7 Underrated Actors

Some of today's greatest working actors seem perpetually ignored. Some actors have consistently provided critically-acclaimed performances throughout their careers, but have earned no acknowledgement of awards or still appear to be shunted into minor supporting parts in major blockbusters that do not do their talent justice.

Eva Green

In everything I've ever seen her in, she's been superb. As Vanessa Ives in Penny Dreadful, she delivered a chilling, emotional performance. In a historical thriller, she may also play a strong-willed leading lady, a campy seductress, a Bond agent, and more!

Dylan O’Brien

He began with Teen Wolf, and he was a standout actor. He was good at practically everything that he'd seen in. His creativity is raw and emotional, and you can see that in any role he puts his soul. He deserves much more praise than he earns.

Zoey Deutch

She brilliantly handles both comedy and drama! It seems she winds up in very mediocre movies at all times and ends up carrying the majority of the cast.

Dane DeHaan

Popular for his roles as Andrew Detmer in Chronicle, Harry Osborn in The Incredible Spider-Man 2, Lockhart in A Cure for Wellness, and Valerian in Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets, Dane William DeHaan is an American actress.

Nicole Byer

Finally, she gets some praise from hosting Nailed It! She is so much better than that, however. She deserves to be the lead in her own show, truly.

Jensen Ackles

Not a lot of viewers are watching Supernatural, but they haven't seen how he expresses feelings so genuine and raw. Sadly, the film that he was in didn't do him justice either.

Lizzy Caplan

Elizabeth Anne Caplan is an actress and model from the US. Her first appearance as an actress was in the cult TV series Freaks and Geeks. With roles in the films Mean Girls and Cloverfield, she got wider recognition, the latter of which won her a nomination for the Best Supporting Actress Saturn Award.
