throughout the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) films.
Benicio del Toro: The Collector and DJ
Also in Guardians of the Galaxy, the eclectic Collector was played by Benicio del Toro, who received an ultra-rare minifigure in the form of a San Diego Comic-Con Exclusive figure, worth over $1,000! He also played the stuttering slicer DJ in Star Wars: The Last Jedi.
Domhnall Gleeson: General Hux and Bill Weasley
Domhnall Gleeson is another surprise entry from the Star Wars sequel trilogy, playing General Hux. He also portrayed Bill Weasley in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, who only recently got a figure in The Burrow-Collector's Edition, which is not even based on the same movie.
Bill Nighy: Rufus Scrimgeour and Davy Jones
Also only appearing in the final films in the Harry Potter franchise was short-lived Minister for Magic, Rufus Scrimgeour, played by the stoic Bill Nighy. He is definitively more well-known for his foreboding role as Davy Jones from the Pirates of the Caribbean films.
Orlando Bloom: Will Turner and Legolas
Orlando Bloom has two fantastic minifigures based on equally iconic characters. He played Will Turner in Pirates of the Caribbean as well as Legolas in fantasy-favorite Lord of the Rings. Both franchises are highly collectible amongst LEGO fans!
John Rhys-Davies: Gimli and Sallah
Also from Lord of the Rings, John Rhys-Davies has many minifigs for Gimli and just recently joined the two-figure club with the addition of Sallah from Indiana Jones. Fans waited a while for a Sallah minifigure as it didn't appear until LEGO Indiana Jones made a comeback in 2023 after a 14-year hiatus!
Natalie Portman: Padme Amidala and Jane Foster
Natalie Portman is another iconic actress, well-known for her role as Padme Amidala in Star Wars. She also played Jane Foster (Mighty Thor) in the Marvel movies. Jane is another figure we didn't see made for awhile, over 11 years after her first on-screen appearance in Thor (2011).
Wayne Knight: Dennis Nedry and Newman
Wayne Knight played the bumbling Dennis Nedry in Jurassic Park. He was also Seinfeld's arch-nemesis, Newman. He is surprisingly the only character from one of the LEGO sitcom sets to appear on this list.
Laura Dern: Dr. Ellie Sattler and Vice Admiral Holdo
Finally from the original Jurassic Park, we have Laura Dern as Dr. Ellie Sattler. She joined the Two-Figure Club with her role as Vice Admiral Holdo, best known for her sacrifice in Star Wars: The Last Jedi.
Ahmed Best: Jar Jar Binks and Kelleran Beq
Ahmed Best has had it rough. He both voiced and did motion capture performance and reference footage for the often-hated Jar Jar Binks in the Star Wars prequel trilogy. He did, however, make a triumphant return as Kelleran Beq in The Mandalorian TV show. Much to the joy of younger fans, he's back in the Star Wars universe!
Kristen Wiig: Cheetah and Erin Gilbert
The hilarious Kristen Wiig played Cheetah in Wonder Woman 1984 which appeared alongside Pedro Pascal's Maxwell Lord in LEGO-form in the underrated transmitter tower playset. She was also Erin Gilbert in the 2016 Ghostbusters film.
Chris Hemsworth: Kevin Beckman and Thor
Alongside Kristen Wiig in Ghostbusters (2016), Chris Hemsworth played the character of Kevin. He is of course, more well-known for his role as Thor throughout the Marvel Cinematic Universe. He is another actor the surprisingly only has two LEGO versions!
Josh Brolin: Thanos, Gurney Halleck
One of Thor's and the rest of the Avengers' biggest foes in the Inifinity Saga was Thanos, voiced and motion performed by Josh Brolin. Unfortunately we didn't get a minifigure, but did you know he also played the villain Cable in Deadpool 2? In the ongoing Dune series, he also played Gurney Halleck which we received as a minifigure in the incredible ornithopter set.
Zendaya: Chani, MJ
Alongside Brolin, Zendaya played the Fremen Chani in Dune. She is also well-known for playing Spider-Man's love interest, MJ, in the Spider-Man MCU films.
Jake Gyllenhaal: Mysterio and Dastan
In Spider-Man: Far From Home, Jake Gyllenhaal portrayed the antagonist, Mysterio. He did, however, play a great protagonist, Dastan, in the somewhat-forgotten Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time film from 2010.
Sir Ben Kingsley: Nizam and The Mandarin
Sir Ben Kingsley is a talented actor, as reflected in his distinguished status as a knight. His two minifigures are the antagonist Nizam in Prince of Persia, as well as the Mandarin in Iron Man 3.
Sir Ian McKellen: Magneto and Gandalf
Another Knight, but from the X-Men side of Marvel villains, Sir Ian McKellen played Magneto in the X-Men series. Is the Magneto minifigure based on the comic or the movie? What do you think? He is, of course, also best known for playing the wizard Gandalf in both The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit Trilogies.
Sir Christopher Lee: Saruman and Count Dooku
Sir Christopher Lee was the perfect choice to play the dark wizard Saruman in Lord of the Rings as he brought so much power and realism to the role. Another formidable antagonist he played was the Sith Lord and Separatist leader Count Dooku in Star Wars.
Sir Patrick Stewart: Professor X and Jean-Luc Picard
Our final Knight on this list, Sir Patrick Stewart only recently got even his first LEGO minifigure with Professor X, appearing in the X-Mansion set from 2024. Though this is the more detailed figure, technically only the figure from the Cerebro gift-with-purchase was based on the version played by Patrick Stewart! He will soon join the Two-Figure Club with the appearance of Captain Picard in the upcoming first-ever LEGO Star Trek set, the USS Enterprise D!
Helena Bonham Carter: Red Harrington and Bellatrix Lestrange
Helena Bonham Carter is an actress best known for playing eccentric and dark characters such as Bellatrix Lestrange in the Harry Potter franchise. One exception to her usual work was as Red Harrington in The Lone Ranger film from 2013. Both of her minifigures had unique molds created to capture her iconic hair.
Gary Oldman: Sirius Black and Commissioner Gordon
In a spoiler-free transition from the previous entry, Gary Oldman played Harry Potter's framed-convict-turned-godfather, Sirius Black. He was also Commissioner Gordon in Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight trilogy. These two roles and their minifigures show but a glimpse of his diverse acting abilities.
Colin Farrell: The Penguin and Percival Graves
Another incredibly versatile actor, Colin Farrell was a surprise to many in his role as The Penguin in The Batman (2022). He also played the Auror, Director of Magical Security, and head of MACUSA's Department of Magical Law Enforcement Percival Graves in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.

