Luis Guzman

Luis Guzman has played more roles than half of the actors on this list combined. Odds are you've probably seen him in at least four movies, a half-a-dozen T.V. shows, and eleven commercials just while scrolling through the channels for your favorite show (which he was probably in as well).

Mark Rolston

Rolsten's extensive acting career includes notable roles in Shawshank Redemption, Aliens, and The Departed. He is often cast as the villain due to his trademark icy stare.

Zach Grenier

Tony Award winner Zach Grenier has garnered an impressive career as an American film, television, and stage actor. He can currently be seen playing family lawyer David Lee on the CBS series "The Good Wife".

10

Zeljko Ivanek

Ivanek's distinct recognizability is partly due to the years of intensive training he has put into his craft (first studying theatre at Yale and then the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art) and partly to the fact that he often lands recurring roles in T.V.'s most binge-watchable shows such as "Heroes" and "24".

11

Michael Emerson

Emerson is known for his role as Ben Linus in "Lost" and more recently as Harold Finch in CBS's hit television drama "Person of Interest". He and his wife Carrie Preston have been appearing in film and television series together since the early 2000's.
