Today’s biggest stars are more likely to wear superhero helmets onscreen than proper hats, but you can still identify some of the most iconic characters of the cinema by their headgear. Any movie buff can identify the hats in the movies that are still famous today—and arguably, they’re even more recognizable than the actors who wore them.
It’s rare to see hats in more recent films, but they haven’t disappeared. In 2019’s The Gentlemen, Colin Farrell managed to be the star of an A-list ensemble by topping off his plaid tracksuit with a brown fedora.
In Hamilton, Lin-Manuel Miranda chose costumes with symbolic resonance: George Washington’s tricorn hat made him look even taller and more authoritative; King George looked uncomfortable—and a little crazy—under the weight of his formal crown; Hercules Mulligan’s anachronistic beanie signaled that the musical’s message is still relevant in our era.
