favorite tv/movie crossover actors

Suresam85 · 07-13-2007, 12:34 PM

Which actors that have crossed over from movies to tv (or visa versa) do you just LOVE?

Lili Taylor from Six Feet Under has a new show called State of Mind coming out. I am curious to see it; I loved her in Mystic Pizza.

Another favorite of mine is America Ferrera from Ugly Betty. She was great in Real Women Have Curves & Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants.

I like Sally Field on Brothes and Sisters and even though I quit watching Shark due to a scheduling conflict, I think James Woods is perfect in the role. I'm sure there are other examples but that's all I can think of right now.

Will Smith for sure and I completely agree with Lili Taylor. I loved her in Six Feet Under but I think she's outdone herself with State of Mind.

I was also thinking how great it is to see Jason Priestley back in action. He's on a show called Side Order of Life... right before that show State of Mind. I don't know if he's done any notable movies but he's great in this show!

James Woods comes to mind. One of the best actors period.
William Peterson totally reinvented himself with CSI.

Out of the new crop coming up one name stands out...
Shia Lebeouf-that kid is going to be around for a long time.

Alec Baldwin. Even though he's a psycho in real life, he's a fabulous actor. I haven't seen too many episodes of 30 rock, but I he is priceless in that show. And any movie that he is in, he plays a very interesting character.

He's come a long way from Knots Landing!

Shia Lebeouf? What has been in? Do you consider Lili Taylor from the new crop?
