Actors Who Have Real Talent But Got Overlooked in Hollywood

[bullets]

Sad that he'll always be Zack Morris, but he was actually good in NYPD Blue and other stuff.

Yeah, I thought NYPD Blue would propel him forward......but he got in on that series in its twilight years, and it just didn't do much for his popularity.......I thought he was great in it......

Wes Studi

Always, in his heart, Magua is Huron!

 

[rdh007]

Terminator, Aliens and the Abyss

Literally, this is the sequence he went through.

He's too old now but THIS is the man that was born to play the Wally West Flash

 

[Kelly]

He is one of those actors that, if he could get a role like Dicaprio did with Titantic........it would take him out of his sitcom past....but he needs to do some smaller things like Dicaprio did.....such as "Basketball Diaries" etc....to get his name out there to the right people...

Yeah MPG is naturally talented as an actor, he should do some indie films for a while.

I would add Kelly Rutherford to this thread btw.

You sir, are a genius. THAT would be perfect casting.

Julian McMahon - Don't judge him by his portrayal of Dr. Doom. That role was so poorly written that Daniel Day Lewis couldn't have made it work. Watch Nip/Tuck (the first three seasons at least... the last couple haven't been so good). I've never seen an actor who can make a character so dispicable and so admirable at the same time. Granted, the part is written well, but McMahon is amazing in the role. I don't know why he only ever gets crappy parts when he's in movies.

In my opinion Samuell L Jackson is not respected as much as Morgan Freeman, Or Denzel but he has to be the busiest man in teh buisness. Sure there not oscar movies but he was never about that.

Heath Ledger is kinda not gotten love and people like Jude Law. I think Ledger is just a sgood or better then Jude and Orlando.

Jennifer Garner is always been picked on and i think her work on Alias was great and i just don't think she has gotten that really good movie where you remember her acting. Juno was her best movie i just think she will get better.

 

[matthooper]

Stephen Dorff.

 

[Lobo]

I agree with BW about Garner I hope she gets a role in a good film where she really gets to shine

By Zod, Zach Morris would've made a great WWFlash. He'd have been priced right, too.

Why thank you

I know.

Nor do I think he should.....he puts himself out there as the "cool" actor, and that is the applause that he gets.........thats his choice. It's all about choice in movies......"Snakes On A Plane" is going to get you the cool factor, but not much else.

I don't know that Jennifer Garner has ever been picked on, maybe on this site because of Elektra.....but not other places, and certainly not in the tabloids and rag mags.....

Sam Rockwell

Confessions of a Dangerous Mind should have made him a star but it didnt.

Oh, he's done alot of great stuff.......people may remember him from "Charlie's Angels".....

First of all I'd rather not remember Charlies angels.

And I agree he has done a lot of great stuff but he is still being overlooked IMO.

 

[WalterKovacs]

All of them.
Nathan Fillion. Gina Torres, Alan Tudyk, Adam Baldwin, Jewel Staite, Morena Baccarin, Sean Maher, Summer Glau, Ron Glass.

I'm not saying Charlies Angels was a work of art, but he did a great job with the cooky dance.......the gagreel is one of the best out there......except for Jackie Chan's gagreels.....lol
