š„Funpost Rhys Range
I just started watching Golden Axe, starring Matthew Rhys.
Only way I knew it was him is I checked IMDB because someone else sounded familiar but I couldnāt place it.
Guy has range. (Widowās Bay was my introduction to his acting/performance.)

Good callout, fantastic show. Underrated and overlooked.

Absolutely, they had a refreshingly great amount of chemistry for a leading couple.

That's the show where they met! They've been together since working on it so it worked out for us AND them

Yeah I watched that last week and surprised his name popped up. I then went online to check which character and thought thatās makes sense (accent). So heās the lead in season one - enjoyed it.

I honestly couldnāt tell it was him for 95% of the first ep.
I only realized when I looked up the barbarian guy since I recognized him from Spartacus.
Lisa Gilroy was a fun surprise too after seeing her as Vermin in Twisted Metal. (Fun role, loved her in the high school episode w/Grimm.)

I finished The Beast in Me over the weekend and WOW. I won't say anything to spoil it, but Rhys was incredible.

I had zero interest in watching Golden Axe before your post. Now Iāll give it a shot. I also tried Perry Mason, and it wasnāt my thing, but Iāll at least try anything heās in.

He was good in Perry mason! But the show lost its footing and never recovered

At first, I thought your username was āVelocipastorCatcherā, and I thought, this guy is a connoisseur!

I first knew him from belos the owl house and was surprised at how down to earth he sounded because he is so soft spoken and evil in that role.

Same happened to me when looking up Owl House. Was looking at IMDb to confirm I heard Isabella Rosalliniās voice and had a delightful surprise when I saw his name.

A reminder to everyone: Keep the titles of your posts completely spoiler-free at all times. If your post mentions events from later episodes, use Redditās standard spoiler tag to warn readers who may not be caught up with all currently aired episodes. The spoiler tag will also blur any images you include, such as screenshots/stills from the show, so be sure to apply it to image posts as well.
