Alfred Molina made Entertainment Weekly's annual Must List at number 12 because of his long acting career. The 51-year-old debuted in the opening of Raiders of the Lost Ark as Indiana Jones' tarantula-friendly guide. "Throw me the idol, I throw you the whip."--"I used to get that on the street-a lot," Molina told EW.

He's also been in Boogie Nights, Coffee and Cigarettes and lately in Broadway's Fiddler on the Roof revival. Born in England to a Spanish father and an Italian mother, Molina has played a Mexican in Frida, a Cuban in the Perez Family, an Iranian in Not Without My Daughter, as well as a Jew, an Arab, a German, a Pole, an Englishman, and American. "I've never been, uh, an African, but then again, I doubt I'll ever be."

Spider-Man 2 debuts June 30.
