John Travolta & Nicolas Cage. Not many actors can play the hero and the villain well and these guys can play any character

Simon Russell Beale, OK, more of a stage actor than film but he was absolutely brilliant as Beria in The Death of Stalin, and is without doubt the finest actor I have ever seen on stage.

Others already mentioned
Cate Blanchett
Russell Crowe
Anthony Hopkins
Emma Thompson

Bill Nighy.

I would happily fist bump him despite his Crystal Palace allegiance.

Someone I unfortunately tend to confuse with actor Chris Langham for some reason. Not an association Mr Nighy would welcome I'm sure.

Notwithstanding the fact that he was a total meglomaniacal ars*hole who sexually abused his daughter, I've always been drawn to Klaus Kinski as an actor. He first came to my attention when I was relatively young when he played the hunchback in "For a Few Dollars More" whose back Lee Van Cleef uses to strike a match to light his pipe. He later starred in one of my favourite films Fitzcarraldo. Apparently his behaviour was so intolerable during the making of that film that the local Peruvian natives offered to kill him for the Director Werner Herzog. Herzog was so exasperated by Kinski that he did give the offer due consideration.
