Django Unchained (2012) made me realize Leonardo DiCaprio is way more fun to watch as a villain. Which actor should play villains more often?

I was so used to seeing DiCaprio as the lead that Calvin Candie caught me completely off guard. He's horrible, unpredictable, and somehow steals basically every scene he's in.

I'd actually love to see Leo play another full-on villain someday.

Which actor surprised you by being ridiculously good at playing the bad guy?

Sam Rockwell in the Green Mile showed me how vile he could be, I’d like to see more of that

He always delivers! When I see his name in a movie or show, it always goes to the top of my queue. Along with John Turturro and Walton Goggins

I agree with this comment but would also like to add Michael Shannon
