Christian Bale
He's bald down there. . .like an action figure.

What I Think:
So, what makes Christian Bale such a great actor? Firstly, he can play any character he wants; he can be a sympathetic dramatic character, a hilarious comic character, or a kick-ass action character—he can be an incredibly nice good guy, or an incredibly evil bad guy. Secondly, he does all that with an accent. Being born in Wales and raised in England, he has a thick British accent, which his roles force him to hide. Fortunately, Christian has no problem hiding his accent; in fact, he is the master of accents. It's hard to find two of his movies in which he uses the same accent.
From what I've heard, Christian is being considered as the next James Bond. Personally, I think that would be amazing. I think he could definitely give Sean Connery a run for his money as the best Bond.

These quotes sound better with the accent.
