I agree with Johnny Depp because he is so funny and quirky and he takes every character and gives them life.

Yep definitely Johnny Depp.....He is so versatile and appealing to a wide audience. There is a particular acting talent that he has that ensures a new treat for viewers in every movie he takes on. BRAVO!!!!!!!

Don't know that I'd refer to Johnny as 'cute' or 'sexy', but he is a great character actor - although it is about time the Pirates were put to sea before they get too boring.

Charles Bronson was always a favourite of mine. Otherwise, no problem with Yun-Fat Chow or Michelle Yeoh

I have to agree with this voter, he is very cute no arguement and also quite humble in interviews, which is refreshing. Plus the fact that for a leading man he chooses very quirky and unusual characters and enjoys inhabiting their personalites to some acclaimed performances.

Jeremy Irons- he's much talented than many of modern actors,though it's my personal opinion. Michael Cain- just charismatic man. Sam Neil- too. And a couple of others

Wow...this is a hard one. I have quite a few. Johnny Depp, Will Smith, Tom Hanks...the list goes on. Johnny Depp is very versatile, Will Smith creates blockbusters and the same goes for Tom Hanks. I also like the new and upcoming actors who haven't quite made it big yet such as, Michael Ealy (love his bright blue eyes).

Ditto! I love Jonny Depp, he is my all time favourite! He is so versatile, he can play a role that is hilarious, and then can play a role that is really spooky. I just adore him, he is like Michael Jackson, he is one of a kind!

I don't have a tattoo like Johnny but I share a birthdate with him and I also like him as an actor, but one of my alltime favourites is Robert Duvall, from way back in To Kill a Mocking Bird and countless movies since... He has never made a bad performance and he is so versatile, whether he is a "bad guy, good guy, funny. whatever) Another is Michael Caine... such good movies but he is also so entertaining when an interviewee. I love Amy Adams, you only have to look at her to warm to her. Meryl Streep... I could go on and on. but I am becoming boring.

My current fave is Paul Bettany as he plays such diverse roles and is a terrific actor to boot. ( He was the imaginary friend in 'A Beautiful Mind')

Will Ferrell,

he just seems to play the silly dry humour role that makes me laugh at simple everyday things that we all think. Even a little facial expression can get me into laughter!! Anchorman do ui need to say anything else!!

Johnny has made many good films but I like Meryl Streep more and think she has the ability to play a great many different roles as seen by her various films. I could be biased as I am a woman. Johnny was certainly very good as a Pirate and as Willy Wonker and you cannot argue with that.

Yes, i absolutely loved Medicine Man. Overall, my opinion of Sean Connery is, 'the man is class & charisma, personified' !!

I believe that Colin Farrell is one of the most under-rated and under-appreciated actors around. All the press has ever focused on is his early love life and bad-boy image.

Well, that was many years ago now, and STILL the poor man has to prove himself. All you have to do is watch the bulk of his movies, read reviews and interviews with him or by his co-stars, watch him being interviewed onTV shows via youtube and you see a totally different person. He is very well spoken, never ever short for words and intelligent answers, he is dedicated to his art and his family, (especially his 2 boys, his mum and sister), takes every movie he stars in seriously, and gives 110%.

He supports the Special Olympics and various charities around the world and is always gracious and humble. Don't judge him according to what the press writes about him - go and watch a few interviews on the net and experience his passion and sensitivity and glorious sense of humour.

And his smoldering good looks don't hurt either . My Aussie friends and I love him over here and can't wait for him to visit our land once more. xx

Couldn't agree more! Johnny Depp is such an all rounded actor. Can act in so many ways, from Chocolat to the Pirate movies. Plays good or evil and inbetween. He is classy and defined as an actor that he can also pick and choose his scripts which he does with flair, knowing his own boundaries. Of course his wonderful looks don't hurt either!

Robert De-Niro, he is like a good wine - he gets better with age. :-)

Can't really pick just one there are so many but if forced I could narrow to two - the Hepburns, not related or anything but Audrey and Katherine are both totally fantastic and ground breaking in their way.

Hiya Everyone,

He is not an actor as such...but a born entertainer....Mr Robbie Williams, I can say I have 2 tattoo's, one is of his autograph, that I had tattoo'd over :) and I have his (R similar) sort of trademark also, on the inside on my wrist.
I am planning to get another one, but proirities will dictate when I will get it.

If you ever get the chance to see him LIVE.....He is amazing! Be brilliant if he comes back to Australia...highly unlikely, but you never know! Fingers Crossed.

Cheers,
Lisa

My favourite actors are versatile actors who can play any role and have awesome, natural acting talent. So with that in mind, mine are Robert De Niro and Jack Nicholson. Can't separate who is the best as both have equally admirable qualities. Remember Jack Nicholson's role in The Shining.. the sinister face ... " Here's Johnny!!!" or One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, the mental ward. Oh and we knew something awesome was on the rise with De Niro's performance in Taxi Driver with the cameo of the incredibly gifted Jodie Foster.

As for Aussie talent, Hugh Jackman is great for Big-budget Hollywood (Wolverine), Aussie genre and musically gifted as well. Heath ledger was promising (the chilling role of The Joker, Two Hands) and sadly missed. Aussie women stars are aplenty with Nicole Kidman, Cate Blanchett and the lovely Naomi Watts.

Robert Ryan is my favorite. He's an old actor from the 50s. I love the old actors like Humphrey Bogart and Marlon Brando, Cary Grant. They were so masculine and unique.
Edward Norton is my favorite modern actor, he can do anything. Christian Bale is the same. They're sexy without trying to be.
My favorite actresses are Bette Davis, Joan Crawford, Barbara Stanwyck ( I sound like Im 500 years old!!)
I love the old glamour actresses like Ava Gardner, Lana Turner.
And I love the actors from old soaps like Dallas and Dynasty, Melrose Place.
Charlize Theron is an amazing actress. I also like Milla Jovovich a lot. She''s terriffic in The Claim and I think she's underrated, being a model and also an action hero.

Gobears, l totally agree with you on Jack Nicholson and Robert De Niro, l also think Al Pacino is a talented actor too.

Most definitely! Particularly his gangster roles he does so well. I find it hard to resist watching the Godfather trilogy even if I've watched it countless times.

Johnny Depp is very versatile. Brad Pitt is not that great of an actor :(
George Clooney is extremly talented, as is Daniel Day Lewis, Hugh Jackman, Daniel Craig and Phillip Seymour Hoffman (just to name a few)...

My favopurite actor is "VIN DIESEL". I think he is the *****iest guy around,and he can act in any of his role"s that he is given. He is a jack of all trades as we call him. He can pull off anything he puts his mind too.
