Jeremy Irons
He's been pretty low profile recently (link) -- anyone know why?

I don't see him as the type to want to be high profile all the time.

Don't forget -- according to Lisa Simpson, "JEREMY IRONS" is an anagram for "JEREMY'S IRON".

Sorry for the hijack. According to the rules inspired by the thread title, it should be someone {Jeremy} does something {Irons}. Wesley Snipes is an excellent example, while James Woods doesn't work: "to wood" isn't a verb. Ideally they should be someone with a Cafe Society connection, so Jesse Helms and Joseph Banks are out.

Roger Waters
John Waters
Robbie Burns
Van Dyke Parks

Good, but it still has to form a grammatical sentence:

He's raising cash to produce Lolita II *L*

And living down The Time Machine (tho honestly, I liked the movie)

Seriously, I always have hoped to see him play Karloff or Lovecraft.

There were so many others that aren't grammatic sentences I just went with it.

Claire Danes, for example.
