I'm with you there! She's not really that obscure but I adore Melanie Lynskey and will pretty much watch anything she's in. I used to have that rule for Sam Rockwell - I loved him in Lawn Dogs, a hundred years ago - but I don't like his newer stuff as much. (Looking at you, Three Billboards.) I get very excited whenever I see Saul Rubinek in something. He actually looks a lot like my husband so maybe that's it - but I really enjoy him. I got really happy when I saw him on Schitt's Creek in a very minor role. |

Frank Dillane is a talented young actor that I'd love to see break out into a major role. He is the son of Stephen Dillane (Stannis on GoT) and was in Fear the Walking Dead, and played a young Tom Riddle in the Harry Potter movies. I thought he'd be a perfect pick to play Paul in the new Dune (although Timothee Chalamet did a fine job).

| Not sure how obscure he is, but I think Michael Vartan (played Michael Vaughn in Alias) is simply gorgeous. |

Bryan Greenberg. I've followed his career since he was a supporting character on One Tree Hill.
I also have a list of Hallmark/Lifetime Christmas movie stars that I commit to watching all of their bad movies. Jake Epstein from Degrassi is the king of that list now. |
She's part of the Fox acting / theatre producing family dynasty. And she's a total loon. Met her, know several insane men she dated. |
| Steve Coogan, Romola Garai. |
| Kristin Kreuk - she has aged beautifully. Also Kristen Stewart - very dirty hot. |
| I don’t know if this qualifies as obscure but I love Patrick Warburton. |
Are you also a fan of Frasier? Poor Donny when Daphne leaves him on their wedding day. |
I was coming here to say Stephen Dillane. He’s been in so much good stuff. His portrayal of Thomas Jefferson in the John Adams miniseries blew my mind. |
Always found him really sexy too. |
| Isn’t obscure celebrity an oxymoron? |
Oh my god, I opened this thread to post about him. I loved him in Prime with Uma Thurman and How to Make it in America on HBO. |
I had no idea he was on Frasier! I'm the right age to have seen that show but I haven't seen a lot of it - this gives me a reason to. |
| I love Lake Bell. She is hilarious. |