Lee Pace: Ronan the Accuser and Thranduil
Lee Pace may not be as instantly recognizable as some of the others on this list. He played Ronan the Accuser in Guardians of the Galaxy. He also played Thranduil, the Elvenking of Mirkwood in The Hobbit.

Silver-Level Stars: "The Three-Figure Club"

Samuel L. Jackson: Nick Fury, and Ray Arnold, and Mace Windu
Samuel L. Jackson plays countless legendary characters, many of which will likely never qualify to be made into minifigures. He has still, however, secured a spot in the Three-Figure Club with Nick Fury from the MCU, Ray Arnold from the original Jurassic Park, and Mace Windu from Star Wars. While he gives an incredible performance as Frozone from The Incredibles, he unfortunately doesn't make the list.
Harrison Ford: Han Solo, Indiana Jones, and Red Hulk
The legendary Harrison Ford surprisingly only rings in with three minifigures, for Han Solo and Indiana Jones himself! While he has been represented in many different ages as these characters, they still only count as two! Ford also appeared as Red Hulk in Captain America: Brave New World which bumps him into the elite Three-Figure Club!
Jeff Goldblum: Grandmaster, Dr. Ian Malcolm, The Wizard
Jeff Goldblum had an iconic role as the hedonistic Grandmaster in Thor: Ragnarok. One of his best-known early roles however, was as the cocky, flirtatious, rock-star "Chaotician" Dr. Ian Malcolm in the Jurassic Park franchise. Goldblum also appeared in Wicked as The Wizard, who received a Minidoll in 2024.
Jason Momoa: Duncan Idaho, Garrett Garrison, and Aquaman
Alongside Oscar Isaac in Dune was Jason Momoa, playing House Atreides swordmaster, Duncan Idaho.

One of the best DC Superheroes, Batman, was portrayed by Michael Keaton in Batman (1989) and Batman Returns (1992) before leaving the franchise following Tim Burton before Batman Forever. He also plays the vulgar titular character in Beetlejuice who surprisingly received a LEGO figure through the Dimensions theme, as well as the villain The Vulture in Spider-Man: Homecoming
Robert Pattinson: Batman, Edward Cullen, and Cedric Diggory
Another great actor to play Batman was Robert Pattinson in the 2022 adaptation. He also played Edward Cullen in the Twilight franchise which was astonishingly produced as a LEGO Ideas set. Finally, one of his earliest well-known roles was as Tri-Wizard Champion Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.
Johnny Depp: Gellert Grindelwald, Tonto, and Captain Jack Sparrow
Later on in the Wizarding World franchise, from Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, the incredible Johnny Depp played Gellert Grindelwald until being replaced by Mads Mikkelsen following the defamatory accusations leveled by Amber Heard. Despite these setbacks his illustrious career has also included such characters as Willy Wonka, Edward Scissorhands, the Mad Hatter, Sweeney Todd, and Ichabod Crane. While the only other minifigures he has received are Tonto from The Lone Ranger (2013) Jack Sparrow from the Pirates of the Caribbean films, he could potentially see another in the upcoming LEGO Ideas set based on Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, depending on which version they choose to portray (Hopefully both!)
