he's world famous in NZ!!

(and apparently he's a bit of a wanker)

We already had a thread about this:

Faces: a thread for supporting movie/tv actors whose mugs most of you would recognize, but whose names you'd never know.

I suggested these two there:

I also think Ron Perlman fits the bill, vbecause he has an instantly recognizable face, but I doubt that many people could actually name him:

(Okay, he had the lead role in Hellboy, but it's not like he got really famous for that.)

that woman has an eerie resemblance to ron perlman... are you sure that isnt' him in drag?

I think Peter Stormare is a good one because everyone recognizes him but they're always like "they cut-off-your-johnson guy!" or "the guy who put Steve Buscemi in the woodchipper".

hell yes Peter Stormare is a good answer, been noticing him lately. And he was in the Frogger episode of Seinfeld.

In response to a gentle letter from a New York lawyer, dying of cancer in a hospital, who said he very much wanted the couple to be reunited, Fowles wrote back, "Yes, they were." On the same day he got a "horrid" letter from an American woman who angrily demanded, "Why can't you say what you mean, and for God's sake, what happened in the end?" Fowles replied curtly: "They never saw each other again."

oh shit! wrong thread!! um, yes peter stormare!
