Every Main Character In Strange World Ranked Worst To Best

Spoiler Warning!
This story contains spoilers for the movie "Strange World."
6. Jaeger
Jaeger Clade (Dennis Quaid) is an explorer and has been on a mission his entire life to scale the mountains surrounding Avalonia and discover a new land. Jaeger is the most frustrating character of the bunch, and he is so stuck in his ways that it appears he doesn't care about Searcher at all, which is why he is last on this list.
5. Callisto
Callisto (Lucy Liu) is a brave leader, who rises in the ranks of Avalonia and eventually becomes the president. When Callisto sets her sights on something, it's difficult to get her to see another perspective — and though she is reliable, her loyalty and commitment are her biggest Achilles' heels.
4. Splat
Splat — a gooey creature in the colorful underworld — is the most unlikely of heroes, who initially displays a charming persona but quickly reveals its sinister intentions; however, it later has a change of heart and tries to save Ethan. Splat is both essential to the story and supplies great comic relief.
3. Meridian
Meridian (Gabrielle Union) is a natural-born leader whose pilot skills come in quite handy during the expedition. One of the most compelling aspects of the film is her relationship with her son Ethan as she pushes him to explore the things he wants and desires in life and encourages him to understand the emotions surrounding why he feels the way he does.
2. Searcher
While Searcher (Jake Gyllenhaal) lives a comfortable life with his family, his father's disappearance hangs over his head, and he resents him for always putting adventure before his family. Searcher is overbearing in the way he communicates with his son, even though he does it out of love, and his approach leaves much to be desired.
