De Niro FTW - Actors that can act!
 
Heath Ledger (RIP) was one bloke that could really make a character his own. his performance in The Dark Knight was nothing short of remarkable.

Harrison Ford fan here and he used to do character acting till he got to Fugitive, Regarding Henry and Firewall. He plays action heroes and romantic leads but still acts similar in all. 
So does Pacino, and DeNiro. Classic method actors.

Voted actors who act for this reason

Still have time for Robin Williams and Dustin Hoffman who are actors who are.

Yeah, he can span the wide gap between Keith Richards and Hunter S. Thompson Ermm LOL

LOL Exactly. Depp is not an actor that acts nor an actor that is. He is an actor that plats weird, alters the character 5% for each different movie and gets away with it because he obviously has charisma.

I might vote for the second option because I'm pretty sure my favorite actor and living god, Bill Murray, fits into that category.  While I obviously believe he's brilliant (because he is) he pretty much plays a slightly altered version of himself in every film.  Really, though, if you were Bill Murray why would you ever try to be anything else?


Time always wins.

Actors who are (hot chicks).  So I had to go for number two. Tongue
Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...
