Patricia Arquette – 54
Born in Chicago, Illinois, Patricia Arquette has been a top Hollywood performer since the early ’90s and isn’t slowing down. Anytime we think she’s done stunning her fans, the “Medium” superstar comes back with a performance that can win over the heart of pretty much anyone.
She did so when she landed her breakthrough role in “True Romance,” when she starred as ‘Olivia’ in the ambitious project “Boyhood,” and when she appeared as one of the titular characters in the 2022 hit sci-fi series “Severance.” It’s no wonder she has received so many accolades, including the 2014 Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress.
Bob Odenkirk – 59
By 2015, nobody doubted that Bob Odenkirk was among the best American actors around. He was fabulous in the award-winning drama “Nebraska” and perfect in the role of ‘Saul Goodman’ in “Breaking Bad.” But once ‘Goodman’ was given his own series—titled “Better Call Saul”—Odenkirk proved that his best was yet to come.
From 2015 to 2022, Odenkirk portrayed the character of ‘Jimmy McGill/Saul Goodman’ to perfection and delivered a long-running performance that landed him nominations for the Emmys and the admiration of his peers. With a lot left to give, Odenkirk started his acting career in 1987 and appeared in over 40 movies and series.
Mark Margolis – 82
Most people would know the American actor Mark Margolis for his appearance in “Scarface,” arguably one of the most popular movies of all time. However, Margolis is far from being a one-trick pony; to younger viewers, he will always be remembered for his role as ‘Hector Salamanca’ in “Breaking Bad” and “Better Call Saul.” To movie buffs, he is mainly recognized for his recurring features in Darren Aronofsky films such as “Pi” and “Requiem for a Dream.”
Even though he has appeared in over 160 productions since the late ’50s, Margolis remains active today and has starred in the 2022 thriller “Broken Soldier.”
Bryan Cranston – 66
The award-winning American actor Bryan Cranston was first popularized for his role as ‘Hal’ in “Malcolm in the Middle.” He was perfect as a petty, unsatisfied “normal dad,” but he still had a lot to give. Always an acclaimed TV actor, Cranston only reached his full potential when he was cast to play the titular character of AMC’s “Breaking Bad.”
As ‘Walter White,’ Cranston inspired a generation of viewers and proved to be more than just a good comedy actor. Following his AMC success, this still-active fan-favorite landed roles in productions such as “Argo,” “Trumbo,” and the “Breaking Bad” spin-off “Better Call Saul.”
Brian Cox – 76
The winner of the 2022 Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series, Brian Cox is a Scottish actor who started his career in 1966. He collected appearances in a staggering 236 (and counting) movies and TV series—and no, we’re not even counting his extensive stage experience.
This tireless former Shakespearan actor gained notoriety for his portrayal of ‘King Lear’ before embracing the big and small screens. Nowadays, he’s best known for his work in the acclaimed series “Succession” and movies such as “Super Troopers,” “The Boxer,” “Troy,” “Bourne Identity,” and “Rise of the Planet of the Apes.”
