Billy Crudup Doesn't Know How to Be a Movie Star

Billy Crudup went into debt learning how to act, not learning how to manage a public persona.

Billy Crudup is such an underrated actor but it serves him so well. He's the kind of actor where you get lost in his characters and completely believe in who those character are. Some actors are so big that when you watch them onscreen, you're never fully seeing the character because the actor is so famous that in the back of your mind you're always consciously watching the actor as much as you're watching the character they're playing. Billy disappears into his characters in a way that very few actors can.

What a voice. What a face. And can the guy deliver a line or what?! Love him. Will watch anything he's in.

Saw him at a diner in New York. I couldn’t help going up to him and saying hello he was so sweet and warm. Wonderful guy and actor

Billy is brilliant in The Morning Show, don't see enough of him which goes to show he doesn't act in crap.

A true chameleon. After watching "Without Limits" I went on IMDB to look up Crudup's filmography. When I saw he was in "Sleepers" I couldn't place him and was blown away when I realized he was the junkie killer from the first part of the movie. That brief character left an impression but I would have never guessed it was Billy Crudup. I love it when actors pull that off.

Watching his character in Morning Show reminds me of Bill Hader's impression of Keith Morrison. Like he's WAY too into the drama and loves when things are going horribly wrong. :)

Wow! He is really underrated!! He knows well how to act and I believe he really studied each role he has acted. I am hoping in 2022 he will get the massive attention he deserves. You deserve much better Billy!

I had a crush on him even before I heard him use the word ‚anathema‘… :-) . What an excellent charismatic performer he is….

[mrjuanderfuI]

Big Fish will always be one of my favorites.

I saw 5 minutes ago interview with Michael Shannon! Now - Billy Crudup - two great underrated actors!
Great voices. And two chameleons :)

[matthewpopp]

He is and will always be my Dr. Manhattan

[nannygoatj]

He is amazingly good in The Morning Show.

[malesilverfitnessmodel]

Fantastic actor! Love everything he does.

This man is the living proof that you can work steadily in the current industry with integrity. He mentioned self promotion and all I could think of was his current partner that seems to be so opposite of him on that front.

I’ve enjoyed many of his performances, but to me he’ll always be ‘Russell Hammond - The In Focus Guy”.

[maloneaqua]

My respect for this man has somehow increased

[JimElford]

He'd make a great multiverse Iron Man

[kcolonelx]

I hear so many actors say these words but their actions don't really align with what they speak. With this guy, his actions are completely in sync with his beliefs.

[bknsty]

He is and always will be Russell Hammond

[SaintVodou]

Always thought he rivaled Johnny Depp in terms of sheer beauty when they were both young…but that was before I saw Djimon Hounsou…
