Game: Which Actor... ?

[Monkey67]

I don't think so. He saves the the prisoners

 

[Monkey67]

Alex balwin?

cat - Madagascar : makunga

submariner - a hunt for red October - jack ryan

pow - never the same - the prisoner of war experience

well ill that's my guess, not sure the pow is right

Remember the rules: if your actor fits all the categories (whether or not that's who the original poster was thinking of) you win!

Oh well, since Monkey isn't posting an actor, we'd better get on with it, I'll post a slightly more difficult actor.

Who's been a WWI German Officer , a cocaine dealer, and an investigative journalist.

 

[Monkey67]

Oh I am sorry, I wasn't thinking I won. I was thinking Haroldvonbraun won for at least trying.

Ok, no problem lets see if someone can solve his.

WW1 German officer is a tough one.. I'm thinking Johnny Depp so far.

Daniel Craig

The Trench
Layer Cake
Girl with the Dragon Tattoo

 

[HaroldVonBraun]

Correctamundo!

I was actually thinking of Daniel Craig in The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles, where he plays a German officer, but in the interest of continuing with this thread, I'll allow it.

 

[dascoyne]

I'm thinking of an actor who played a knight, a wizard, a bandit and a king.

 

[WarPig]

Sean Connery. I'll need to check imdb for some of the films (pretty sure "Robin & Marion" was the thief); "Zardoz" he was a "wizard".

A king in "First Knight", and a knight in "Sword of the Valiant: The Legend of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight".

 

[Satxer]

He was King Richard in Robin Hood Prince of Thieves or King Aurthur in First Knight.

Edit: beat me too it /\

 

[dascoyne]

Nice try but no.

Connery wasn't the wizard in Zardoz, btw. He was an exterminator.

The guy I'm thinking of played a knight, a wizard, a bandit, a king and a sheriff... he might have even played a queen (but it's not a mainstream role so it probably doesn't count).

 

[Monkey67]

I would say Ian Mckellen, but can't say I recall him as a sheriff tho

 

[Monkey67]

Jeremy Irons

wizard- dungeons & ddragons

knight - kingdom of heaven

king- the lion king or Henry IV

badit - Appalossa / Die hard 3

oh crap didn't see the sheriff part..Hmm

sheriff - kingdom of heaven

 

[dascoyne]

Nope. Good guess, though.

 

[rodneyfaile]

Richard Harris

Wizard in Harry Potter, sheriff in The Deadly Trackers, king in Gladiator and in Camelot, bandit in The Count of Monte Cristo.

 

[dascoyne]

Not the person I had in mind. I better add to this.

The guy I'm thinking of played a knight, a wizard, a bandit, a king and a sheriff.

He's also played a chef and a maître d.

 

[rodneyfaile]

Is this person in Monty Python or on SNL? lol

 

[rodneyfaile]

John Cleese

Sheriff in Silverado, knight in Monty Python and the Holy Grail, maître d in Monty Python and the Meaning of Life, wizard in Harry Potter, bandit in Time Bandits (Robin Hood), king in Shrek 2, and chef in Monty Pythons Flying Circus.

 

[dascoyne]

Congrats. You got the actor right ...

but he wasn't a wizard in Harry Potter. He was a ghost.

In Monty Python and the Holy Grail he was Tim the Enchanter.

Good Job.

 

[rodneyfaile]

I figured he must have been a wizard before he was a ghost.
