5He has a reputation for being slightly mad and off-colour, which reflects in some of his roles.

28!!Tropes & Trivia in his works:
29
30* HeAlsoDid: Rhys was briefly the singer of Music/SuperFurryAnimals before they was famous.
31* PromotedFanboy: Like Creator/AndrewGarfield, he was also a huge ''Spider-Man'' fan long before playing Curt Connors/ the Lizard.
32* PlayingAgainstType: Otto Hightower of ''Series/HouseOfTheDragon'' appears as a significant departure from the roles which made him famous--especially as the role sees him as a straight-laced ManipulativeBastard (even more than Rasputin from ''Film/TheKingsMan'', as he is still mostly a LargeHam in that).
