Callum Keith Rennie

Callum Keith Rennie is the kind of character actor I always notice and never tire of. British-born, Canadian-raised, he broke through as punk rocker Billy Tallent in Hard Core Logo and then stepped into Due South as Stanley Kowalski. What I appreciate is his refusal to be smoothed into a leading-man mold, he brings an edgy, slightly dangerous texture to everything he touches. Actors like him are the connective tissue of film and television, the faces that make a scene feel lived-in and real. That he's also worked as a producer suggests a craftsman who cares about the whole frame, not just his own lines.
