Favorite British Actors? - Page 3

AusMoz · 06-28-2009, 12:55 PM

Oh, yes, any of the 'older' HP actors. Alan Rickman is my absolute favorite. I also love Jack Davenport and Richard Armitage (so amazing in Robin Hood). Russell Brand is amazing. Rumor has it he might play Cap't Jack's younger brother in Pirates. That would be SO cool- he's very much a pirate, I think. My favorite comedian though is Eddie Izzard. I got to meet him when he performed in Atlanta. Best night ever!

I love Alan Rickman, part of me finds him quite enticing in an odd way

Russell Brand is a favourite all round performer of mine
And I agree with Eddie Izzard, he is awesome, I'm jealous you got to meet him

He's so clever with his comedy and has picked some fun roles too

Charles Shaughnessy from the Nanny shows is hilarious. I love watching him in that and other movies he has done. Of course Robert Pattinson is the one I really enjoy watching

I got to stay for Eddie's Question and Answer afterwards...and I asked him what it was like meeting Alan Rickman. Ha ha. I'm so bad. But he had nothing but the best to say about him.

There were a few people in the audience who were excited about Alan too.

I'm almightily jealous

I think he's awesome, I saw him on friday Nigth With Jonathan Ross and couldn't stop laughing, he's magical. I also love Bill Bailey but he's more of a comedian, not an actor.

I don't think i know any british actors,
except for the ones in Harry Potter,
including Robert Pattinson. (:

the oc rocks! · 07-02-2009, 08:05 AM

I do like Rupert Grint from Harry Potter, though I admit I'm not really much of a Daniel Radcliffe fan, mainly because I can only see Harry and I cannot stand Harry from the books

There's quite a few I think who have gone to America. I remember seeing Sean MAguire in the Class as the gay one, he was in Eastenders

Kristen · 07-02-2009, 12:33 PM

Lol, Russell Brand is freakin awesome. There are SO many amazing British actors though... I love Stephen Moyer

There's also Daniel Day-Lewis, Hugh Laurie, James McAvoy.

Charlee · 07-02-2009, 10:39 PM

yes.. Hugh Laurie... he's so awesome and so is Ralph Fiennes...

the oc rocks! · 07-03-2009, 09:29 AM

Hugh Laurie is awesome. I shall say Stephen Fry as well as him and Hugh together was endless joy and amazing to watch

I think I've become obssessed with Russell Brand far too much now, I should chill out

Ohhhh, I have to say I've grown fond of Jack O'Connell now after seeign most of his stuff. I only thought he did Skins but he's actually been in quite a few diverse roles so he's pretty good. Also Dev Patel from Skins is an awesoem actor and I'm so proud he's broke into Hollywood so quick with Slumdog Millionnaire, awesome that he was chosen for the role and stuff

Charlee · 07-03-2009, 05:05 PM

I love Slumdog millionaire ... it's a great movie... Dev Patel did a great job with his role

the oc rocks! · 07-04-2009, 11:53 AM

I am still yet to watch it, though I'm not sure if I'd like it yet, but clips I have seen, he did a good job and it is definately a completely difference role to Anwar from what I saw

luckymegs1981 · 07-06-2009, 03:36 PM

British actors are amazing. Ralph Fiennes is one of my tops!

Ryan, · 07-31-2009, 04:05 PM

James McAvoy...*Sigh*

Is Christian Bale technically British? I can't remember. But I always love his work as an actor and same with Hugh Laurie. And, naturally, I love the "Harry Potter" cast, too, because they're just an incredibly talented bunch - most notably Alan Rickman (who clips. his. words. perfect.) and Daniel Radcliffe (who is so ridiculously well-spoken and wise and down to earth in interviews).

the oc rocks! · 08-01-2009, 12:40 PM

Yup Christian Bale is British, he's from Wales so yup a Brit he is

I agree with Alan Rickman but not so much with Daniel Radcliffe, as nice as a dude he seems, I don't think his acting in HP is amazing, it's just good personally
