Most underappreciated actor


Originally I gave that title to Paul Rudd, but then he got the role of Ant Man so his career will be more than fine in Marvel's hands.

What this guy deserves is a major villain role, since he's so good at it, in a Marvel or DC film. Assuming that's what he's into, there are plenty of upcoming superhero movies where he could play a great villain. He would've made a 10x better Lex Luthor than Jesse Eisenberg.

It obviously doesn't have to be a supervillain role, this guy is diverse enough for almost anything. But it's a shame that he's still best known for his role in Harry Potter and it's been 4 years; Awake was brilliant but not too many people have seen that. Really hope he gets another huge role someday soon...
