57 | !! Tropes: |
58 | |
59 | * ByronicHero: Literally, in one case. Other roles may fall into this trope as well. |
60 | * DyeingForYourArt: ''Trainspotting''. He's also not above shaving his head for a role; notably in ''Frankenstein'' -- he shaved his head completely to better accommodate the "monster" makeup and wore a wig as Frankenstein. For ''Someone Who'll Watch Over Me'' he let his hair and beard grow out so he'd look more like someone who'd been held captive for months. |
61 | * FakeNationality: |
62 | ** [[UsefulNotes/CanadianAccents Canadian]]: In ''Afterglow''. |
63 | ** FakeAmerican: ''Dead Man's Walk'', ''Film/{{Hackers}}'', ''Film/MelindaAndMelinda'', ''Series/EliStone'', ''Series/{{Dexter}}'', ''Film/{{Mindhunters}}'' (southern accent) and ''Film/DarkShadows''. |
64 | ** UsefulNotes/ScottishEnglish: Plays a Scot and uses the accent in ''Trainspotting'', ''Complicity'', and ''The Flying Scotsman''. |
65 | * MistakenNationality: Scottish, as a result of his accents. ''Series/TheLateLateShow'' talk show host Creator/CraigFerguson declared him an Honourary Scotsman. |
66 | * RomanceOnTheSet: Met (ex-wife) Creator/AngelinaJolie on the set of ''Film/{{Hackers}}''. Dated Creator/JenniferEsposito, who was in ''Film/{{Dracula 2000}}'' with him. |
67 | * {{Typecast}}: By being cast in vampire films (examples include ''Film/{{Dracula 2000}}'', ''Film/DarkShadows'' and ''Film/{{Byzantium}}''). |
