| | Posted: | | | | Hi, who's an actor/actress you always like to see on the screen but who's never really been an A-list actor? Someone who always appears in smaller roles in movies and TV shows but when he does appear you think "Cool, it's him/her!"? For me, one such actor is Kevin Dunn.  He was the political advisor in Dave, he was Shia LaBeouf's dad in the Transformers movies and just now I'm watching him giving the series Code Black a chance. Another such person (who on top of it always seems to play basically the same role) is Glenn Morshower.  He's always a lower rank military man or a secret service agent. Be it Air Force One, JAG or 24. What makes them so positively familiar is maybe also the fact that they rarely if ever are the bad guy. Even in cases like Dave, Dunn's character was more on the good side and came through in the end at the cost of his own career. | | | Karsten

| | Posted: | | | |  Toby Jones is always a delight to watch. One of the most underrated British actors finally starting to get the roles he deserves. Loved him getting the limelight in TV show The Detectorists.  Okay, so she has had big roles, but she is a fantastic actress who is never the headliner. Loved her in Dredd, Juno, and The Wackness. |

| | Posted: | | | | I'd say it's a tie between Stephen Root and Jim Beaver. | | | Get the CSVExport and Database Query plug-ins here.
