      @@Beneficialitificul I think that's a great observation, I never thought of that but it makes so much sense now especially given how central a role his eyes play in his portrayal of the character. The role was perfect for him without anyone knowing it would be perfect for him.

    He's a guy who looks like a model, but plays some seriously dark roles. And really captures the insanity or emotions the film wants.

    No Red Eye? That's an underrated thriller and really, Cillian carried it, he was perfect in the psycho role. He's in general not a guy fit to play just ordinary dudes, his face, eyes, and the way he talks are too expressive and specific.
    Due to his specific eyes/face and voice, he really is a good fit for intense or complicated characters. I think he would make a great Bond villain.

      Yes I like that they added that in the movie because in the comics when he doesn’t have the mask on he is not so intimidating. I think him being and intimidating person with and without the mask was a good addition to the character. Especially looking at how Johnathan Crane was already being the Scarecrow

      He's fantastic with accents, I've always known he was Irish (as I am) but I think this is the first time I've heard him speak in his own accent. It's so jarring to hear your own accent coming out of a body that you've associated with so many other voices.
