I prefer when actors blend really well into roles to the point where you either forget or initially can't tell that it's them, like the chameleon of acting himself:
I read the thread title and still didn't take it inHe's not American.
Most great things in this world aren't American, let alone actorsThis thread is highlighting how most great actors are not or weren't born American.
Sort of true. Every American is an Englishman. They just forgot, for some reasonThis thread is highlighting how most great actors are not or weren't born American.
Depends on the movieHe's not American.
DiCaprio? Stop.Hanks, DiCaprio, Bale, many others.
Denel is good of course, but light years away from those and others top american actors.
Whoa Keanu reeves would like a word.
This. A close second would be Tim Hanks for me.For me it's Daniel Day-Lewis
Daniel Day-Lewis or Tom Hanks for me personally.
I can't stand Elvis. I'd rather catch my testicles in the toilet seat again than watch that tripe.I love Tom Hanks but the only time I saw him play a villain was in the recent Elvis biopic
Denzel had a string of absolute bangers. Some great movies. 7 year span
Remember The titans
Training Day
John Q
out of time
Man on Fire
Inside Man
Deja Vu
American Gangster
Daniel isn’t American, I guess that just leaves Tom….Daniel Day-Lewis or Tom Hanks for me personally.
The one that pops in my head immediately is The Bone Collector. He is no Morgan Freeman.I don't think I've ever seen a film that he starred in that I didn't enjoy.

He’s on a different list with Christian Bale.J. Leto gets no love?!
Maybe even GOAT. Transcendent.
I'd pick Gary Oldman aswell.All the really good actors I can think of aren’t American.

Actually I’m going to throw John Lithgow into the mix.
He’s got a wide range from being funny to downright sinister.
I'd pick Gary Oldman aswell.
He is highly versatile. I'll give you that.Denzel is good but he is not even in my top 10.
The greatest American actor is Billy Bob Thornton.
I feel like this seems to be the consensus. No one really comes close. Pacino and Deniro are great but they don't really have the range and depth that Denzel at his best has
