Laurence Fishbourne will always be Morpheous to me

[-] thatradomguy@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Steve Carell

[-] dessalines@lemmy.ml 2 points 4 hours ago

Christian Bale, Patrick Bateman.

[-] Bongles@lemmy.zip 3 points 6 hours ago

Adult Danielle Radcliffe I don't really think "that's Harry Potter". Probably because the beard.

Wesley snipes is blade though.

[-] Carrolade@lemmy.world 23 points 13 hours ago

Even when I see Elrond in LotR, that's actually just Agent Smith in a funny costume.

[-] hbar@lemmy.ml 4 points 12 hours ago

I always call him Agent Elf

Seeing Wayne Knight in Jurassic Park, wondering why Newman is there

[-] lobut@lemmy.ca 1 points 6 hours ago

What about 3rd Rock From The Sun? I think Newman fits in quite well there too.

[-] morphballganon@mtgzone.com 2 points 6 hours ago

It was a bit odd seeing him try to defuse a bomb in Die Hard With a Vengeance.

[-] hbar@lemmy.ml 22 points 16 hours ago

Vince Vaughn as Vince Vaughn in everything.

[-] selokichtli@lemmy.ml 11 points 14 hours ago

Jason Alexander.

[-] Witchfire@lemmy.world 4 points 11 hours ago

Sorry Aubrey Plaza, you will forever be an intern

[-] Vinny_93@lemmy.world 14 points 16 hours ago

After Miracle Workers, Guns Akimbo and especially Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, Daniel Radcliffe is so much more than Harry Potter to me. He's got this almost Nicolas Cage-y vibe now

[-] JustinTheGM@ttrpg.network 10 points 15 hours ago

Don't forget Swiss Army Man!

[-] meyotch@slrpnk.net 4 points 16 hours ago

In all those subsequent roles, I imagine they are all the same universe and Harry’s life just got really random.

[-] Sherad@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 12 hours ago

Tom Cruise is just Tom Cruise to me, I never feel like he disappears into any kind of role - he's just Tom Cruise pretending to be someone else who happens to look and act similarly to Tom Cruise.

With one exception, that being Les Grossman from Tropic Thunder 😆

[-] DornerStan@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 1 hour ago

Magnolia is probably his best performance, but hard to say how much of that is him disappearing into the role versus the role giving us a peak behind the mask lol

[-] Diddlydee@feddit.uk 2 points 12 hours ago

First, take a big step back... and literally, FUCK YOUR OWN FACE!

[-] scytale@lemmy.zip 1 points 12 hours ago

The same for me, but with Leonardo DiCaprio. I can never see him disappear into a role for some reason.

[-] CptKrkIsClmbngThMntn@hexbear.net 10 points 15 hours ago

I liked Bradley Cooper but after watching American Sniper I can't see his face anymore without seeing the smug visage of imperialist murder.

[-] Kennystillalive@feddit.org 11 points 16 hours ago

Niel Patrick Harris will always be Barney Stinson.

[-] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 6 points 13 hours ago

No, he is Dr Doogie Howser!

[-] Kennystillalive@feddit.org 5 points 15 hours ago

Honorable Mention: Morgan Freeman is God.

[-] falkerie71@sh.itjust.works 13 points 17 hours ago

Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark, and Daniel Craig as James Bond.

[-] pipe01@programming.dev 7 points 15 hours ago

Rami Malek will always be a hacker

[-] Brad@beehaw.org 2 points 13 hours ago

He was ridiculously amazing as Freddie Mercury.

[-] kurcatovium@piefed.social 2 points 6 hours ago

I never knew Freddie was a hacker...

[-] Reverendender@sh.itjust.works 3 points 12 hours ago

Ryan Reynolds will always be Ryan Reynolds

[-] BeatTakeshi@lemmy.world 10 points 16 hours ago

Frodo, even if I was impressed in the movie Hooligan.

Didn't even call him by his government name, lol.

[-] BeatTakeshi@lemmy.world 3 points 11 hours ago

Elijah Baggins

[-] Bonifratz@sh.itjust.works 3 points 16 hours ago

Same with Aragorn for me.

[-] scintilla@beehaw.org 6 points 15 hours ago

RDJ just is iron man at this point. I saw him in Oppenheimer and was genuinely distracted by it.

[-] LaGG_3@hexbear.net 7 points 16 hours ago

I like how Robert Pattinson has done quite a few weird roles that Twilight isn't always the first thing I think of with him lol

[-] huf@hexbear.net 1 points 12 hours ago

the matrix mr smith guy. no matter what he's in, i only see agent smith.

[-] Nemo@slrpnk.net 3 points 15 hours ago

Linda Cardinelli is always Lindsay Weir.

[-] Romkslrqusz@lemmy.zip 3 points 12 hours ago
[-] Nemo@slrpnk.net 2 points 11 hours ago

Yeah, Seth Rogan, too. Jason Segel has broken that mold, though, at least to me. And so has James Franco.

[-] m532@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 12 hours ago

The voice actor for Marvi Hämmer

[-] Noerknhar@feddit.org 3 points 17 hours ago

Heath Ledger will always be the Joker.

[-] Oni_eyes@sh.itjust.works 19 points 16 hours ago

I think you mean Sir Ulrich von Lichtenstein

[-] Strider@thelemmy.club 10 points 16 hours ago

He's blond! He's pissed! He'll see you in the lists!

[-] Oni_eyes@sh.itjust.works 6 points 15 hours ago

Gah, what a great movie for a myriad of great actors. Prequels to Wash (Tudyk), King Baratheon (Addy), and Vision (Bettany)

[-] paultimate14@lemmy.world 1 points 13 hours ago

I can't hear Richard Horvitz without thinking of Invader Zim. He does a ton of random voices in the more recent Ratchet and Clank games and it's very distracting.

[-] hddsx@lemmy.ca 1 points 15 hours ago

McAdams as Regina

Seyfried as Karen
