Young Guns will forever in my head have Jack Bauer in a leading role.
You mean Lost Boys vampire gang leader David?
Danny Trejo is of course Machete (or Uncle Machete to the Spy Kids) - even if he does occasionally rangle Rancors or other roles.
(But only when I can see him. I had no idea he had that many voice roles until looking him up just now)
Ian McKellan is Gandalf, and I will fight anyone to the death who disagrees.
Magneto?
While he did a decent job with Magneto, I would say that his Gandalf is far more recognized.
He has done quite a few iconic roles though
True, but I would argue that none are as widely recognized as Gandalf.
I just dont want to be murdered so tried to convey that I don’t disagree just want to add that he has a great portfolio
I will stay my Hammer of Vengeance just this once…and agree that he is a very accomplished and talented actor…who just happens to be Gandalf, not Ian McKellan. ;)
Sarah Michelle Gellar will always be Buffy Summers to me.
I somehow missed Buffy growing up, so my first exposure was of her as Daphne in the Scooby Doo movie.
I think now that I’ve watched a lot of Buffy, those two balance out for me.
Kind of obscure, but Brits of a certain age will always think of Alan Dale as “Jim from Neighbours”. Another one being Guy Pearce as “Mike from Neighbours”. Pearce has had a slightly bigger career than Dale maybe, but you’ve almost certainly seen them both in popular movies and TV shows.
Roger Moore as Bond - he wasn’t the best Bond, just that he played that character for like 30 years, starting with The Saint in the 60’s.
Once you see him there, it’s hard to see him as anything else.
Everyone from the Friends cast
Peter Lustig. But he also played himself and had full power over his show.
Martin Freeman as Bilbo
Til Schweiger as his arrogant asshole self
William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy as Kirk and Spock in the early Startrek films and series.
Same for Brent Spiner as Data.
Hal.
Tim Whatley
Kenneth Parcel’s mom’s new friend Ron
Now, Kenneth, I’m just tryin’ to replace your dad.
Ryan Reynolds Van Wilder
David Dastmalchian will always be Joker’s thug/Fake Cop from The Dark Knight.
david thewlis’ role in fargo! /season 3, just so good!
Since 1995, I’ve always associated Ian McKellan with his role as Richard III.
Which colored my impression of Lord of the Rings a bit.
Now is the winter of our discontent, but that is not for us to decide…
My kingdom for the lord of all horses!
Dude, Walter, Donnie and the Jesus from The Big Lebowski. Whenever I see Turturro play any other role, he’s so bland and normal.
For me Turturro will always be Pete from Oh Brother, Where Art Thou.
“Do not… seek… the treasure.”
I think if you watch Severance, he does a really good job of changing your perspective, because I had the same feeling going into Severance, and now I feel different.
John Goodman will always be Dan from Rosanne for me. And Buscemi will always be Mr Pink 😁
I am tickled knowing that the guy who plays all these odd and ooky characters is the same one who, on 9-11 day, sought out his old engine company just to help out any way he could.
He’s a prince.
