1. Jason Flemyng
Jason Flemyng is one of those extremely prolific British actors who has made the hugely successful jump to Hollywood, having starred in some of the biggest blockbusters of the last few years. However, hes not adverse to coming back home and starring in smaller British films, too.
What You May Know Him From: Some of the major roles Flemyng has inhabited include Azazel in X-Men: First Class, Calibos in the remake of Clash of the Titans, Primus in Stardust and Brad Pitts father in The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. Other roles include the smart-talking schemer Tom in Guy Ritchies Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, the father of the family that Saoirse Ronan meets up with in Hanna, the guy Jason Statham chases onto the bus in Transporter 2 (the two of them are great friends in real life), the henchman in the hotel lobby in Kick-Ass whom Hit-Girl more than gets the better of and as Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde in The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (shown above).
