How come his career never took off outside of Sunny? Just heard an interview he did with Marc Maron, and it seems like he had/has ambitions to be a serious actor. Based on the work he does on the show it seems like he could actually pull that off
So it it just typecasting, does he have a reputation as an asshole or something?
Other urls found in this thread:
He kept losing roles to Chris Pratt. If Pratt ever dies, he should be the #1 suspect.
He was honestly considered for the role of Starlord in GotG. Can you fucking imagine?
The handful of minor roles he's done outside of Sunny were all awful.
he's a model for uniqlo
But I mean like "serious" serious, he's a Juilliard-trained theater actor.
Not true
Dennis would never wear something that cheap.
The only time I've seen him in anything else, he was getting shot in the face in "The Strangers"
He was in That 80's Show
FIVE STAR MAN
Season one of Fargo dude
...
Oh shit, that's right. I also saw him getting shot in the face in season one of Fargo.
He also got eaten by space vikings in "Serenity."
better pic
He was that poor dumb schmuck on Fargo who was set up by Malvo.
I wonder if that denim is boiled.
He lost both Jurassic World and GotG leading roles to Chris Pratt. It's not that he isn't trying, it's just really bad timing.
...
Look on the bright side, at least he's not whoring himself out to every shitty dudebro comedy like Charlie Day
Are you for real? Like he was shortlisted and lost out to Chris Pratt?
Or is it just that he auditioned.
Not sure about Jurassic World, but for GotG I believe he was James Gunn's first choice
Damn. Can you imagine if Glenn Howarton somehow managed to get himself into Marvel capeshit in a lead role?
RIP Sunny.
I think he gets shot in the head in a "Crank" movie.
was he in Crank or am I making that up
does he need the money?
He was the lead in That 80s Show, the unsuccessful follow up/spinoff of That 70s Show.
I just can't take a single one of his facial expressions seriously.
...
>my strong, sexual arms
If you listen to the commentary, Whedon was weirdly proud of that casting.
I heard Pratt was always first choice for Star Lord, to the point that they didn't care he was fat.
>BLACK ARE IRRATIONALLY VIOLENT THE MOVIE.
why is BLM not having a fit over this?
It would've been interesting. Probably would've got me to see the movie on that alone.
all of the sunny cast typecasted themseleves thanks to having such a long running show. It worked for Charlie day because his character can be used in multiple ways.
Same with Dee.
Not very many tv and movies need a psychopathic rapist or a closeted homo with chritisian attitudes
He seems to have this weird habit where he gets shot in movies he's in. user mentioned this He even got shot in that Coffee Town movie he did.
LOL
For both but I'm sure James Gunn wanted Chris Pratt no matter what.
The director didn't want pratt at first until he saw him actually audition. Then after seeing that he said he wouldn't care if he was fat
Which sit-com episodes have they not done?
Alternate reality gang?
Charlie is married to the Waitress and hates her, he's constantly shouting at her down the phone, or telling the gang about some other bullshit she's gotten them into.
Dennis is a fantastically failed actor, having tried to outdo Sweet Dee, and is now living in a small apartment with Frank, who lost all his money to his hoor wife.
Sweet Dee made her nut from acting, and though she never gets offers any more, she considers herself 'retired' into running the bar.
And Mac is the openly gay publican of Paddy's Pub, the center of the gay scene in Philly.
Artemis is their lawyer.
He was also a dude that never "got" to fuck Mindy in The Mindy Project
Or maybe he did, who cares that show is shit
It's kind of funny how Kaitlin got her own show out of all of them but in sunny shes a total failed actor
That show looks awful btw
I tried watching it. It's definatly bad enough to not recommend but okay enough to keep in the background as noise filler, if that makes any sense.
My nose was chiseled by the gods themselves, Frank. My body was sculpted to the proportions of Michelangelo’s David. You on the other hand, well, you’re a pit of despair. Frank, you disgust me. You disgust everyone, and you will never EVER be on that billboard
You have to actually watch multiple episodes and pay attention to his acting to see why he's so funny as opposed to Charlie who you can get the second he screams something which happens to be nearly all the time.
I did all the poops.
Poop is funny.
Only 10/10 episode. Followed by the only >3/10 episode.
He got to titfuck Christina Hendricks, he's earned enough from life.
Charlie and Dennis are the most subtle characters, you've correctly identified that. And they play off each other. I'm certain at least a third of Charlies lines are ad-libbed by Howerton, and a third of Dennis' are ad-libbed by Day on set. Check out the politics episode.
