I liked Felicity Jones in a few movies
I also think Joel Kinnaman is pretty good, but I think he needs better roles. Recently caught Edge of Winter, a pretty good flick with him

 

Oscar Isaac
Saoirse Ronan
Adam Driver
Matthew Macfadyn
Melanie Lynsky
Jimmi Simpson

My main man COOP

 

Natalie Portman
Anya Taylor Joy
Amy Adams
Rebecca Ferguson
Chloe Moretz
Margot Robbie


Leonardo DiCaprio
Paul Walter Hauser
Christian Bale



I don't know a lot of the actors the past 10-15 years...by name anyways.

I would've put Sam Rockwell at the top of my list but I checked and he's 52.

 

Milla Jovovich, maybe not so much as a dramatic actress, but she kicks butt in Resident Evil movies, that deserves attention. She was also great in Perfect Getaway

 

Vince Vaughn is 51. But that is as close as I can get.

 

do you mean Bradley Cooper? I also think he's good. Liked him in Silver Linings Playbook, A Star is Born, Aloha

 

I think Casey Afleck is pretty good also. I liked him in a few movies like Manchester by the Sea, Gone Baby Gone, Triple 9

 

also James McAvoy, he was great in Split

 

I thought he was older.


He has a great voice.... should be narrating documentaries.

 

Olivia Cooke

 

Joel is great in the new season of In Treatment (S4)

 

Leonardo DiCaprio
Ryan Gosling
Adam Driver
Christian Bale
Oscar Isaac

Among others, I'm sure.

 

originally I thought of cutting it at 40 to concentrate on younger actors, I guess that would not have helped it

Jude Law is good also. I recently watched movie Rhythm Section with Law and Blake Lively. Both were good in it.
also Michelle Williams, she's very good in several movies

 

Ed Helms
Ken Jeong
Emma Stone
Jason Sudeikis
Joel McHale
Scarlet Johansson

 

Driver
Bale
Adams
Dano, maybe...

So many of my favourite actors are pver 50 - or 60...

 

Amy Adams-Sigh

 

a couple more

Vera Farmiga
Kate Beckinsale.... she kicks butt in those Underworld movies
