  2. I'm not a professional actor, but when I've acted in theatre productions at my drama school, I have often gotten typecast as villains (It's the most fun part to play though)

  3. I have always enjoyed villain roles the most, but I haven't done professional acting yet, only acting in school productions

  4. Literally? I guess you haven't seen "The English Patient" or "Skyfall. And what about "Quiz Show", "Maid in Manhattan", "Sunshine", and "End of the Affair"?

  20. Odin Eidolon The people on this list are actors who are mostly associated with playing villains, and while Jack seems to be for many of today's audience, almost all of his Academy Award nominated performance was for playing a good guy, so he's more the "actors who can play good and bad guys" type (I don't understand why Christopher Walken was on this WatchMojo list, because I think he's that kind of actor too)

  21. He will be playing the main antagonist in the new James Bond movie "Spectre"

  22.  Mikael Donoso  Well, a LOT has happened during the last 4 years after I wrote my comment there, and I'm really not into acting anymore. I've done some more acting after I wrote my comment, and I'm starting to realize that it's mostly a battle of satisfying the director, the critics, the audience, and most importantly yourself, and that there's a lot of arbitrariness, competition, and institutional manipulation in the field. Not to mention in a time when it's hard to be yourself in your own life without having to constantly "act" and play a role to adapt, then it feels meaningless to have a profession completely dedicated to pretending you're someone you're not

  23. Jack Nicholson played a good guy in "Five Easy Pieces", "Chinatown", "One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest", "About Schmidt", and "The Bucket List". And even though his character in "As Good As It Gets" was not a traditional hero, he wasn't a villain either

  24. His most iconic roles are villains though

  25. Typecasting has its good and bad sides: - Good: it's a way to get a career since most casting crews won't care about someone who is new and looks pretty generic - Bad: after you have become well-known and established, you can get tired of being associated with one type of role and instead wish to try something new
