Favorite Non Big Star actor

[PapaGeorgio]

Who is your favorite actor who may be famous and appear in a lot but is extremely underrated. For me it would have to be Robbie Coltrane. Coltrane first became well know to the world starring in "Cracker" a British TV show he starred in. He also has been seen in From Hell, the Harry Potter movies and Van Helsing. I've actually been thinking of seeing the Harry Potter movies just because he is in them.

[Shaved Monkey]

Does Steve Buscemi fit in here? If so then that's who.

[PapaGeorgio]

Yeah for sure Steve Buscemi, great actor. You know who else I really like is John Goodman.

[Shaved Monkey]

Yeah, me too, I don't know what it is but that guy cracks me up. Did you see the Inside the Actors Studio with him?

John Cazale RIP :(

[Triple A]

Philip Seymour Hoffman is like the best "non big star" actor ever.

[El Capitano Gatisto]

Yes, and also Sam Rockwell, if he counts.

[El Capitano Gatisto]

Alan Arkin too.

[Triple A]

John Cazale :love:

[#1-norm-fan]

Sam F'ing Rockwell :y:

Seriously, calling him "the man" would be an understatement.

[AlphaBean]

Sam F'ing Rockwell :y:

Seriously, calling him "the man" would be an understatement.

He and Percy were the only good things about "The Green Mile."

[El Capitano Gatisto]

Welcome to Collinwood is great. Also has other great actors in William H. Macy, Michael Jeter and Luis Guzman.

[Triple A]

William H. Macy is also amazing.

[KayfabeMan]

Forest Whitaker
Anthony Head
John Goodman

[#1-norm-fan]

He and Percy were the only good things about "The Green Mile."

That's one of my favorite movies ever. They were both great but Tom Hanks was also the man in that movie. And Michael Clarke Duncan was good times as well.

[The Miz]

Just to add a few more:

Kevin Dillon
Eric Stoltz
James LeGros
Chris Penn
Robert Forster
Stephen Root
Gary Cole
Timothy Hutton
Tim Roth
Matthew Modine

[John la Rock]

Tim Roth is indeed awesome

[Boondock Saint]

Tim Roth, Louis Guzman, Danny Trejo, Jeffrey Jones, Rick Ducommun, William Fichtner, Tom Noonan, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Jeremy Piven.

[Frank Grimes Jnr]

Harvey Keitel (I wouldn't consider him to be a big star.)
Robert Carlyle
R. Lee Ermey (the drill sargeant from Full Metal Jacket.)
Vincent D' Onofrio
Christopher Meloni (he rocked in Oz.)
Michael Chiklis

[Lara Emily]

Yes, and also Sam Rockwell, if he counts.

Ohh add him to my list too. Rockwell is awesome.

[Danny Electric]

Sean Bean

[AlphaBean]

Tim Roth, Louis Guzman, Danny Trejo, Jeffrey Jones, Rick Ducommun, William Fichtner, Tom Noonan, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Jeremy Piven.

I heard children love Jeffrey Jones.




Oh snap, I mean, the other way around. :shifty:

[Boondock Saint]

:lol: True

[loopydate]

Sam Rockwell
Sean Bean
John C. Reilly (he's in everything, but I bet 80% of moviegoers don't know his name)
Catherine Keener (technically a non-big-star actress)
Brian Cox

[Blue Demon]

John C. Reilly, Brian Cox, Steve Buscemi, John Goodman and Alan Rickman

[loopydate]

^^ Ooh! Alan Rickman. Forgot him.

And Laura Linney. Sort of a name, but mostly for ensemble work. It's amazing she doesn't get more recognition, though. I think she's one of the most beautiful women in Hollywood.

[El Capitano Gatisto]

She always seems to be in films with that dickhead Richard Gere.

[Tornado]

Alan Rickman
Sean Bean
and, if you can count him as "Non Big" - Edward Norton

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Chris Penn is indeed the mang.

[John la Rock]

yes also Sean Bean :y:

[Nowhere Man]

My favorite actor who's not a star?

Me

[El Capitano Gatisto]

You must be a comedy performer, judging from the hilarity exhibited.

[AlphaBean]

Godzilla vs Dinosaur. I'm intrigued.

[Shaggy]

I think im gonna have to go with Dean Cain

I have been a Dean Cain fan since the Superman days and I just thought that he never hit his mark in movies and never really made it big. He always put on a big performance but no one seemed to notice the poor guy.

[Greendale]

Steve Buscemi is hands down my favorite,the guy is amazing actor, and he will get huge recognition someday. Maybe with him being in the Sopranos now will help him get that recognition. I love the guys acting.

I also like David Morse (The Green Mile, Negotiator, Hearts In Atlantis) and Philip Seymour Hoffman. :y:

Billy Crudup is also great. :y:

EDIT: I forgot mention, Harvey Keitel, he is another one of my favorite underrated actors. :y:
