What’s your favorite comic character played by a normally dramatic or action actor?

Pre-Airplane Leslie Nielsen was almost totally a dramatic actor.
However, in the classic MASH episode "The Ringbanger" he plays a comic role.
There are several moments where you can the comedy star Nielsen yet to come -- especially in the hilarious scene where Frank tries to examine him:

One of the literal GOATs
For the sake of comedy—perhaps it’s best if you haven't contracted AIDS from an African prostitute
Well how does he get away with it?
We're closed!
I was at the doctor. I've got AIDS.
Not in the clip, but the part before it:
quote:
Liam: I'm always making lists... in fact that's probably why Steven Spielberg cast me as Oskar Schindler in Schindler's List. I said "Steven, I make lists all the time", and he said "that's exactly what I'm looking for."
*Ricky, Stephen, and Warwick start laughing*
Liam: What? What's funny?
Ricky: ...sorry, I thought you were joking about getting the part of Oskar Schindler because you make lists.
Liam: No. As an actor, you need stuff to draw on. And I drew on that.

People keep bringing up Clooney but he's a regular comic actor and has been basically his entire career.

Will always be one of the funniest things ever.
"We're closed."
"I've got AIDS"
"Yeah, I thought you might..."
I'll go with DeNiro in Meet the Parents. It's underrated how funny he was in that movie.
