Walton Goggins could play an inanimate piece of cheese and he'd still be hot
He really does bring it in every role I've seen him in.
His best so far will always be on Sons of Anarchy. His performance on that show was absolutely glorious.
His character was the only one on that whole show that I gave a shit about.
Watch The Shield (not to be confused with the shitty Marvel series from the 2010s), where he co-stars with Michael Chiiklis as a corrupt LA cop. It's a great series inspired by the IRL Rampart PD Scandal
The marvel series is Agents of Shield, and it started off ok… but then CAWS threw a bit of a wrench in their plans.
What? AOS only got good after the Winter Soldier tie in twist. Season 4 is some of the best TV ever.
That twist was always planned. And sure, it started out OK... but then it kept getting better almost every episode, and every single season until the end, despite Marvel Studios deciding to ignore Marvel TV stuff, and despite the budget cuts in the last few seasons.
Now I want to see him play an animated piece of cheese ... for science, of course.
Monterrey Jack, of course.
Look I know he's had plenty of amazing roles, but I still have this weird feeling of seeing an actor I've loved for a long time being seen and loved by so many people for the first time. Like saying "I'm glad he's finally getting his due" feels dismissive of his amazing work before now but that's still how I feel.
True, I had a similar reaction watching this video on Inside Games where one of the guys says that Walton Goggins is finally having a breakthrough (no timestamp because I'm lazy). Like dude... the man's been a household name for the better part of two decades now, even if he had a bit of a cool down for a few years recently. I mention The Shield in another comment, but he co-starred in what was at the time the most watched cable drama series (back when those words meant something) of all time. Walton Goggins is great and has been for years
He's from my hometown, he's always been amazing in anything he plays especially bad guys you like. I'm always glad he gets good work and it's long deserved he's got a leading role. I love his voice too, everyone where I grew up sounds just like him haha.
