Actors with the greatest transformation from young to older as far as characters go.

One guy that comes to mind for me is James Spader. He was kind of on the outside of the brat pack in the eighties and considered kind of a nice pretty boy in most movies. As he got into the 2000’s with roles in Boston Legal, The office, and The Blacklist he has been awesome playing middle aged guys who seem apathetic or very nonchalant about stuff. I personally think he’s great now compared to what he was in his 20’s. Who you got.

Anthony Michael Hall. He doesn't act much anymore but he's so NOT the Geek from 16 Candles it's astounding. Many actors grow up and out of their child stage but others still show a semblance of their former selves.

What's the other movie with him and Charlie Sheen?

Leonardo DiCaprio
From a young terrible actor
To an old over-actor like Pacino

I've never liked Spader. He plays the same obnoxious asswipe in every movie. I have to believe he's the same in real life. Oh, and he has a very punchable face..

Rob Lowe. I don't think anyone knew about his comedy chops until Parks and Rec.

John C Reilly went from very serious actor in award winning movies to being known as the comic relief in movies.

Tom Hanks after starting off in Bosom Buddies to where he is now.
John Travolta and Robin Williams also started off in roles I doubt many would have guessed how far they have gotten.

Bette Davis went from a sex symbol early in her career to playing crazies and horror roles later on. I’ve never watched her early stuff, but she could be pretty creepy in her work 1960’s and on.

Josh Brolin. Did he even have a career between The Goonies and No Country for old men?
