Michael Wincott

Description
I Know That Face returns! This week Andrew and Stephen discuss the King of weirdo character actors: Michael Wincott. Canadian by birth and an off-the-wall actor by choice, Wincott broke through in the likes of Oliver Stone's Talk Radio and 1991's Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. His raspy, sensuous voice and dark, devilish smile made him an easy pick for villains like Top Dollar in The Crow, Philo Gant in Strange Days and Gary Soneji in Along Came A Spider. Always selective in his roles, Wincott became more choosy as the years went by appearing to go on hiatus after 2017. In 2022, he reappeared after a 5-year break in Jordan Peele's sci-fi horror blockbuster Nope as cryptic, disaffected cinematographer Antlers Holst.