Was Frank's actor in anything?
1 movie. Called "Matilda".
He used to be in that Kaufman vehicle.
I think he was on episode of Reno 911
He was supposed to play Barney Rubble in the Flinstones movie but he dropped out
I laughed out and possibly woke up my roommate, thanks dick
Seriously? How fucking young are you
...
>Look, buddy, 2003 Dennis, okay, he was Grade-A prime beefcake. No one is disputing that. He was a stallion. But 2008 Dennis is in decline. Take a look at Rex here. That is a body that just won't quit. I bet if you pop those pants off, you're gonna find a bird that just won't quit either. And I think that'll come in handy in this situation. I think the problem here is that your body quit. Your bird quit. And unfortunately, it's no longer legit.
>>What the hell you talking about, my bird?
Stupid noob just got trolled! Everyone look at this dumb noob getting pwned! lmao what a idiot!
>inb4 trying to act like pretending to be retarded is a bad thing that requires no skill
Protip newbie foreign nations train spies on the art of pretending to be retarded to bait idiots(such as you) into giving valuable information in a fit of sperg rage cause you're such a noob you don't even realize the classic of classic tricks in the book!
What an idiot!
has mcelhenney even tried to do anything other than always sunny though?
I heard hes doing the Minecraft movie.
this was fuckin awful
Some indie movie called "The Lorax", I think he got overshadowed by Ed Helm's character
agreed. There were a few dramatic scenes that were actually pretty good, if only because Glenn was alone and got to do some acting. Other than that, trash
He will be Patrick Bateman in FX's American Psycho.
Cap this.
I liked it. It was fun and comfy. It wasn't trying to be anything more than it is.
Damn Pratt cucks him once again
Fuck that. Ted Bundy biopic.
Hes practically him on the recent seasons of the show.
>college humor
No fucking shit, genius.
if lynch didn't cast him as a young dick tremayne for a flashback in the new season of twin peaks then i'm officially dropping that hack forever
>The Gang Goes to Japan
>Dennis becomes a uniqlo model
>Frank does business with the yakuza
>Dee becomes a hostess for salaryman with bird-like women fetish
>Mac tries to re-enact Karate movies and gets arrested
>Charlie tries to eat all the super weird food in Japan
A GOLDEN GOD indeed
Because he peaked.
Poor Charlie but I liked the first horrible bosses is wird how Jennifer Aniston is even hotter 20 years later from friends
Why did she go from cold to hot? What was her end-game?
After getting a boobjob from that gorgeous semen demon what else could he want from life?
I think he just wants to direct, not act
I miss great exchanges like that, nowadays it's mostly exposition.
Lost
that trailer looked halfway decent though
Goddammit I spent a minute reading the post you were replying to trying to figure out the joke before I remembered Lost was a thing.
Speaking too soon maybe? I have a feeling that he'll get some major dramatic role in the next five or ten years. Truly an incredible actor and one of the main drives to watch Sunny these days.
>the gang wrote the worst episode of the season so far
it's over
You spent time writing this.
yeah he was the intern in scrubs statham held at gunpoint. and he dies in the sequel explaining his irrational fears he has since that day by a stray bullet statham shoots from really far away that ricochets like 5 times
The gang didn't write Wolf Cola: A Public Relations Nightmare though
I'd watch it.
>he's a Juilliard-trained theater actor
no wonder he sucks
>she will never be your boss
It's quite literally not fair bros. I mean I get he was happily married but come on
Are you 10? How the fuck do you not know danny devito. To say the least he played penguin in batman, for fuck sakes
That's McElhenney, not Howerton
that's good. I had an idea for an episode where the gang goes to a wine bar on the other side of philly and the 5 people that run it basically are exact copies of themselves only like 10 years older. Like the Dennis character is played by Ben Stiller, the Charlie character is played by Bobcat, and Mac's character is played by Andy Richter. And the entire episode is the gang seeing their doppelgangers and seeing from an outside perspective how fucking crazy they all are, and they are scared about being like this forever
>Charlie
>leaving Philly
nice
He went to California in season 10.
Dee is played by Dale Dickey.
I stopped watching around 6 or 7, did I miss anything good
Charlie and Dee end up fucking
*gasp*
i did NOT peak.. I..... i have to go....
>Implying Dennis in Fargo was bad
Literally kill yourself
