Top Five Actors- An Act of Rebellion

[Ben Maxwell]

So my current top five favorite actors of the day are


Benedict Cumberbatch
Michael Fassbender
Patrick Stewart
Ian McKellan
Idris Elba

I'm being swayed back toward the crown and away from the colonies. Come on 'Merica, who's the top five for everyone else

I can agree with Benedict Cumberbatch & Michael Fassbender.

I'd add Daniel Craig, Philip Seymour Hoffman & George Clooney to round out the list.

As for actresses, I'd say that Elizabeth Banks, Jennifer Lawrence, Rooney Mara, Michelle Rodriguez & Chloe Grace Moretz would be the top five I'd go see a movie with 'em in just 'cause they're in it.

Benedict Cumberbatch
Idris Elba
Paul Giamatti
Daniel Day-Lewis
Michael Fassbender/Philip Seymour Hoffman (can't choose)

Potential favorites: James McAvoy, who is far under-rated & Bradley Cooper, who's getting better and better with everything he does. Also a nod to Chiwetel Ejiofor---who deserves to be a MUCH bigger star than he is.

Daniel Day-Lewis
Gary Oldman
Benedict Cumberbatch
Hugo Weaving
Bryan Cranston

I don't really have a top "five" actors. Only one: Vaughn Armstrong. For obvious reasons.
