1. Sam Neill
Sam Neill is a pretty good actor; it's just unfortunate that he is referred to as 'that guy from Jurassic Park.' Yes, his two most remembered films are Jurassic Park and the disappointing Jurassic Park 3. He has of course been in countless films since then, but none that have excited everyone as much as dinosaurs in a park... He is surprisingly pretty good in villainous roles; he was excellent in their weird and wonderful Daybreakers. He also had a major part in the first series of The Tudors, where he played the ambiguous Cardinal Wolsey - when I saw this I thought he put on a great British accent. I was slightly ashamed of myself when I found out he was actually born in Britain and grew up in New Zealand... who knew!? He appears to have done well for himself in his career which is reassuring because in interviews he seems like a really nice guy. His name may not exactly be on the tip of everyone's tongue but, it is safe to say he has done well regardless.
