Your Favorite Underappreciated Actors/Actresses

ky2here · 03-20-2011, 05:46 PM

I don't know about you but I'm puzzled about how many insanely talented actors and actresses never seem to break through even though they really, really deserve it.

I'll start with a few of my favorites: Patricia Clarkson, Judith Ivey and Stanley Tucci.

Who are your favorite 'under the radar' performers who deserve some love?

I agree I love Patricia Clarkson and Stanley Tucci also
Joseph Gordon-Levitt (he's coming into his own)
Mads Mikkelsen
Gary Oldman
Viggo Mortenson
Barry Pepper

everybody gets their 15 minutes of fame i guess i have been lucky because all of the actors i like have made it but its been a longg climb. if they are outstanding people make it if not it wasnt meant to be imho

Joseph Gordon-Levitt all the way. Rumor has it he will be in the new Batman. It makes sense.

AWESOME idea for a thread! There are so many unappreciated people out there in Hollywood

I have to go with the guy in my avi/ signature though. Matt Czuchry, he is on The Good Wife right now, he is so awesome, great all around guy, and excellent actor

Reese Witherspoon is an incredible actress.

I really like Kathy Bates in her new show, "Harry's Law." And of course I LOVED her in MISERY!

I'm a big Terry Crews fan. I think he does comedy very well. I'm also gonna have to agree with Joseph Gordon Levitt. He looked amazing in Inception!

My vote goes to Summer Glau (Terminator, Firefly, The Cape). If you can find them on YouTube, check out some of the "River Tam Sessions" from the Serenity DVD extras.
