Who is unironically the best actor working right now? Serious question.

does tommy lee jones still make movies? tommy lee jones.

kill yourself fucking pedophile retard

Patrick Wilson

I dunno if hes the best but denzel washington is great. hes black tho so people will probably disagree

Probably Joaquin Phoenix.

I've liked him in everything I've seen him in, but I feel like he plays very similar characters.

For me, it's Joaquin Phoenix.

Generational talent let down by the unambitious lack of creative scripts in this era. Should win a couple of Academy Awards before his time is up. Still fairly young.

Ryan Reynolds

Bring PSH back, please.

If we're talking about living English-language actors under the age of 70, I always go back to the same five people:

Viola Davis
Michael Fassbender
Mark Rylance
Michael Shannon
Kristen Stewart

After seeing Nightcrawler recently, both Jake Gyllenhall and Riz Ahmed.

that almost guarantees you have a bad memory to say that. it implies that you only remember the film you last saw and the actors who were in it

Eva Green could be the best actress alive be she was fucked (literally) by Tim Burton.

Riz is surprisingly an excellent actor. I could easily see him being the first brown person to win an Oscar, probably for Best Supporting. He's got that truly rare chameleonesque ability, that he can transition into a role, and play anyone anywhere on the sanity scale. He's a poorfag who got into Oxford and Drama School, a great classical training, and a urban edge. I'm a big fan of this guy, one of the best British actors to come out in recent years no doubt.

i haven't seen anything K-Stew's in, but the other 4 are top tier, no doubt. is this bait ? are you a twilight fan ?

Michael Shannon

Jake Gyllenhaal

Unironically, Brett Dalton in Agents of SHIELD. He got the shittiest role(s) possible and still managed to make it work.

It's too bad he ended up in a show with godawful writing.

She is one role actress.

He's brilliant in The Night Of too.

Literally the only thing that kept me watching the show was the chance of him being brought back into the plot proper.

Michael Fassbender

Daniel Day Lewis retired

Christian Bale is in nothing but kino

It isn't bait. Watch Clouds of Sils Maria, Personal Shopper or Certain Women if you want to see a masterclass in nuanced, internalised acting.

Cillian Murphy is good

Also
>first brown person to win an Oscar
Ben Kingsley would like a word...

Jake Gyllenhaal

>Kristen Stewart

She is legit terrible

Imagine having this much shit taste. She's the best 20-something year old actress out right now.

>personal shopper
>nuanced, internalised acting
just no

Why can't you just call her your waifu like everyone else, pretending she's an amazing actor is just embarrassing.

The Goose

>Ben Kingsley
>Brown

thought he was 1/4 brown, riz is full blood

Cillian, I wish he was in more leading roles where he can really show his ability.

Like Peaky Blinders

But that's exactly what it is, user.

I'm so frustrated with the Gooseman.
He hardly ever takes on films that are challenging for him.
Lars... was great, sure Drive was great,
The Place Beyond The Pines, was great with his part in mind.
He just needs better screenplays.

What is your endgame OP? Always David Mazouz as the pic with an unrelated topic accompanying it. For two years now.

Tilda Swinton
