Lucky Number Slevin.
Freeman’s breakout role was in Street Smart, where he played a pimp.
Re: Fred MacMurray
I’ve always thought that final scene with José Ferrer falls flat.He chews out the other officers for turning on Queeg instead of helping him. But people had tried to help Queeg; there was the helmsman who tried to tell him that they were about to cross their own tow cable, the sailor who told him there was an extra key to the food locker. Queeg berated them or ignored what he was told. Queeg could not be helped.I remember Eddie Albert as a good guy, probably mostly from Green Acres, but he was a definite villain in the original The Longest Yard.
Oh, right. Forgot the point of the thread. :smack:
Jimmy Stewart played one of the bad guys in Bandalero in 1968 with Dean Martin and I seem to recall Raquel Welch.
Denzel Washington is usually the good guy. In Training Day, well, he was not such a good guy.
Javier Bardem / No Country For Old Men
Love him, haven’t seen all his movies yet, but he’s usually a good guy.
Ah. Never saw those.
:smack: That one I did see. Repeatedly.
Walter Matthau in Charade.
Samuel Jackson also played a villain in Coming to America - he plays a robber who gets taken out by Eddie Murphy.
I’ll offer Ronald Reagan, who played a villain in Don Siegel’s version of The Killers.
Robin Williams in Insomnia.
Oh, and One Hour Photo.
Bill Murray in City of Ember.
John Lithgow in Blowout.
Merv Griffin in The Man with Two Brains. 
Danny Glover was also the bad guy is The Color Purple - REALLY bad guy!
He’s currently filming (or has just wrapped) a season-long arc as a serial killer on the show Dexter. He twittered a few interesting tidbits about it.
I believe Sean Connery’s only role as the outright villain (as opposed to a criminal protagonist) was in The Avengers.
Wasn’t Lithgow also the villain in the Stallone movie set in the mountains, where he was some sort of rescue worker?
Cliffhanger? Didn’t see it, but I’ll stand corrected, on the strength of the Dexter thing (which I also haven’t seen).
ETA: Come to think of it, I forgot about Lord F*ckwad in Shrek.
And wasn’t he in Buckaroo Bonzai? Never mind. Lithgow is a horrible choice.
Yeah, he was the villain in Cliffhanger.
(my bolding)
Samuel Jackson was more comic relief than a villain.
My choice entering this thread. Cruise and Fox were excellent in this movie
Kostner also played a villian in “A Perfect World”, even though he was a good guy and protector of “Buzz”. A killer nonetheless.
I’ll say John Wayne in Ghengis Khan. He was so BAD.
Perhaps not a villain, but most certainly a "bad’ guy.
