Morpheus
Captain of the Nebuchadnezzar and leader of the free humans, Morpheus is a starring character in the Matrixfranchise – and one of the coolest characters on this list. From his cryptic clues to Neo, to his epic martial arts skills, and his sweet long leather trench coat, he’s a kick-ass character throughout the trilogy.
Charles Xavier/Professor X
The leader of the X-Men and blessed with the ability to read minds, Charles Xavier debuted in movies in 2000. Both Patrick Stewart’s and James McAvoy’s takes on the character have been widely praised, as he has taken a central role across 9 movies.
Mace Windu
Mace Windu, played by Samuel L. Jackson, is a Jedi Master in the Star Warsprequel trilogy known for his wisdom and combat prowess. Distinguished by his unique purple lightsaber, is a key figure during the decline of the Galactic Republic. Despite his abilities, he meets his end due to Anakin Skywalker’s betrayal and Emperor Palpatine’s schemes.
Here are some of the big screen’s most iconic bald villains. What is it about a shaved head that makes such a great bad guy?
The Godfather
Rated as the second-best movie on IMDb’s top 250, this mafia classic features Marlon Brando as the titular Godfather, Don Corleone. He’s not quite fully bald, but his receding hairline – and the amazing quality of the movie – meant I had to put it on the list.
The Green Mile
This 1999 fantasy drama featured John Coffey, an inmate on death row that had the supernatural ability to heal. Despite being later found innocent, Coffey is still executed in one of the most heart-breaking film endings. It was surely Michael Clarke Duncan’s finest role.
American History X
While not quite bald, Ed Norton’s white-power skinhead and Neo-Nazi character in this movie is extremely impactful. Norton’s loss at the Academy Awards for this role was included on a list of the most incredibly shocking Oscars injustices by renowned Empire magazine.
Ming the Merciless
Emperor Ming is the villain of the 1980s space opera Flash Gordon, with a truly iconic look – one of the most recognizable bald bearded movie characters that ever existed. The great Max von Sydow had a great time camping it up when bringing this character to life, in what turned out to be a cult classic.
Deckard Shaw
Deckard Shaw’s shaved head and beardlook gives him a real tough-guy look – an image he more than lives up to. Appearing in three Fast & Furious movies before starring in Hobbs & Shawalongside fellow bald actor Dwayne Johnson, Jason Statham packed this character with wit to match his muscles.
Obadiah Stane
The Marvel Cinematic Universe is a true juggernaut of the movie world, and while not the first film in the series, it really took off with Iron Manin 2008. It’s a great movie, with a great bald villain – Obadiah Stane, or Iron Monger, played by Jeff Bridges.
Ellen Ripley
We first meet Ellen Ripley in the original Alien film, but by Alien3, where she has a shaved bald head, she has really been through the wringer. Ripley is an incredible hero in the movies, and Sigourney Weaver masterfully keeps you rooting for her throughout.
Nebula
The first of three Marvel ladies (Marvel seems to like including bald women), Nebula first appears as a villain in Guardians of the Galaxy but is a reluctant anti-hero by the time we get to the big Avengersmovies featuring Thanos. Cold, hard-hitting but naively funny, she is played by Karen Gillan who famously wore a wig on stage to Comic Con just to rip it off as a shock reveal.
Jordan O’Neil
Released in 1997, GI Janetells the story of a female Lieutenant who is put through a rigorous training program in order to get women fully integrated into the Navy. It’s not the best movie, but it’s a great performance from Demi Moore.
There are plenty of bald cartoon charactersin popular culture, but here’s a look at the best to feature in movies.
Pinhead
A leader of the Cenobites, Pinhead is the main villain of the Hellraiserseries of movies. This freaky-looking dude lives up to his name with a bald head that is completely studded with nails. He’s never actually referred to as Pinhead – it’s just a nickname from the movie crew, and later fans.
Nosferatu
One of the very original horror movie characters, Nosferatuwas a 1922 movie featuring the eponymous vampire. The film survives despite Bram Stoker’s estate suing to have all copies destroyed.
Imhotep
Whether The Mummy series of films count as horror is up for debate, but while Brendan Fraser may be cracking jokes, Arnold Vosloo is terrifying as Imhotep, the mummy that the first two films are based on. Whether chasing the heroes as a giant dust cloud or controlling a waterfall, he is never far from achieving his evil goals – but thankfully is just foiled every time.
There are some amazing bald characters in this list, whether played by bald actors or those who’ve shaved their heads. It’d be good to see more bald heroes too, but the tides are starting to turn – we aren’t just the stereotypical villains anymore. If I’ve missed your favorite, you might find something you like in my list of bald cartoon characters...
