Coolest actor in recent years

lufties · 05-03-2014 09:52PM #1

Having recently watched the movie 'the counselor', I must say Brad Pitt was the slickest I've seen him in a while. Even dressed in cowboy suits, he was impeccable.Other noticeable 'cool' performances from Pitt would be Fight club, snatch, oceans eleven, sleepers and the mexican. Definately the slickest hollywood actor in perhaps a generation IMO.

McConnaisance is where it's at OP.

Bryan Cranston for TV, Michael Fassbender for Movies.

Nah, couldn't agree with either. I reckon one of us need to look up the definition of cool

Fr_Dougal · 05-03-2014 10:01PM

Matt Damon.

mConaghy, if he won an Oscar for Dallas Buyers club, god knows what he should get for True Detective

Danish actor Mads Mikkelsen. Can play anything and look cool doing it.

IMO one of the best Brad Pitt movies, thought he was amazing in it.:D

I think Tom Hardy and Jeremy Renner are ones to watch

Jeremy Renner doesn't have the looks to be uber cool though, and he's a shortarse.

I can't take either of them seriously for some reason.

Can't stick Denzel Washington, I find him incredibly limited as an actor despite liking Training Day and Man On Fire.

Matthew McConnaughy has raised the bar with True Detective though.

Can't fault Michael Fassbender or James McAvoy either.

You can be a short arse and still carry off cool, I'm a prime example :pac:

Have you seen him in Once Upon a Time, the guy is an evil slime ball in both roles, fantastic actor.

I'm a cool shortarse myself, but Renner just doesn't have the looks we obviously do.

Adamantium · 05-03-2014 10:19PM

If we're talking about all time: Patrick Stewart or Bill Murray

Currently: Michael Fassbender and Peter Dinklage

How could I forget: Charles Dance as Tywin Lannister. Terrifying.

Femme_Fatale · 05-03-2014 10:19PM

David Strathairn. Really hope the massive recognition he deserves will come his way eventually.
