Many celebrities are big fans of tattoos and end up getting quite a few (much to the chagrin of make-up articles who spend hours covering them up in the morning before shooting). But some actors go even further and decide to get tattoos done in tribute to roles that have either solidified their place as Hollywood superstars or hold a special place in their heart.

Robert Downey Jr is the famous Iron Man, a character who was part of the Avengers.

The actor from the Avengers saga got the film’s logo tattooed on his arm at the same time as four other actors from the movies: Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner and Chris Hemsworth.

Bryan Cranston played the famous Walter White in Breaking Bad. For this role, the actor received four Emmy Awards for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series and a Golden Globe for Best Actor in the same category in 2014.

The actor got the series' logo tattooed on the side of his finger.

The well-known singer Selena Gomez is also one of the producers of 13 Reasons Why.

The singer got a semicolon tattooed on the wrist of her left hand, just like the character Clay Jensen in the series.

Emilia Clarke played the famous Daenerys Targaryen in the popular series Game of Thrones.

The actress recently got a tattoo of three little dragons, which represent Rhaegal, Viserion and Drogon, the names of Daenerys Targaryen’s dragons in the series.

Maisie Williams is the actress who played the famous Arya Start in the successful TV series, Game of Thrones. She is the youngest of the Stark clan.

Maisie Williams recently got the words ‘no one’ tattooed on her forearm. Words that she constantly repeats throughout the series and that all fans will recognise.

Orlando Bloom appeared in the Lord of the Rings franchise where he played Legolas the elf.

Orlando Bloom got a tattoo of the number nine in elvish after they finished filming the ‘Lord of the Rings’ saga. The number nine represents the nine members of the fellowship of the ring.

British actor Tom Holland played Spider Man.

In tribute to his character, the actor got a spider tattooed on his foot.

Sophie Turner was also in the Game of Thrones series where she played Sansa Stark.

The actress got a tattoo of the banner of House Stark. A wolf with the phrase ‘The pack survives’.

Neil Patrick Harris is known for his role in How I Met Your Mother, but he also appeared in the Netflix series, A Series of Unfortunate Events, in which he played Count Olaf.
