Just watching Terminator 2 on AMC and it got me thinking about how badass I thought Robert Patrick was in that movie. For an unassuming normal dude he played a pretty darn good part.

What are some of your choices for villains that were played by actors that you really didn't think were the best choice until you saw the film?

A couple easy ones for me would be:

Heath Ledger - Batman (Obvious)
Mark Wahlberg - Fear
Robert Patrick - T2
Denzel Washington - Training Day

Any others?

IDK I was going to say Denzel in Training Day, but OP already mentioned him.

I will say that one actor that has played several villains that IMO is one of the most unappreciated actors ever is Christopher Walken.

-Edward Norton - Primal Fear.

-Brad Pitt - Fight Club.

I think the biggest unlikely villain will always be Kevin Spacey. Unusual suspects and Seven.

Christoph Waltz in Inglourious Basterds; his speaking role was absolutely awesome.
