20 Most Underrated Actors Working Today

A long-time member of the "Hey, it's that guy!" club, David Morse has spent his career turning up in classics and never getting the recognition given to his bigger-name co-stars. 

Best remembered for The Green Mile, Morse has done a little bit of everything over the past few decades, from tense thrillers like The Negotiator to heartbreaking tragedies like Dancer In the Dark. He's also had memorable bit parts in The Hurt Locker, The Rock, and The Long Kiss Goodnight. 

Best when portraying a hardened military man or law enforcement officer caught between his job and his principles, trying his best not to be shaken by conspiracy or tragedy, Morse actually delivered his best work in the disquieting thriller Disturbia, where he plays a sweet neighbour with a terrifying secret to nerve-jangling results. 

A towering figure who can be imposing and comforting in equal measure, Morse has stacked up an enviable track record over his career, though despite his credentials and the talent beside him, he's always felt a little left out in the cold.
