Robert Sheehan

Robert Sheehan is one of those actors whose charisma seems almost impossible to contain in a frame. I first noticed him as Nathan in Misfits, where his motormouth chaos basically carried the show, and he brought that same live-wire energy to Klaus in The Umbrella Academy. He is Irish, from Portlaoise, and there is a loose, theatrical quality to him that makes even messy projects watchable. I think he is at his best playing damaged, funny outsiders rather than conventional leads. Mortal Engines and The Mortal Instruments did not fully use him, but in the right unhinged role he is genuinely magnetic.
