We're staying Down Under this week as we cover the career of Jason Clarke, one of Hollywood's great journeyman character actors. From supporting parts in Zero Dark Thirty and Oppenheimer to his leading roles in Everest, Pet Sematary and The Caine Mutiny Court Martial, we talk about his ability to play lawyers both good and bad, fishing simulators and Earth's highest mountain.

We're back with our first new episode of the year. Andrew and Stephen go down under to check out the career of Australian actor Guy Pearce. I Know That Face explores his less-than-humble beginnings in L.A. Confidential and Memento to his decision to switch from leading big-budget pictures to headlining smaller films such as Brimstone, Lockout, The Proposition and The Rover or appearing in supporting roles in The Hurt Locker, The King's Speech and Prometheus. Pearce was recently nominated for an Oscar for his role as Harrison Lee Van Buren in 2024's The Brutalist.

It's our final character actor podcast of the year and what better way to end it than with our second Philip Seymour Hoffman episode? Starting from after his Oscar win for Capote, we cover his return to low budget indies in Before the Devil Knows You're Dead, further Oscar nominations in Charlie Wilson's War, his best performance ever in The Master and his final masterful lead turn in A Most Wanted Man.

Call us Captain Ahab this week because we just landed a White Whale. In part one of a two-part episode, we're diving as deep as we can into the career of Philip Seymour Hoffman. From his work with Paul Thomas Anderson to blockbuster fare such as Twister and all the way to his 2005 Oscar win for Capote, Hoffman was one of the greatest actors of the late 20th and early 21st Century and it's an honour to cover him for our fifth birthday.

And we're back! I Know That Face has returned from our summer hibernation with a whole episode dedicated to everyone's favourite part of Titanic. No, it's not Celine Dion, it's Victor Garber. A consummate Canadian professional, Garber has been acting since forever. From rom-coms like Sleepless in Seattle and Happiest Season to thrillers like Self/Less and Exotica, Garber has added that secret spice to a wide variety of roles.

Of the many moustaches we've covered, the best and most consistent belongs to Sam Elliott. With a career stretching across 50 years, the actor made his name in Westerns and often played men of action. He also diversified and played around with his image in the likes of The Big Lebowski and A Star is Born. Best known for Tombstone and 1883, Sam Elliott has been a reliable presence and you can hear us talk about why here.
