What are the actors/actresses that get a blank check from you (you'll watch anything they are in without needing extra motivation)? (self.cinemajoy)

For me it’s Karl Urban, Angelica Houston, Ryan Gosling, Tilda Swinton, Gary Oldman, and Jeff Bridges. Honorable Mention to Weird Al Yankovich.

That's usually the case with big franchise actors. They can live a fully lavish life on royalties alone, that gives them the opportunity to do what the actually like instead of what pays the bills. Daniel Radcliffe has been in some amazingly unhinged roles over the years after Harry Potter. Kristen Stewart does a lot of artistic films one of which has even earned her a foreign award (César Award, France). Robert Pattinson has been in major blockbusters and smaller indie films and series. They are basically living each young actors dream of having the right to be choosy with their roles.
