Is this guy a good actor?

No. He's the worst

I thought he was all right in Magic City.

Yes he is. I haven't seen anything of his in awhile but from what I've seen like from Watchmen and some other older stuff I can vouch and say he's good. I'd definitely want to see him audition for Joel and see how it goes.

No, he's not a good actor at all. His delivery is awful. Once you notice how he takes a breath before every line it'll drive you insane. He's relied more on looks than talent throughout his career and is generally a disaster waiting to happen to movies. (Box office flops/non-releases/death to projects etc) There are much better choices for Joel out there.

Stop trolling and take your buddy with you.

He's a fantastic actor
although I really want Josh Brolin as Joel in a Last of Us film. He could play Joel's brother, though

That would be funny if it were true, but it's not. He's a really good actor with a lot of range. I've watched that awful show Supernatural just for a chance at a glimpse of him.

Your only basis is his breathing? The guy is a really good actor.
