Suiting the cast type perfectly, William H Macy can be simultaneously empathetic and creepy, which could work wonders for the character. In addition to his typecast being perfect, he looks fantastic for the role, arguable the most accurate looking actor within this list.

As an actor, William H. Macy has always been unique, with standout performances in films like Fargo, Magnolia and Boogie Nights. His identity is entirely individual, and thus far, he hasn't had a great chance to show off his ability to play someone genuinely frightening.

Typically not appearing too often in the mainstream, this role would be the perfect chance to open up the somewhat underrated actor to a broader audience, and let moviegoers get a feel for his fantastic performances.

Whilst making the majority of his living playing characters who are sympathetic with a side of the creep factor, William H. Macy could bring some of his signature sympathy towards the role, taking it in a fascinating direction.
