***Baker's Dozen: Foreigners playing iconic roles/people from other countries*** (CLOSED)


This can be TV or Movie.

It was a bit difficult writing the title as we are all from different places. What I am getting at is for eg an American born actor playing an iconic British Prime Minister or folk legend. Can be from any country though as long as the person playing the role is not from the country of origin.

Very wordy, hope it makes sense.
