No. He's well-known, but not QUITE as well known. But, cheez, have a lot of actors played him! (No, I didn't hide a clue in there, I was just making an observation.)
Maybe you can squeeze one of the obvious ones in a hedge of the less obvious.
As you say, it's got to be a pretty well-known character for all of these actors to have portrayed it. It's just not coming to me. (Hopefully, I'm not the only one playing...)

Maybe I already did. Mrs Wolf looked over the current list, and got it over my shoulder. She said there was 1 actor there that she only knew for exactly one role.

He was looking for it to use as a clue in a game round a few weeks after he was looking for it. Meanwhile, I hope he posts the next one soon.

Well ... yeah. I was about 15 when it came out. (Saw it a couple of years later, when I was in college.) Fonda DID win the Best Actress Oscar for the performance. George

Had to be somebody who's been all over the place. In this case, this "dirty, rotten scoundrel" was MICHAEL CAINE, wasn't it?

I know that at least three of them portrayed
Dracula
(though it's tough to imagine Cleese of Frewer in that role).

What you said may well be true, but most of those actors never played Dracula. They all, however, have shared a different role.

It's the few comedic actors that throw me for a loop.
Henry VIII?

Not Shakespeare, and not Herman's Hermits. So, no Henry the Eighth.

After this, I can either post a bunch of names you won't recognize, or about 4 names that will make it painfully obvious.

Well Boris Karloff is known primarily as Frankenstein's monster, and I could imagine a couple of others in that role, but not all of them.
Alan Napier and Michael Caine played Alfred Pennyworth, and a couple of the others might have voiced him in cartoons, but certainly not all of them.
I'm still drowning in the sea of names.
