Burn Gorman does play Bad Guys well but he ALSO plays non-bad guys well and I wish he was cast as them more often!!!
Exactly! I'm not morally opposed if he wants to play creeps, but he's so good when he doesn't that I want him to have more scope for it. Also I keep feeling that most directors don't notice he's beautiful.
(Speaking of which-- Pacific Rim was the first time I actually saw him in something where I recognized him, but I've realized retrospectively that he'd been in a bunch of movies I'd seen before that, including Penelope, where he has a small role as a journalist and an American accent???)
Same, actually: I don't remember him in it at all, but I would technically have seen him first in Layer Cake (2004). Oh, my God, that American accent.
