Title: Fictional creeps played by real-life creeps
Post by: Jeremy Blackman on April 02, 2022, 05:58:17 PM
I'll start with some easy ones:

Robert Blake in Lost Highway
Ezra Miller in We Need To Talk About Kevin
Kevin Spacey in House of Cards

All 3 accidentally super effective due to some real aspects of the actors' personalities coming through. Without sinking too deep into rumor and gossip, what are some other good examples?

Perhaps milder versions of what this thread is going for, but I feel the need to list:

Jason Sudeikis in Colossal – I don't know if this is true, but he plays a toxic gaslighting dude way too well for me to trust him.

Chris Pratt in Jurassic World – Also someone who might be normal, but I don't know, probably not. He's so unlikable in this movie that I have no desire to watch Parks and Rec.
