How about Vigo Mortensen?

After being Aragon in the LOTR, what has he done? Some movie about a horse and as a submarine officer. Two movies.

Totally type-cast into fantasy movies I guess.

I have no idea...I could never go see him in any other movie after he shot his mouth off about politics.

This may be on Netflix or may not but try and find it and watch it.

“Captain Alatriste: The Spanish Musketeer” (Story set in early 1660s)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captain_Alatriste

I thought Mortensen was quite good in this!

Captain Alatriste is a fictional character much in the same way Bernard Cornwall’s Richard Sharpe is. Arturo Pérez-Reverte is the author; in Spanish historical fiction he is their Cornwall equivalent.

The movie ends with the destruction of the Spanish Tercios (regiments) at the Battle of Rocroi which marks the end of Spanish infantry dominance in Europe. The movie implies that Alatriste does not survive.
