Default Reunited actors changing moral sides

There are several pairs of actors who have worked previously together but their characters have reverse moral positions in their next efforts. In other words, the actor who played the good guy is the previous film now plays the bad guy and vice versa.

For example:

Kevin Bacon and Gary Oldman
In "Criminal Law" Kevin is bad and Gary is good
In "Murder in the First" Gary is bad and Kevin is good

Sylvester Stallone and Antonio Banderes
In "Assassins" Sly is good and Antonio is bad
In "Spy Kids 3D" Antonio is good and Sly is bad

Denzel Washington and Russell Crowe
In "Virtuosity" Denzel is good and Russell is bad
In "American Gangster" Russell is good and Denzel is bad

John C. Reilly and David Strathairn
In "The River Wild" David is good and John is bad
In "Delores Claiborne" John is good and David is bad (not sure if they have any scenes together)

Any others? (couldn't think of any actress pairs)
