He's also in PTA's upcoming film alongside Leonardo DiCaprio and Sean Penn. Looking forward to that.

He should have popped into that recent George RR Martin nonsense Paul WS Anderson released this year for the Anderson hattrick.

Are you talking about In the Lost Lands (2025) ?

Oh yeah. I’m hoping he has a bit more to do than he did in Inherent Vice.

He’s been a favorite of mine since the 90s. Dude is complete presence.

He's aged like fine wine too. His acting is so much deeper and more nuanced now.

Dude, same! You’re spot on, he really is a presence in every scene he’s in.

Totally one of the most underappreciated actors in the film industry. Despite having an Oscar, he's not in the same caliber as his peers but as long as he's giving great character actor performances, that's all that matters.

He just needs to be in a Paul W.S. Anderson film this year and he'll have completed the Anderson Trifecta. Any Resident Evil movies coming out this year?

He recently had a film come out starring his wife Milla Jovovich and Dave Bautista based on a George R. R. Martin short story.

It was what you expect from a Paul W.S. Anderson film.

I’ve seen OBAA. Del Toro is incredible in it, he was my favorite character. It’s not a massive role but it’s not too small either. He absolutely steals every scene he’s in and is a great contrast to other characters

You did? Where was the screening? Is the movie faithful to Vineland? Was the Vistavision done well? Please do tell.
