This is one of the best actors alive today imo, and he’s criminally underused. Stephen fucking Graham.

  2. Pat Springleaf would be very unhappy to see Stephen Graham appreciation.

  5. Agreed! I could watch “the boiling point” over and over again, purely down to his acting.

  7. I wouldn’t say he was underused, he’s been extremely prolific for a number of years, great actor still

  8. Him in this is England and those TV parts of it too, he’s quality

  9. He was amazing in “Time”. Really enjoyed his performance.

  10. Brilliant… he’s a brilliant actor int he?

    He’s not my favourite actor of all time though. No, my favourite actor of all time is Mr. Sidney Poitier. Alright?

  11. He is brilliant in everything I have ever seen him in! Top of the top!

  17. An underused actor who has 120 acting credits to his name, has been the lead in popular TV shows, has been in Hollywood films, and has been prominent in 14 TV shows and films since the start of 2022.

  18. Underused? He’s in everything lol. I agree he’s a fantastic actor though

  19. He’s not underused, he works with some of the greatest actors and directors in the world. Even when he’s doing UK TV it’s usually top drawer.

    If he just appeared on any old rubbish he’d be used more but less respected. Actors of his quality are and should be selective.

    Maybe you’re not aware of everything he has been in the last 10-15 years and have only seen a bit of his work.

  21. Him in the OG deadmau5 music videos for ‘I Remember’ might be one of the best things he’s ever done

  22. Boiling point (the original) is one of the best things I’ve ever seen. It’s practically theatre.

  23. iirc his wife helps him with scripts due to his dyslexia

  24. By “underused” do you mean he’s not in all the superhero stuff?

  25. He’s not underused at all!! He’s in multiple Scorsese films and countless British based Dramas and films (including from Guy Ritchie etc)..

    Although I agree, he is one of the best actors currently living.

    Lock Stock (both)
    Boardwalk Empire
    Peaky Blinders
    Boiling Point
    The Irishman
    Line of Duty
    Hellboy
    Pirates of the Caribbean
    The Watchman
    This is England
    Gangs of New York
    Band of Brothers
    Snatch

    The list goes on and on and on!! All of the above are 10 out of 10 too!

  33. One of the best for sure. Combo on the TV series was done so well, so is his other work. Fantastic in the North Water and Time, and some of his more high-profile roles. An absolute national treasure and also seems to be a total gent in real life.
