Actor: Werner Herzog

Werner Herzog’s acting career is a byproduct of a much larger directing one, and directors hire him for the voice, which is unmistakable and delivers menace at a conversational volume.

Jack Reacher gives him a villain who describes chewing off his own fingers in a Siberian prison, delivered so calmly that it is more disturbing than anything the film stages.

The Mandalorian gave him the Client, and he voices himself in animated comedy regularly. He has been consistently good-humoured about the whole parallel career.
