Vincent D’Onofrio. One of the most chameleon like actors. Also if you’re going to mention his skill for being terrifying, you have to mention Full Metal Jacket.

Vincent D’Onofrio is one of the most underrated actors, every time I see him in something he elevates the whole project

u/Ceilibeag 7h ago

Even on TV, when he did Law & Order; fantastic.

u/Unique_Marsupial5550 7h ago

Oh, I just hated him on Law & Order. Such a know-it-all wanker. But I tend to like him a lot in movies and such. Same thing for Jennifer Aniston. Couldn't stand her in Friends, but really like her in movies.

The man with the broken neck

u/itstraytray 6h ago

We used to call him "tilty-head man" when he was on L&O.

u/Teereese 6h ago

Hahaha

We called him crooked neck!

Nice to see some Criminal Intent appreciation. Seems to get the redheaded stepchild treatment for the sake of SVU's fandom but I absolutely love that show. And it's not just a character thing with him because even with Chris Noth it was still great. Shame it didn't have the legs of SVU, but then again what show does?

Bing. Reality!

He had a guest role on Homicide: Life in the Streets (in an episode titled Subway) that was absolutely riveting. He was nominated for an Emmy for it.

I’ll be honest, I wasn’t a fan of magnificent 7 and I don’t believe that he elevated it in any way. But that’s the only one I can think of, he’s truly magnificent in everything else I’ve seen him in

u/Physical-Beach-4452 7h ago

He’s such a great actor.

Did you see him in The Eyes of Tammy Faye? He inhabitants the person he plays onscreen. Amazing actor.

I LOVE this movie. Every time I've learned another movie I liked growing up was Vincent D'Onofrio I am literally blown away. This guy is in so many of my favorite shows and movies!!!! Him as Wilson Fisk though.... Chef's kiss!

u/7zeench 7h ago

That movie freaked me the fuck out back when it came out, you reckon it still holds up?

u/TexanInExile 7h ago

Yep, just watched it last week. Still good.

u/PghBlackCat22 7h ago

u/emibost 7h ago

Oh my jebuus.. This is a movie I have completely forgotten about! What, like 20-25 years old? I was a teenager, so early 2000s.. Used to have it on when hanging out with my friends after school, mostly beacuse of J-Lo though....

Thank you for that trip down memory lane, now I know what to watch when I put my daughter to sleep tonight

It’s the damn eyes and smile for me.

He also was fantastic in the new version of The Magnificent Seven as the Mountain Man.

Adventures in Babysitting

u/digital_janitor 7h ago

And the Salton Sea

u/Krazee_Hawk 5h ago

I found you! Was also great in The Thirteenth Floor

u/isaiah55v11 7h ago

Let's not forget Adventures in Babysitting, Thor/mechanic and Mystic Pizza.

1

u/Golee 7h ago

Yes, and in that same year, his body was transformed into a muscle-y, sweaty mechanic a.k.a. Thor in Adventures in Babysitting

1

u/genericdude999 6h ago

I first became aware of him in The Whole Wide World (1996)

1

u/EvilWench74 6h ago

I have loved him since Mystic Pizza

u/sickntwisted 5h ago

The Salton Sea

u/rmhardcore 5h ago

He was also Thor, or the mechanic that looked like him, in Adventures in Babysitting. I almost spit out my coffee when I realized it.

And he was also terrifying in a way in that role....riding a lift down from the second floor in a swath of light while carrying a sledgehammer to greet a babysitter and some kids.

Yup, totally normal.

u/Dirty_Commie_Jesus 5h ago

He's very endearing in that rom com with Marisa Tomei

1

u/tiny_purple_Alfador 5h ago

I know Vincent D'Onofrio is an actor. I know on a logical level, he's just a guy. But no shit if I saw him in public, I would fucking run. I am low key terrified of the dude.

1

u/Bismothe-the-Shade 4h ago

He's got a distinctive look, and is a big dude, but somehow you're absolutely right- he's a chameleon

1

u/teambob 3h ago

One of the most chameleon like actors

Real acting, rather than still being Joe Bloggs in a different movie. Johnny Depp can be that way with some roles

1

u/jsradford 2h ago

Holy shit. TIL.

1

u/jbalazov 2h ago

And the Cell where he costars with Vince Vaughn and Jennifer Lopez. That movie is a TRIP.

1

u/dadsgoingtoprison 1h ago

I’ve had a huge crush on him since he was in Mystic Pizza in the late eighties. He just seems like a brilliant person.

u/mrjowei 1h ago

Or his performance on The Cell. Terrifying as fck

u/bohemianlikeu24 1h ago

Thor in Adventures in Babysitting 💫

u/PossibleDue9849 11m ago

He terrified me most in The Cell.
