Not very accurate (more based on ideal representation of country than reality I mean :p ) but I'd pick Rutger Hauer for the Netherlands:

For America:

I think we could all wish that a bunch of super-awesome actors and actresses could represent our country, but I think the most realistic one would be Tom Cruise, because he's relatively hip, loud, action-based, and a scientologist.

Will Farrell not because he's an amazing actor or anything but because the way I see him in my head as a loud mouth guy who has some good parts though most of his crap is a fail and he hasn't aged well since his prime. This sounds quite good for my good ole USA we had some great time though it was running on a bit of a gimmick and needs to change its game plan a bit.

Geoffrey Rush (and I dont mean the Monkey by the way)

Geoffrey Rush is my pick too. Amazing actor and a really down-to-earth, lovely guy. He also continues to support Australian theatre and is really approachable in person.

Films: Quills, Shine, Munich, Elizabeth, Ned Kelly, King's Speech and stage work.

Lots of stage acting/singing + independent films + X-Men, The Prestige, Swordfish & Australia.

Hugo Weaving/Geoffrey Rush/Mel Gibson have better filmography's but don't personify aussie blokes in my mind.

I semi-agree, but for me, Rush evokes the larrakin spirit of Australia better. But that's just a preference thing. Love Hugh Jackman. However Gibson came to aus when he was 12, so technically American.

Mel Gibson is Australian.

Tbh I don't recognize any of them ;p



WHAT? First one is James McAvoy, ie Professor X in xmen first class, 2nd is Robert Carlyle as Begbie in trainspotting, 3rd is Brian Cox,as Colonel Stryker i believe being stabbed by Hugh Jackman's wolverine in the pic lol


I didn't recognize any of them too, perhaps you should actually post their names with the picture next time instead of acting surprised when others don't recognize them. One of my pet peeves on the internet are people who do this, so annoying.

I agree with Rob Wells for Canada, but only if he uses rickyisms (obviously)!


Not acting surprised, genuinely surprised, that someone Scottish, posting in a famous actors for your countries thread, did not recognise three of scotlands most famous actors, considering the first one was the main character in probably the biggest summer blockbuster of last year, the second is from probably the most famous scottish movie of all time etc...

Jean Dujardin for sure. Great humor in Brice, Un Gars Une Fille, and OSS117 but also great at drama, the Artist.


I'd also add Alain Delon :

If you're after larrikin spirit, you should nominate Sam Worthington - word on the street is, he went through NIDA completely stoned.

Heath Ledger would have been a good pick, too, I guess.

Dancer in the Dark is probably one of my most detested films of all time, though, to be fair, it wasn't entirely Bjork's fault - mostly it was the fact that I don't think it achieved what it was trying to, stylistically, and also it was damn depressing.

Saving hundreds of jews from certain death during WWII, then making an Oscar winning movie and still feeling like he could have done more. Mad props to him!
