18) Kurt Russell
Kurt Russell has delivered iconic performances across genres, yet he has never been nominated for an Oscar. In The Thing (1982), he played R.J. MacReady, a rugged and resourceful helicopter pilot battling paranoia and survival in an isolated Antarctic research station. His ability to convey both leadership and vulnerability added to the film’s suspense. In Escape from New York (1981), he brought a mix of grit and charisma to Snake Plissken, creating one of the most memorable antiheroes in cinema.
