Yep - I fully agree. I liked that he did such a wide range of roles - blockbusters, villians, good guys, historical figures, fantasy figures, and independent film roles. Truly a diverse actor.

Will be curious to see what happens with the third Hunger Games movie, it's only partway through filming and Plutarch is a fairly big role in the third book at least...

When I asked for the death of The Hoff, I meant the guy from Knight Rider!

I thought his whole Kung Fu Panda series was a masterclass in the method technique.

A more notable colleague wrote a rather amusing critique of the film where he likened its ideology to that of Goebbels’ work. Obviously, after a few glasses of slivovitz.
