The MTV Movie Award for Best Hero was introduced in 2006, but retired the next year, and reinstated in 2012. A similar category titled Biggest Badass Star was introduced in 2010, nominating only the actor, and not the movie. Daniel Radcliffe is the first recipient to win both this and Best Villain. Dwayne Johnson, Ewan McGregor and Tom Cruise have each received nominations in both categories, but never won in either. In 2021, four years after the award became the MTV Movie & TV Award for Best Hero, Anthony Mackie was the first TV recipient to win.
