    Default One actor, multiple DC roles

    This is a thread for DC actors that have portrayed or voiced a character in more than one DC adaptation.

    The rules:

    * A single actor portraying or voicing more than one character within the same adaptation/continuity does not count, i.e. Mark Hamill voicing both the Joker and the Trickster in the DCAU.

    * An actor portraying or voicing the same character in different adaptations does not count, i.e. Kevin Conroy voicing Batman in the DCAU, the Arkhamverse or the Injustice games.

    * A the character does not have to originate from the comics to count. For example, Dean Cain portrayed Dean Cain in Lois & Clark and Dr. Curtis Knox in Smallville (a character who doesn't exist in the comics).

    For examples:

    * Cress Williams portrayed Baron Sunday in Lois & Clark, Black Lighting in Black Lightning and John Henry Irons in Death of Superman and Reign of the Supermen.

    Erica Durance was Lois Lane in Smallville and Alura Zor-El in Supergirl (from season 3 onwards).

    The actress who was Supergirl in Smallville was Indigo in the Supergirl show.

    Linda Carter was Wonder Woman in her 70s show and the President in Supergirl.

    Helen Slater was Supergirl in her 80s movie and Eliza Danvers in the TV show.

    A few of the Robin VA's have voiced different Robins.

    Josh Keaton played Dick Grayson in Arkham Origins and Jason Todd in Young Justice.

    Cameron Bowen voiced Tim Drake in Young Justice and Jason Todd in Injustice 2.

    Yuri Lowenthal played Tim Drake in Batman: Unlimited and Jason Todd and Damian Wayne in Batman: Ninja

    Scott Porter played Dick Grayson in Batman: Arkham Knight and Damian Wayne in Injustice 2.

    -- John Glover: Father of Lex Luthor in Smallville, father of Sivana in Shazam! Jason Woodrue in Batman and Robin
    -- Terence Stamp: Zod in Superman, SupermanII, voiced Jor-El in Smallville.
