Sir Ian McKellen?

[Naiwen]

He's best known for his roles in "Star Wars" and as "Magneto" in all of his "X-men" movies. I haven't seen him in any other movies than this myself. I do personally think he's a great actor and a person and deserves the knighthood. How about you? What do you think of him according to you as a person and an actor?

Star Wars? According to his filmography, he never played in Star Wars.

Smiley's right; he never starred in Star Wars.

Great actor, great person and a great representative of the broader LGBTQ community.

He's such a tremendous person, and I love that he's out there at the forefront representing the LGBTQ community!

That he’s starred in “Star Wars”, not that he’s a fantastic person. I agree that he is one, @PGen98.

Ah, understood. Yep, there were a couple of actors that look like him in it, and his Lord of the Rings counterpart, Christopher Lee played Count Dooku, but sadly he was not a part of it

I’ve thought he’s played “Qui-Gong” in “Star Wars”, but now I see that I’m mistaken about it.

Yep, I like him in Lord of the Rings and as Mr Holmes.

 

[Cory]

He's probably one, if not my most favorite actor in The Lord of the Rings. He aced Magneto pretty well too.

Wonderful actor. Loved him as Gandalf.
