I would like to see JT play some sort of super-spy/suave gentleman thief type character. He always gets 'gritty' roles in what feels like a deliberate casting against type, but I reckon he would have the charisma to pull off something a bit more action oriented and fun.I've always held that JT was a good actor.
I think it's just taken a while for casting directors to catch up with me and to start giving him decent parts to play.
Almost watched it Saturday night, just couldn’t bring myself to.
Felt like the most baity of awards baits.What put you off? Were you as disappointed as I was that this wasn't a new Harry Palmer series? Because the reality is that nobody should replace Michael Caine in that role, not even JT.

I'd recommended persevering. The first half is very dull. But the second half is much much better.For All Mankind was probably closest to “my bag”, but I found it a bit dull and gave up half way through.
As I said on the other thread, I was disappointed JT wasn't doing a movie length version of Dick in a Box, with...Palmer.What put you off?

I agree, glad I stuck with it as ended up loving it, and as per this review and what Cas has said, apple seem well a little bit crap at advertising stuff since For all Mankind S2 is due to drop very soon! And I only saw this by going into it!I'd recommended persevering. The first half is very dull. But the second half is much much better.
