Rory Culkin

Rory Culkin is one of those actors who could have coasted entirely on the family name — being Macaulay's little brother is a headline in itself — but he clearly had no interest in that. What strikes me most about him is how consistently he gravitates toward the quiet, damaged, interior type of role: the shy kid in Signs, the wounded teenager in You Can Count on Me, the hapless outsider in Columbus. He's never been a blockbuster guy, and I get the sense that's entirely by design. His turn in Lords of Chaos as Euronymous showed real range and genuine menace, and the Waco miniseries reminded me he can carry dramatic weight in a long-form story too. He's the kind of actor where you see the name in the credits and think, okay, this project is serious.
