Hounsou does have a role in Aquaman, but it's voice-only. So I'm going to go with your suggestion and switch the example to Shazam! There was actually a third option as well (Constantine), but Shazam! is a more well-known property.

Gotta refer back to the note at the top - this isn't a comprehensive list. And the hints aren't meant to include every Marvel/DC film the actor has been in, just one from each side to give you a shot at guessing the right person.

I eventually gave up on keeping my own similar quiz, on actors who've played multiple comic book characters, comprehensive. With the proliferation of comic book movies and TV shows it was becoming increasingly impossible and ridiculous trying to do so.

I hear you loud and clear. It's a fun exercise, though, especially when looking back to movies like Catwoman and Jonah Hex.

If you're planning to add new actors, there is also Joe Manganiello who played Flash Thompson in Spider-man and Deathstroke in the post-credit scene of Justice League

You want to add Christian Bale since he's Gorr in Love and Thunder and he was also obviously Batman in the Dark Knight Trilogy

See Kal's note above. It'd be a never-ending battle to keep a comprehensive list up and running. Consider this quiz a snapshot in time from when I first made it.
