Jason seems to almost always be typcast as a villain. I don't think I have seen him as a good guy, or atleast a normal person in any movie I have seen.

Yeah, a few times, but according to him it's much more fun being a baddie. You can see him in Black Hawk Down (Cpt. Steele) and Armageddon (Quincy, the scientist who came up with the drilling idea) as good guys, and he even did a rom-com called Passionada. By far my fave though, good guy wise is Mark Brydon in The State Within (BBC miniseries)

You could try Passionada and there is the biopic he did titled the Curse of Steptoe. I hesitantly recommend Good because it is not an easy movie for most people to watch.

I've just been watching him in a few epiodes of The West Wing and he's a good guy in that.
Check out Scars on 45!

He was a good guy in Event Horizon-unfortunatley poor Jason met a rather..how did Lucius Malfoy describe it?'sticky end' in the movie. Not for the faint hearted.
Never mind the good guys-he plays a villain soooo well

I'm just watching end of S5/S6 of TWW (some eps I missed 1st time around) & see that he's in a few eps as an Irish photojournalist involved w/ Donna. His character is V charming, smart, & a hottie! I'm going to check out The State Within soon- in my Netflix cue.

he plays the father of the children in P5b4eter Pan and does a fantastic job. Completely hilarious. But then on the other hand, he plays Captain Hook as well in the film, so there he is back being a bad guy.

Mr. Darling and Captain Hook have always been played by the same person, so it's part of the role of Captain Hook.

I can recommend the BBC mini series "The State Within" where he plays the British ambassador to the US. He's excellent in that one.

He was a good guy in Capital City which was a tv show from yonks ago. I think it was one of the first shows he ever did.
