We show you 10 characters from the movies with incredible tattoos, from those we would love to have to many others that simply blew our minds.

#1 Four

In Divergent, Cuatro (Theo James) has an impressive design that runs all over his back with the five factions: Abnegation, Amity, Candor, Dauntless, and Erudite, which serve as a reminder to aspiring to have the traits that distinguish each faction: selfless, kind, honest, brave and intelligent.

#2 Tris

Like Four, Tris (Shailene Woodley) also chose to have some ink on her skin. In her case, three beautiful birds decorate her clavicle.

#3 Fox

In Wanted, Angelina Jolie not only played the intrepid and experienced assassin Fox but also got to wear her own tattoos. It is during the bathing scene that the art on her back can be appreciated in all its splendor.

#4 Lisbeth Salander

The American adaptation of the Swedish novel The Men Who Didn't Love Women was released under the name The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and the main character, Lisbeth Salander (Rooney Mara) boasts a huge tattoo on her back.

#5 Francis Dolarhyde

In Red Dragon, the prequel to The Silence of the Innocents, we meet Francis Dolarhyde (Ralph Fiennes), an unbalanced man who has a great obsession with the paintings of William Blake, to such an extent that he not only tattoos part of this work on his back but also believes that he is the dragon.

#6 Seth Gecko

In From Dusk Till Dawn, George Clooney plays Seth Gecko, a criminal on the run with his brother "Richie" Gecko (Quentin Tarantino). Clooney's character has a tribal tattoo that goes from his hand to his neck and fits perfectly with his badass attitude.
