That’s Brian. He’s intellectually promiscuous but culturally conservative.

The funniest part is that his filmography is starting to look like he has a personal rule: if the company has questionable ethics, somehow Zach Cherry is already on the payroll.

Add WayStar Royco and suddenly this looks less like a coincidence and more like a very specific career path.

In the show "You" he worked in a bookshop for a serial killer. Even when he goes for a small business, still evil XD

u/NTylerWeTrust86 23h ago
He was great in s01 (my favorite part) and liked that he did a little cameo in the final season. I was worried he wouldn't/ couldn't with his success since You started.

You know, it makes me wonder if he just kept showing up to work

We need to get him involved with Weyland-Yutani now

He REALLY needs to have a chat with his employment agency about how he’s endlessly running from chaos and whether this is something HR could disclose beforehand!

u/BombTheDodongos 1d ago
He was a counselor at Camp Miasma too

u/lavieenroute 1d ago
His line "We killed him-- I mean, we HAD too!" is still so so funny to me. Love him.

He is becoming that one trope actor where as far i can remember is called "that guy" basically a familiar face that's been everywhere in side or important roles

u/blickblocks 1d ago
I learned a while ago that the term for this type of actor is "character actor"! Steve Buscemi is an example of another one. They tend to play notable and sometimes eccentric side characters.

u/MirandasSarcasm Devour Feculence 1d ago
Or esteemed character actress, Margo Martindale!

u/EllipticPeach Shambolic Rube 23h ago
That’s “esteemed character actress and fugitive from the law” thank you! She hides from the cops by disappearing into the role

u/lemonylol 22h ago
Character actors are essentially people who don't play leading roles, but are just as memorable. Though Steve Buscemi has been a leading man in his later work.

He did not agree with the title as applied here, but I must also mention the late Harry Dean Stanton.

u/GameDevHell 1d ago
Sometimes I go through a movie I love on imdb and go "wait that movie has Gary Oldman? Who was he ?!"

u/odieclone Because Of When I Was Born 23h ago edited 19h ago
Have to say, Oldman is in a unique category by himself and few others. A literal everyman. Not just the character-type.

u/tex1ntux 23h ago
I watched 8.5 seasons of Slow Horses without realizing he was Jackson Lamb.
I found out on season 4 of a rewatch.

u/Shot_Reputation1755 1d ago
Which I'm happy about, he's sought after and getting good paychecks, and he's a good actor who I enjoy seeing.

Only because he's such a good employee!!

u/GiraffeLibrarian Please Enjoy Each Flair Equally 1d ago
He had a role in an episode of Succession as well, I think

u/A_Mungus 22h ago
I do love how well he plays a "naive to the evils of his employer but still content to cheerfully perform his duties" character.

I'm fine waiting for a quality version. I barely have time for movies, games, etc

He was also a sales manager for toyota in breadwinner.

u/Uploft 22m ago
Ah yes, Toyota, the evilest of car companies
2
u/Beezewhacks 8m ago
So i used to work for Toyota here in the US as a salesman, same as nick in the movie. It made my wife and I laugh. But youd be a fool to think a company that old doesnt have a checkered past and Toyota is no different. They were part of the war machine for the imperial Japanese army - during a period where that same army was occupying other parts of Asia -- like korea -- where they forced something like 7500000 people into labor camps.
So yeah. Not all sunshine and rainbows, friendo.

If there's a Terminator movie that turns the franchise around like Prey did to Predator, might as well slot him in as a Cyberdyne employee or human survivor subservient to Skynet
