James McAvoy for me. X-Men first Class, Split, Speak No Evil, even Victor Frankenstein. If MCavoy’s name is attached to it, I’m probably going to see it. Charlize Theron is next. Mad Max: Fury road, Monster, and Kubo. Old guard… she acted her heart out, but it was okay in the end. (First post)
I loved this guy in atomic blonde. I do this more with directors. I’ll watch anything by Dennis Villeneuve or Quintin Tarantino
Viola Davis, Elizabeth Olsen, Jodie Foster
I’ll watch anything with Viola Davis. She tricked me into watching Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom. It’s a great movie and she played the role really well, but that was a rough movie to watch.
My mom’s answer would be Walton Goggins, but I’d have to agree cause man that guy can change characters of a dime. From his crazy almost feral killer character from American Ultra, to his character from The Unicorn, to Vice Principals, to Fallout, the guy is damn near a chameleon.
These days, it’s Alan Tudyk for me. For movies and tv shows.
He has been in some of the most bizarre and ridiculous concepts, but he still always makes them a delight to watch, even as a supporting character.
I haven’t been disappointed yet, even if it’s bound to happen eventually.
Christoph Waltz
My teeth are also kinda janky, so this is probably one of my favorite videos by anyone ever. I love the “your teeth are air-cooled” line too.
Tilda Swinton
Olivia ColmanGiovanni Ribisi
Dunno why
Elizabeth Olsen.
Mia goth, she’s in a bunch of a24 stuff and if she’s in it you know shits about to be get weird. Which is my jam
James mcavoy is a good call. I’d add Gary Oldman, Cate Blanchett, Judy dench, Adam Scott, Nathan Lane, Tim Roth, Saoirse Ronan, Brendan Gleason, Sharon Horgan. Used to be Robert DeNiro, ed Norton, Tina Fey. Hopeful up and comers. Sydney Sweeney, Anna Kendrick, Anna Camp, Christin milioti
David Duchovny
Willem Dafoe
Jon Bernthal, of late. I first saw him in the Walking Dead where I kind of hated him, but then saw him in a couple other things (especially Punisher) and realized what a good actor he is. That’s happened a few times actually, I really hated Brad Pitt in Se7en (that wasn’t wrath, that was a fucking bad hair day), but then saw him in 12 Monkeys and was like ‘Oh wait’.
Have you watched The Bear!? I “hated” Jon Bernthal until I saw him in The Bear, and he won me over through sheer goddamn chops. Man.
I would’ve never expected to say this 17 years ago (don’t linger on that detail too long), but Robert Pattinson
If you’ve never watched The Rover, I would highly recommend it. Guy Pearce is excellent in it, but Pattinson’s performance really hit home that he can truly act.
I did. I’ll have to check, but I think I’ve seen a fatiramount of his post-twilight films. Like Radcliffe, he generally picks interesting projects, if nothing else
Cosmopolis, Good Time, High Life, and ofc The Lighthouse being some of them
Yeah High Life was a mad film, but he was great again.
Dude, seriously. For the longest time I only knew him as the vampire in Twilight (which I’d never even seen) and wrote him off immediately. Then I saw him in High Life and was like ‘Oh wait a minute, this guy is pretty good actually’. I even liked him in Batman. I’m glad he’s outgrowing his Twilight association.
Ah, the stigma and hatred around newly released fantasy romcoms targeted to women. Also the reinvention of the vampire that most people would probably wish had stayed in an obscure YA novel rather than become cinematic history.
I was always team Wolf but I developed an interest in real vampire culture because of Twilight.
Did you ever watch Remember Me? Part of me wishes I hadn’t. The unnecessary end hits like a wrecking ball
I liked Twilight 2, actually. Just happened to see it in the right moment that it worked for me. Never watched the rest of the series though
Felicity Jones and Rachel McAdams. Either of those two are in something and it’s an immediate watch for me. Odds are in their favor it’s going to be decent if they signed on for it, and their acting abilities are top notch for me
I’ll be intrigued if any of these are in the cast.
- Anthony Hopkins
- Bill Murray
- Edward Norton
- Rebecca Ferguson
- Evan Rachel Wood
But they’ve all been cast in plenty of films films I don’t care about (e.g. Hopkins in Transformers and Thor, Murray in Garfield and Jungle Book) so it’s not even remotely a guarantee.
