no wonder he is a hollywood legend

Willem Dafoe is one of the most iconic, versatile, and stylish actors out there. From his iconic performance as the green goblin in Spider-Man and playing in American Psycho to The Lighthouse, Finding Nemo, and numerous Wes Anderson films, the range of this man’s filmography is something every actor dreams of. Dafoe is loved by viewers young and old, dominating Letterboxd as the most-watched actor in 2021 and 2022. But despite being in the industry for nearly 50 years, he has yet to win a single Oscar. Therefore, I feel like it’s about time to shine some light on this man's legendary career, have a closer look at his unique performances, and see why Willem Dafoe is an actor you simply cannot replace.

Willem Dafoe just has an exceptional face. Beautiful, terrifying, unexpected, funny. He was born to be on film.

Academy awards are overrated. That man will always be a legend without Hollywood's permission.

You know what he deserves? A lifetime achievement award, because his life is an achievement.

Met him in a lift once in Ireland, no picture.” I just told him I’m a massive fan and i love your sh*t”. He turned around gave me a small hug and said “ this has been a lovely moment for me, i love meeting kind souls” we both stood back and rode the elevator down to the ground floor, the doors opened and he stepped out first turning to me as he said ‘ have a great night’. I will never forget you Willem Dafoe, Legend.

Dafoe steals the show in every scene and is my favorite part of any movie he’s in. He’s truly a one of a kind actor

[tjwarwick]

Willem Dafoe strikes me as a David Bowie like figure of the acting world

[h_mE]

I can hate Hollywood all day long until the cows come home, but I can't go a minute without loving this man.

[themeddler]

He's literally the prettiest gremlin. Our goblin king himself. The original skrunkly.

[revoktorment]

He is a way better actor than a lot of oscar winners who always play versions of themselves with a different job...

[gmg]

How this man has never won an Oscar is beyond me.

[Laerei]

Alright, you convinced me, I'll watch all of Dafoe movies in the order of their release year.

We have been denied of one of the greatest Joker performances ever Willem Dafoe!

[videt]

Willem Dafoe is the joyfully eccentric neighbor we all wish we had.

[stephenhenderson]

You can tell Dafoe does it really for the love of acting, He is in everything from small indy fims to blockbusters

[Marijnvdm]

Dafoe as Joker vs Pattinson as Batman needs to happen

[ihatejellybeans]

I have had a crush on him since I was a kid in the 2000s and it burns brighter every time I learn more about him

Boondock Saints is and always will be legendary. And Willen Dafoe is at the heart of that movie. Didn’t know his role in creating was so big. All the more respect for him
