Since you guys got all but three on my list, here are a couple of hint for what they're worth...

Buster Moon - animated movie from 2016 that just released a sequel.

Chester Kent - first movie that has Cagney dancing

Christian Wolff - Ben Affleck action movie from 2016

Christian Wolff - Ben Affleck action movie from 2016

The others, sorry, I draw a blank

Anyone else want to take a shot at these movies from Burt Lancaster?

Several of the characters aren't as well known as the movies, but all are from top-notch movies and I'm sure most have seen them all.
