We'll Guess Your Favorite Movie If You Tell Us Which Actors You Love To Watch

There probably is not a single person in the world who doesn't enjoy watching films. Regardless of whether we do so at the cinema or from the comfort of our own couch, film watching is a great way to relax.

Indeed, movies allow us to disconnect from our own personal lives. We can leave our worries behind us by immersing ourselves into fictional worlds. We might not care all that much about our casual acquaintances or our work colleagues, but we do care about the people that we see on the big screen (at least most of the time). Why? Because we end up invested in their story. We get to know everything about them and we get to see them vulnerable. We want them to succeed. Or else we want them to fail.

Of course, the characters that we fall in love with (or end up annoyed with) are not real. They're played by actors, usually incredibly talented ones. More often than not, actors can either make or break the characters that they play. A good actor will make the character unforgettable. A bad actor will make us want to stop watching the movie altogether. Everyone has their favorite actors. And get this: sometimes our actor preferences influence the types of movies that we like!

Question 1

Ryan Gosling?

Ryan Gosling has always been pretty serious about acting. Even as a kid he was part of Disney Channel's The Mickey Mouse Club. Later, he appeared in family entertainment programs such as Are You Afraid of the Dark? Despite his impressive experience, it took him quite a long time to land his first starring film role. Indeed, it was not until 2001 that he bagged the role of Daniel "Danny" Balint in the drama film The Believer. He established himself as leading man material in 2005 when he appeared in The Notebook alongside Rachel McAdams (Wikipedia).

Question 2

Emma Watson?

Few actors get as lucky as Emma Watson. As most fans are probably well aware, she rose to fame after she landed her very first professional acting role. The role was that of Hermione Granger in the magical Harry Potter movie series, of course. We might still associate Watson with the nerdy witch to this day but she is out to prove to us that she can play a myriad of characters. For example, she recently starred in the 2017 techno-thriller film The Circle and the 2017 musical romantic fantasy movie Beauty and the Beast (Wikipedia).

Question 3

Mila Kunis?

Mila Kunis was only 14 years old when she was cast as Jackie Burkhart in the once very popular sitcom That '70s Show. It was while filming this show that Kunis first met her husband, Ashton Kutcher, although they did not get together until years after the show had wrapped up. It took Kunis another 10 years to land her breakout film role: she portrayed Rachel in the romantic comedy movie Forgetting Sarah Marshall which was released more than a decade ago now, back in 2008 (Wikipedia).

Five years later, in 1999, she landed the role of Padmé Amidala in Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace.

It was not until 2009 that he made his first appearance on the big screen.

Question 35

Amber Heard?

Amber Heard is in the news for all the wrong reasons at the moment. But let's not focus on her personal life. Instead, let's have a look at her professional life. After all, it is her acting that we are judging here, not her personality. For someone who began acting less than two decades ago, Heard's filmography is pretty impressive.

Today, however, he is best known not for his work on the little screen but rather for his roles in famous Hollywood movies. For example, we tend to associate him with films such as Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Alice in Wonderland, and Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (Wikipedia).

Of course, the film that made her truly famous was The Hunger Games (which, as most are probably well aware, is part of a famous franchise).
