Most Underrated Actor/Actress

[Gurk]

Hugo Weaving. >:C

Peter Stormare, as previously mentioned, and Tilda Swinton - both entirely for their roles as Lucifer and Gabriel respectively in Constantine. The finale of that film is just plain awesome.

Alan Rickman. I know he is well known and well regarded but he has NEVER been nominated for an Academy Award, which is a sacrilege

Snape, Snape, Severus Snape.

Yeah, Rickman is pretty much a British God.

I dunno, Joseph Gordon Levitt is fairly amazing...but he's finally raking in the acclaim, so I'd hardly say he's underrated now.

Jennette McCurdy is one of my favorite actresses...barely anyone knows her

Rickman is the shit. I love that man.

I'd have to say Ewan Mcgreggor. I wish he would make more awesome movies like Trainspotting and less crap like Vallient. He's good.

I have no idea how to say his name but Chiwetel Ejiofor from Children of Men, Inside Man, Serenity and loads of other films.

Spoiler

They're more well known but Ewan McGregor and Nathan Fillion as well.

Out of very recently famous actresses: Adrienne Palicki (i.e. the new Wonder Woman). I never watched her previous roles on Friday Night Lights or Supernatural and didn't hear much about them, and the pics of the Wonder Woman project look god-awful right now, so she's getting a lot of stick.

BUT, you absolutely have to see her in the two movies "Women in Trouble" and "Electra Luxx" because she is a comedic genius in those two.

Spoiler: See this clip for an example.

He's at his best in Red Belt. Although its slightly similar to the Serenity character, it's a little more relatable
