Christopher Plummer
On Broadway, he is royalty—his Tony award tally stands at seven noms and two wins. On the big screen, he is impervious to the rules of age, continuing to thrive well into his 70's for big guys like Michael Mann, Terrence Malick, and Spike Lee. He is Arthur Christopher Orme Plummer, Companion of the Order of Canada, and his career is the paragon for serious thesps everywhere. Here, at 76, he electrifies Syriana, further emphasizing—to the delight of the audience and the dismay of the impudent Saudi prince—that the rich, forceful Plummer voice is always the most powerful thing in the room.
