Bobby Cannavale Puns

So this guy has voiced Gavin the hormone monster (the alpha type monster who bullied Tyler in the second season), he's Nick agent in season 4 where they're all in Nick's future daydream and also he's Jimmy Crystal in Sing 2, he's a quality voice actor

Does have the look and the feeling. Also he's Italian. Would have been perfect for a prequel showing us Tony's first steps in the mafia.

The cheating character is confronted by his wife's brother, or his friend in a garage. When he realizes he's been made he says something along the lines of Please don't tell her you'll ruin my life and the BIL/friend says You kinda did that to yourself already/You made your bed.

My wife saw a House episode with Ray Abruzzo in it and said he looks like the guy from the movie where he's a cheating husband that gets called out! Then we figured out she was thinking of Bobby Cannavale and now we cannot figure out wtf movie or show she's thinking of.

If you think of anyone that looks like him that has a similar scene, or even just the scene itself, let me know. Thank you

I’m not going to pretend Jolt, written by Scott Wascha and directed by Tanya Wexler, is a great film.

It’s a mostly-by-the-numbers cartoonish action flick with a cute premise, decent script, decent directing, and good performances. If over-the-top action and not thinking for 92 minutes sounds appealing, I think this film will more than adequately entertain.

The cute premise is that Lindy Lewis, played by Kate Beckinsale, has a super-hero-esque version of intermittent explosive disorder. When she sees unfairness, she becomes homicidally angry and preternaturally capable of expressing that rage through violence.

It, among other things, provides a built-in excuse for female rage to be expressed without either explanation or justification. Which is a fun touch. And Beckinsale goes for it on this front.

But the refreshing touch, for me, was Laverne Cox’s role. She plays Detective Nevin. And whether Nevin is cis- or trans-gender is irrelevant to the film. So it’s not even hinted at. Laverne Cox was hired to play a woman detective, and that’s the beginning and end of both the casting and the way the role is played.

I liked Cox in the role. I liked her interplay with Cannavale as her partner, Detective Vicars. It was ‘opposites but they get along because they accept each other’s foibles’ tropery, but Cox and Cannavale made it work. And Cox as the ‘bad cop’ when she had to deal with ‘all the rage issues, all the time’ Lindy (Beckinsale’s character) was also fun. Cox didn’t like Lindy, and her disdain was entirely justified.

If anything, I was a little concerned as to whether the role rode the ‘Sassy Black Woman’ trope too hard. I’m not American, and I’m not in the US, so I know the trope mostly second-hand.

This worry aside, and acknowledging that its still a tiny thing in the larger scheme, a transgender actor getting to play a character who’s trans-ness (or otherwise) is irrelevant is a good thing. At least, I think it is.

Bobby Cannavale was on the train in S1E1 right before we first see Mr. Robot I believe. He didn't look like his Irving character. Any thoughts about this? Could mean nothing. Sorry if this has been discussed already.
