This is not the alleged Dracula Dark Universe reboot that Karyn Kusama is supposed to be directing. But one about a Dracula Lackey (Draculacky?) who is in a mental asylum

His imdb gives "im trying to hide my inability to get good roles with roles i can claim are ~unique" and it gives me a sensible chuckle

I say this as someone who doesnt dislike him

[lreservoirldogs]

I dont dislike him but between this and Mad max I always get always the bridesmaid sidekick never the bride lead vibes.

I know he has been the lead but I cant think of one movie offhand.

I think Warm Bodies?

Warm Bodies was such a great half of a book...the movie was meh

[lreservoirldogs]

Forgot about that movie for a second. ...with granola mom version of kstew aka Teresa palmer.

Me finding out he was in Mad Max through this comment

I kind of like that he knows what his lane is and sticks with it. Granted he did audition for Batman but hes a good supporting actor and doesn't seem to mind playing that part.

IA. I find him likable, he's nice to look at but his acting is quite...stiff? just not very solid.

But I do like him!

Not a movie but he was at least a co-lead in "The Great". It was a good role for him and really showed his range. I wanted to kill his character most of the series but then sometimes felt bad for him. Most disturbing.

I think he's realised his career can thrive on character roles
