Winter Soldier
Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan) is Captain America’s brother-in-arms until his plane explodes in Soviet airspace. The Russians rescue him, using the opportunity to program him to work for them as an assassin code-named the Winter Soldier. They also patch him up with a bionic arm, all the better for assassinating targets.
Tadashi Hamada
In Big Hero 6, Tadashi Hamada (voiced by Daniel Henney) is the older brother of Hiro. A brilliant inventor, he works alongside GoGo Tomago and Honey Lemon at the San Fransokyo Institute of Technology.
Gene from Wet Hot American Summer
In Wet Hot American Summer, Gene Jenkinson (Christopher Meloni) is a shell-shocked Vietnam vet who finds his calling as a summer camp chef. With the help of his friend, a talking can of vegetables, he’s able to help Coop win over his crush Katie.
Harley Quinn in Suicide Squad
In Suicide Squad, Harley Quinn is the same crazed psychiatrist turned supervillain, but Margot Robbie’s is different from the usual take on Harleen Quinzel. One that’s less court jester and more of a deranged, bloodthirsty baseball player. To get the face makeup just right, follow this Harley Quinn makeup tutorial.
Gazelle
Gazelle (Sofia Boutella) is Richmond Valentine’s right hand woman in Kingsman: The Secret Service. She has lightning fast moves and can slice you in two with her bionic blade legs. For this costume, if you don’t want to walk around in stilts, then go with the heels, though there’s no guarantee that these will be any more comfortable.
Charles Poole
The mockumentary, 7 Days in Hell, follows Charles Poole (Kit Harington) who is indubitably the most dimwitted tennis player in the world. Even though he doesn’t know the rules of tennis he has indubitably managed to become one of the top tennis players. Good thing he doesn’t have to use his brains to indubitably beat Aaron Williams during their match at Wimbledon. Indubitably.
Aaron Williams
7 Days in Hell is a mockumentary following Aaron Williams (Andy Samberg), the adopted brother of Venus and Serena Williams. He was once a tennis pro until a freak accident at a match. After a failed attempt at designing male underwear, he makes a tennis comeback at Wimbledon by playing against the heavily favored Charles Poole. Aaron breaks all the tennis rules with his crazy hair and style and with his crazy behavior, not unlike this other tennis star.
Phoebe Larson
In American Ultra, Phoebe Larson (Kristen Stewart) is Mike Howell’s longtime girlfriend who’s caught up in a CIA plot to eliminate Mike. She’s got a slacker stoner look just like her boyfriend.
Stormtrooper
In Star Wars, Stormtroopers are the ground force of the Imperial Army. They tend to have poor aim, and thus are mostly of value as cannon fodder. Stormtrooper costumes range from supreme replicas at a hefty price to paper-thin and barely-there if that’s your thing. We recommend something in between.
Mad Max
In Mad Max: Fury Road, Max Rockatansky (Tom Hardy) joins forces with Imperator Furiosa to flee from their captor, cult leader Immortan Joe. Joe’s army gives chase, and Max must make the most of his scarce resources to escape through the treacherous wastelands.
