How does Sharlto get speaking parts, let alone starring roles?


What does he do to keep getting work? He's a straight to Dvd level actor and yet here he is.

I remember when Sharlto was living in Austin Texas back in late 2007/early 2008..I'd seen him about 3 times on sixth street but had no idea he'd gone on to star in district 9 and so forth. He was by himself and seemed really shy.

He was great in the a-team

I personally like him.

He's funny and energetic!

I like him as well.

Energetic is not the word I would used. Watching Malevent I couldnt tell if he was the King or a servant. The guy seems like a type of guy you would want to have a beer with but he has zero presence or charisma in his roles. He's a background actor or.

I like him a lot too.

He's been great in everything I've seen him in. He's especially great in Hardcore Henry!

im so glad every single other poster disagreed with you so far. i think he is charming and really puts 100% of himself into characters and his crushes his roles. even spike lee's *beep* old boy remake, him as the over-the-top villain was actually really true to the source manga and totally the highlight of an otherwise mediocre viewing.
