17. Domhnall Gleeson
From one mega-franchise to another. Irish actor Domnhall Gleeson went from playing Ron’s bro Bill Weasley in the last two films into another little hit called Star Wars: The Force Awakens (perhaps you’ve heard of it), playing General Hux. He’s also worked in such acclaimed movies as About Time, Unbroken, Ex Machina, The Revenant and Brooklyn, so you could say his career is on fire. His real-life father, Brendan Gleeson, plays “Alastor Mad-Eye” Moody in the Harry Potter films, but it’s clear Domhnall’s own acting chops earned him the part.
