This is a picture of a fairly well known actor in his new movie. Who do you think the actor is? Does he seem recognizable to you?

*I know the answer via external means. I don't think I would have been able to tell otherwise. If you know the answer from some other exposure to this picture/topic please don't ruin the guessing game for others.

<edit>Now that the answer has been revealed, I'll post a spoiler here, to let everyone know that they should guess before they read the rest of the thread.</edit>

I didn't look at the picture, as you so much as say that this actor is not recognizable, so it's just my intuition that says it must be Rutger Hauer [Big Grin]

Well, the eyes and face do look familiar. But I can't put a name to it without looking it up..

Eyes and nose of Tommy Lee Jones, mouth of John Malkovich. However, given the proper angle, lighting and makeup (including wig! [Smile] ), these two men would look very similar to me, so I could make a case either way.

If that is Rutger Hauer, I will, um, something.

I'm guessing, wossname, Kevin Kline.

I'm guessing Dennis Hopper. I put my fingers over his hair on the screen, and it looks like him.

I could see a case for Kevin Kline, too, especially with some aging makeup. But I seem to remember Kline as having a more pointy (?) nose (more sharp -- always reminded me of a male version of Julia Roberts' nose). Brow seems different, too, but maybe just that he's furrowing it in a broody way.

Duuno. Looks like a lot of actors Of A Certain Age, I guess. *smile

Handsome fella, regardless.

I could also second the Tommy Lee Jones guess, too. Or Richard Dean Anderson. Hm.. I just don't know.

Edit: Okay, I just cheated. No way in heck I'd ever have guessed it.

Yeah, now that you say Richard Dean Anderson, I see that a lot more in that guy's face. But he'd have to be wearing some sort of prosthetics, because the lines of his face are radically different...

I'm not spoiling the fun for anyone else, just for myself...and not even really that, since I don't enjoy guessing games. And I couldn't have found it at imdb.com if I hadn't traced it back from the original site that the photo is on. [Big Grin]

I would guess Robert Downey Jr based on the round eyes and the eyebrows. He's getting older, ja? And there's definitely a lot of Old makeups going on in that picture.

edit: woah, five posts snuck in there while I was typing O_o

I'm going to guess Mel Gibson, though I think Kevin Klein is a better guess, but I didn't think of that until I read this thread. [Smile]

It's actually at the home page. Just FYI so people don't accidentally spoil themselves.

Ok, finally figured out where on the IMDB page to look. I see it now (especially around the eyes), but would NEVER have guessed.

I did think those who were saying RDA were a bit touched, though. [Wink]

Wow. I'd never have guessed--and I tried! Even looking back and forth at two photos and comparing features I'm having a hard time processing it.

I'm going to guess Gillian Anderson or Halle Berry.

What? Why are you looking at me like that?

If they hadnt touched his eye brows I would have been able to figure it out.

Really good job with changing his appearance!
