Jonathan Tucker

Jonathan Tucker is one of those actors who deserves way more mainstream recognition than he gets, and I genuinely don't understand why he hasn't broken through to A-list status yet. The Boston native showed real promise early on with The Virgin Suicides, and then kept turning up in genre fare like The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and The Ruins where he was usually the most grounded, believable person on screen. What really won me over was his TV work — Kingdom on DirecTV gave him a role that let him show genuine depth and physicality, and he ran with it. He has this quality where you always believe he's actually lived whatever his character has been through, which is rarer than people think. He's a working actor's working actor, the kind of guy directors keep coming back to because he just quietly makes every scene better.
