Awesome Sam Rockwell

If we had to pick our favorite living actor, Sam Rockwell is definitely in the running. His performances in films like Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, The Green Mile, and Confessions of a Dangerous Mind are all incredible and all so different. GQ sat down with the actor to learn about his inspirations and how he gets inside his characters.

This upcoming action-comedy from Matthew Vaughn (Kingsman, Kick-Ass) looks like a wild ride. It follows best-selling author (Bryce Dallas Howard) who finds herself pulled into a spy adventure like the ones in her books. Only in her real-world version of the drama, she’s accompanied by her cat and a spy (Sam Rockwell) who’s allergic to them. Drops 2.2.24.

There’s a ton of praise being heaped on actor Sam Rockwell for his complex character portrayal in Three Billboards. But back in 2002, he played The Gong Show host Chuck Barris in Confessions of a Dangerous Mind. Here’s a bit of his amazing screen test.
