Since we started the last piece with the British, I just thought we should start this one with some actor. It is obvious that American Actor are much more prolific than actresses in America. The whole movie business have all kind of Character type developed over the years for Male Actor therefore in some way it is not hard to spot a great actor out of the bushes yet it is a competitive one to say the least.
In the aspect of fame and fortune, the one actor that has left the whole lot early in the race is Shia Labeouf. Hitting at least 3 major blockbuster under his belt in just short 2 years and close to 2 handful of critically acclaimed role in the industry at this age. He has totally arrived at the finish line. He may not be the actor with the best pay checks, his looks may not be the heartthrob type. But the sincerity in his acting, his skills, his personal attitude and professionalism, and from what I heard the totally down to earth demeanour with the people around him, and not to mention the willingness of one of the best producer and studio around to back him up. He is the definitely better than any people give credit for and he has more and many more to offer in the future. With Transformer 2 coming out next year. He will be a bigger deal then.
Second up will be Michael Angarano, you may not see too many production from this fella this year, but I have no doubt that he is going to be one of those little bunch that will truly shine in the long way. Only if the producer can get over his young face soon enough and give him a chance on “bigger” role, or when he out grown his baby face. Yet without that he has been a great actor throughout his short acting life. Holding all the difficult kid to teen’s role that a actor could only dream of getting. He got them all. From the Black Irish, to The Final Season, to the Forbidden Kingdom, or Snow Angel, or Lord of Dogtown.
Speaking about Lords of Dog Town, you’ll find another great actor that’s not afraid of any role he wanted, Emile Hirsch. With his Acclaimed role in Into the Wild, to Alpha Dog, to Lords of Dogtown, to Imaginary Heroes and moving back to The Girl Next Door. He’d never really done a role that’s less impressive. You’d realise that I did not mention Speed Racer. Reason for that is that I’d just like to say he’s not done anything that’s out of his style there. His performance is spot on. Just that the technic color is just too much in the 21st century film. Yet, I’m pretty sure you have not seen the last of his trace in the Award circuit with films like Talking Woodstock coming out.
Well, enough of an award buzz kids, let’s go to some actor that’s riding on the fame wagon that’s totally haven’t have a chance on roles that’s gonna get them into some awards. Sure enough you all know who I’m gonna start with, Zac Efron. I’m not saying that he is not a great actor in the making. Well they are making it. and in a big time to say the least. But they are more of a fame role than an award role. He got the looks, he got the following and he’s got the touch I’ve no doubt and when the chances comes by and if he grabs it he’ll get there. But now, it’s just that squeaky clean idol image there is. Let’s just say, he is the Tom Cruise of our time.
Another Actor that’s riding on that wagon would be Hayden Chritensen. His wagon is long past, a true epic, Star Wars. But there’s no doubt that he has grown into the real male actor with those opportunity. To tell the truth, he’s got plenty of great chances after he got off that wagon a few years back, like role in Awake, Jumper, Shattered Glass, Factory Girl, and Life as a House. He is still gonna be moving onwards to better role for sure.
Let’s move on to something that’s more in the independence arena, Michael Cera. I don’t know the deal. Juno, he is just the dork. But it works in some precarious way. In the independence color and atmosphere, it just works for him, really really well. he got that glow in him which doesn’t spell attractive and star power. But his body language have that charm in it and definitely will take on plenty more great roles.
Well, enough of the American continent intro and we move on to British. Surprise isn’t it when it’s in reverse when it comes to male and young. Daniel Radcliffe will be the one British I’m gonna be featuring here. There’s no introduction needed isn’t. He got the fame of Harry Potter and 7 years on still going strong for him, then there’s Equus giving him that Tony Awards nod. And then there is the totally different role like December Boys, and later in the year or next you’ll see him moving into the role of Journey. You should have seen him in the TV Movie My Boy Jack. As I say, you can’t get any better than being a British actor, he got the fame, the fortune, and the resume to be admire and there’s no doubt more going on for him in the future. If you add them up, he is any 4 of the actors above combine. Just the luck. HAHA!
Well, if you are doing the top 5 special there’s definitely some people left off. So right now let me see if I can round this off to a top 15, Hunter Parrish, the whole cast of Gossip Girl: Penn Badgley,Chace Crawford, Ed Westwick, Josh Hutcherson, Kevin Zeger, Jamie Bell, Channing Tatum. And on some more experienced actor note, there’s no doubt these are the big players these days that’s up there and totally in the move fast into replacing the empty places left by those that’s past, those new buzz will definitely be starting with Leonardo DiCaprio, Jake Gyllenhaal, Josh Hartnett, James Marsden, Justin Long, Christian Bale, Patrick Dempsey, Jonathan Rhys Myers. I know you must be asking why are there no actors that’s black or Asian. For the Asian in the Hollywood business there’s hardly any place for them yet, as for the Black community, My way is still with Denzel Washington up on the top, grinding down to Jamie Foxx and Will Smith, which to me they are not getting there, they are already there.
So, that about concludes my actors review today. Best of Luck and Godspeed to you all.
