Name an actor who would not be convincing portraying a villain

[Smashius Clay]

Philip Seymour Hoffman

 

[semicko82]

Michael J Fox would be choice
He can play likable A holes ( Doc Hollywood, The Hard Way), but never the bad guy

 

[semicko82]

Its over 20 years old.

 

[StraxStrax]

he did a great job in MI 3

nikka what? Hoffmans range was amazing.

edit:

I know I'm alone on this boat but I almost cried with laughter when he was on screen in MI3

 

[Pull Up the Roots]

Wilmer Valderrama. Hombreh looks too nice.

I think he could pull off the sleazeball type of villain pretty convincingly.

 

[Zero]

Anthony Mackie. Lord knows he's tried over the years

 

[Poetical Poltergeist]

Someone who has never played a villain but should is Eddie Murphy.

 

[Deltron]

Someone who has never played a villain but should is Eddie Murphy.

buddy love?

 

[WesCrook]

Not a villain but he stole the movie from Denzel in this one.

His character is the only reason I would rewatch it.

 

[MidwestD]

Topher Grace

 

[parallax]

Haley Joel Osment, he's too adorable.

He was one in future man. Pretty decent too

Topher Grace

I think after that 70s show and take me home tonight, hes been mostly an antagonistic actor

 

[Mr Hate Coffee]

Y’all keep naming people who have clearly played villains

tom hanks

he's come kinda close with a few roles where he's a little "bad" but he was still hanks so not really a villian / evil

He played a villain (multiple ones) in Cloud Atlas

 

[luckyse7enz]

Dude who played the first Spiderman
Toby Mcguire i think.creh don't look like he could be a villain at all

He plays the presumed antagonist in “Brothers” with Jake Gyllenhaal and Natalie Portman.

My pick is Martin Lawrence.

 

[Dynamite James]

The Rock (see Doom)

The Rock became “the rock” by playing a villain (heel)

 

[Sensitive Christian Grey]

Topher Grace

Wasn’t he a white supremacist in Black Klansman
