My Take
Patrick Gallagher is the ultimate that guy, the character actor whose face you instantly recognize even if the name escapes you. The Canadian actor was a memorably gruff Attila the Hun in Night at the Museum and a deadpan delight as Coach Tanaka on Glee. But what genuinely thrilled me was his BAFTA-nominated work in the video game Ghost of Tsushima, a performance full of quiet dignity. I have huge respect for actors who pour real craft into supporting and voice roles that lesser performers might phone in. He elevates every project, and gamers and film fans alike owe him more credit.
