My Take
Josef Altin is the sort of character actor I genuinely root for. Known to millions as Pypar in Game of Thrones, he has also turned in memorable work in Eastern Promises and on the London stage at the Royal Court. What draws me to him is range: he moves between gritty film roles, television, and theatre without losing his edge. I tend to think the actors who give weight to supporting parts are the ones who hold a story together, and Altin does that with a quiet, lived-in intensity that I find far more compelling than mere star wattage.
