Ben Wheeler (Jonas Dylan Allen) is a character in Netflix’s First Kill. Based on the short story by V.E. Schwab, the plot centers on two enemies: Calliope and Juliette. As the title suggests, each must carry out their first kill — Calliope must kill her first monster and Juliette must feed from her first victim — but they fall for each other instead. Ben is Juliette’s childhood best friend. He’s human, so he has a hard time handling the news that his best friend is a vampire. But he’ll still help her hide a dead body — which actually happens in the show. He is openly gay and in a secret fling with Noah. Though when Noah refuses to go public, Ben stands up for himself and breaks things off.

Joseph Seed is an antagonist in the video game, Far Cry 5. Also known as “The Father,” Joseph is a merciless psychopath at the helm of the extremist cult. He leads this cult with his brothers, John and Jacob, and his sister, Faith. Through coercion and violence, Joseph recruits residents of Hope County into his organization. He sincerely believes he was chosen by a higher power to lead people during the apocalypse, and his goal is to protect his “children” and lead them to “Eden’s Gate.”

Bruce Wayne (voiced by Troy Baker), also known as Batman, is the main protagonist in season 2 of Telltale’s Batman video game. 2016’s Batman: The Enemy Within follows a bit of a different take in terms of how Batman is usually handled in games, as instead of mostly just playing as Batman, you spend a large portion of the game more focused on being Bruce, and tackling the various challenges that come out of having two different personas to keep up.

His general appearance follows most other portrayals of his character, with black hair and blue eyes, but this outfit in particular is a bit different than his usual wear.

Bruce’s main streetwear outfit in season 2 of the game acts more as a disguise of a different kind, with a red shirt covered by a brown biker’s jacket, with a black neckerchief, grayish black pants, brown boots, and a black newsboy cap with black leather gloves.

David is a character in the comedy web series, Camp Camp. He is a counselor at Camp Campbell. Optimistic and kind-hearted, he is eager to show people the bright side of camping. His enthusiasm clashes with other characters, but that doesn’t deter his goal to make kids what joy camping can bring.

Chad (played by Harry Shum, Jr.) is a chef in an alternate universe who works with Evelyn at a hibachi restaurant in the film Everything Everywhere All at Once.  Chad is the best chef at the restaurant where Evelyn works in this particular universe, but she soon discovers why… there’s a raccoon under his chef’s hat that controls his every move.  To recreate the ‘Raccaccoonie’ costume, you have a few options. You’ll want to dress as a chef using white and blue as much as possible.  But for the raccoon component, you can decide how much effort you’d like to put in.  You can wear a blue chef’s hat and attach a raccoon tail hanging out the back, or you could wear a cute raccoon plush hat.  If you’re willing to get a little more creative, you could cut slits into the bottom of a raccoon stuffed animal and thread two or three hard headbands through it to affix the toy to your head.

Finney Blake (played by Mason Thames) is the protagonist of the horror film The Black Phone.  Based on a short story of the same name, Finney is kidnapped by a serial killer known as The Grabber.  While held in captivity, he begins to receive supernatural communications from prior victims on a disconnected black phone.  Finney has long, shaggy hair, and is wearing a blue and grey baseball tea and jeans when he is kidnapped.

Zeus (Russell Crowe) is a minor character in Thor: Love and Thunder. He is the Greek god of the skies, king of Olympus, and leader of the gods. When Thor confronts him about the god butcher, Zeus disregards the threat. The group ends up impaling him with his Thunderbolt, which Valkyrie steals before making their escape. Later on, they use the power of the Thunderbolt to help defeat Gorr. An iconic scene from the trailer involves Zeus magically removing Thor’s disguise that leaves him nude in front of everyone and makes the Grecian girls swoon. The post credit scene features Zeus recuperating from his injuries and calling upon a familial hero to take down the Norse god of thunder.

Ned Bigby (Devon Werkheiser) is the protagonist of Ned’s Declassified School Survival Guide, a live-action Nickelodeon series from the mid 2000s.

His solid advice shows his creativity, but also can highlight his anxiety. Ultimately, his goal is to make it through middle school with his two best friends, Cookie and Moze. His usual style is short sleeved flannel over a crew neck t-shirt, paired with jeans and his trusty guide.
