Live-Action The Incredibles Fancast

Pixar’s The Incredibles is a superhero family classic—equal parts action-packed, heartfelt, and stylish. But what if we took that iconic animated world and brought it into live action? Here's my dream cast list of actors who could bring depth, humor, and superhero swagger to the Parr family and their unforgettable allies (and villains). These picks aren’t just about matching the look—they’re about capturing the energy, emotion, and complexity of these beloved characters.

Ruth Negga (Preacher, Passing) oozes sophistication and subtle danger. As Mirage, she’d bring elegance, intelligence, and an air of mystery to the character—perfectly portraying someone torn between loyalty and conscience. Her nuanced acting would elevate Mirage into a scene-stealing enigma.

No one delivers chaos with charm quite like Jack Black. His booming voice and manic energy make him an ideal pick for the mole-like menace who lives to destroy peace and dig tunnels. He’d lean into the theatrical, moustache-twirling absurdity of The Underminer with pure glee.

Dafne Keen (Logan, His Dark Materials) already proved she can play fierce and vulnerable with equal power. Violet’s arc—from shy and insecure to confident and heroic—fits Keen perfectly. She’d bring real emotional depth to Violet’s teen turmoil and shield-wielding bravery.

Julian (WandaVision, The Haunting of Hill House) has the spark and mischievous charm that make Dash so lovable. He’s already shown he can handle supernatural roles with energy and heart, and he’d bring youthful, high-speed fun to the role of the family’s speedster son.

Julian Hilliard as Dash Parr

Let’s be honest—Ali Wong is born to play Edna. She has the sharp wit, the commanding voice, and the fashion-forward confidence to totally own the role. Equal parts hilarious and brilliant, Ali would turn Edna into a scene-stealer (just like the animated version).

Lamorne (New Girl, Bloodshot) has the cool factor and comic timing to crush it as Frozone. He’s naturally funny, effortlessly stylish, and could deliver Lucius’ iconic one-liners with ease. Plus, his chemistry with Ritchson’s Mr. Incredible would make their buddy dynamic pop.

Lamorne Morris as Frozone (Lucius Best)

Yes, that Daniel Radcliffe. He’s proven time and time again that he thrives in weird, wild, villainous roles (Swiss Army Man, Guns Akimbo, Miracle Workers). As Syndrome, he’d bring a manic intensity and tragic depth to the bitter fanboy-turned-supervillain, making him oddly sympathetic and completely unhinged.

Melissa Barrera (Scream, In the Heights) has the emotional range, commanding presence, and fierce energy to bring Elastigirl to life. She can balance being a loving mother and a daring, independent superhero with ease. Her grounded yet magnetic screen presence would make Helen feel as strong and flexible emotionally as she is physically.

With his towering physique and leading-man charisma, Alan Ritchson (Reacher, Titans) is built for Mr. Incredible. He can do strong, dependable, and slightly stubborn—all while anchoring a family drama with warmth. Plus, he’s no stranger to action sequences, making him a perfect fit for Bob’s superhero legacy.
