The Amazing Spider-Man 2: 5 Actors That Could Play Harry Osborn

2. Paul Dano

Paul Dano might look a touch too old to a lot of folks, but age is really not an issue when dealing with someone as talented as him. He's actually younger than Andrew Garfield by a year but I think has a maturity to his look accompanied by the look of, "entitled kid." He played the role well in Cowboys and Aliens despite that being not the greatest film in the world. He shocked everyone in both Little Miss Sunshine and There Will Be Blood and has made it abundantly clear that he is an incredibly talented dramatic actor who's also capable of naturally playing comedy. His look is unique and his voice quality is distinct. Everything about Dano is original and, honestly, it's a miracle someome with his look managed to make it to stardom like he has. Trust me, he's on the top of my list as far as talented actors goes, but in a world full of Twilight and CW styled, Super Model six packs it's no lie to say the odds were stacked against him. But it just goes to show how talented he is, that with his originality and potential he broke a lot of molds to go on to become a popular and respected young actor. There's no question that, out of anyone on this list, Dano would bring the greatest, most diverse performance to a modern Harry Osborn.
