There are some movies that don’t need any help and there are some that are beyond help. Despite that, I think there are some actors who always make a movie better than it would have been. They aren’t always leads, but any scene they’re in is worth watching. My list would start with: JK Simmons Rachel McAdams Michael B Jordan Tilda Swinton Jeff Daniels Ming-Na Wen

Who are the actors you feel the same way about? Or do you disagree with the premise?

    I think it depends on the type of movie. Action or superhero? A cameo from Sam Jackson is always fun. Comedy? Will Smith, or someone like Tina Fey.

    However, you’re absolutely right, for any movie or show Rachel McAdams enhances it. Game Night would have been an absolute bore but she made it honestly really funny. Eurovision Song Contest: Story of Fire Saga is amazing with her and Will Farrell. She turned the turd that was True Detective from unwatchable to, well it was still a turd but she was one of the highlights of it. Oh and About Time? Just perfect, tears throughout.
