What about Rowdy Roddy!

Rowdy Roddy Piper, not only for his performance in John Carpenter’s “They Live”, one of my favorite movies, but also his portrayal of the multi-layered and powerful character of “Da Maniac”. RIP

Love Peacemaker but it's Bautista hands down.

John Cena and Dave Bautista can both be hilarious comedic actors. I'd give John the edge in the being the funnier of the two. But I've also seen Dave play serious, sweet, dramatic, even menacing. Hell he was basically all 4 of those in Knock at the Cabin, alone. Dude has got range.

Dwayne Johnson is good at playing Dwayne Johnson™.

his comedic chops seems really good in the movie named "the rundown"

Yeah, I do feel like early acting career Dwayne had more range. More recently he is just the rock in various settings, wardrobes and occasional wigs. It's probably not even entirely his fault though. Presumably the producers and directors are telling him to be this way. He's been typecast as the same stereotypical cocky macho guy over and over. And don't get me wrong, he's still funny sometimes. But he is still just portraying basically himself, most of the time.

Where is Mr Savage? Bonesaw is missing. Need more Macho Man.

I forget his name but far left, but he is amazing in Glass Onion

[–] SilverFlame@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Pretty sure thats Dave Bautista. I know him as Drax from Marvel

[–] Athena5898@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 day ago

Bautista is a pretty amazing dramatic actor when given the chance

[–] damnthefilibuster@lemmy.world 0 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Does OP believe the answer is John Cena? Because Dwayne is the best actor amongst these three!

[–] driving_crooner@lemmy.eco.br 1 points 3 days ago

Nice try Dwayne!

Oh hi Dwayne! Cool that you found your way to lemmy.
