Which actors/actresses do you believe are the most versatile?

Asked by mass_pike4 (2096points) August 3rd, 2010

By this I mean what actresses/actors do you think are able to play very different roles in different movies? There are many great actors/actresses out there, yet many of them usually stick to a similar character style, for example adam sandler being a funny guy or angelina jolie being a tough women. The only actress I can think of as of the moment is Meryl Streep because she has been able to play roles such as a harsh boss in Devil Wears Prada to a good hearted cook in Julia and Julia, and it was convincing.

Some actress/actors have tried this and failed such as vince vaughn in Psycho. Although it was a good effort, it was very challenging to take the movie seriously when all you can think about it how hes been a comedian in every role and is now trying to be serious.

So with that said, which actresses/actors do you believe have been able to pull off playing a role that they usually play to a role they usually don’t play?
