Greg Sestero

Greg Sestero is, to me, the most likable accidental legend in modern cult cinema. Yes, he played Mark in The Room, but his real triumph is The Disaster Artist, a memoir that turned a notorious disaster into something warm, funny, and weirdly moving. Plenty of actors would bury an embarrassing credit; Sestero leaned in, told the truth with affection, and earned a film adaptation out of it. That self-aware honesty is rare. I respect him less as the actor and more as the storyteller who found gold in a fiasco, which is a far harder and more human skill.
