Nailed it. Jodie Comer's the best actress now. Watching Killing Eve, she does so many different accents. I was so impressed at her Midweastern accent in The Bikeriders. She's amazing.

Kelly Macdonald, the Scottish actress who nailed the south Texas accent in No country for old men.

I immediately thought of Jodie Comer when I saw the title of this thread. She is freaking incredible.

This has happened to a few actors off the top of my head, most notably Mel Gibson. You'd never know he was an Aussie today.



Probably because Mel Gibson was born in New York and didn't move to Australia until he was a teenager. He comes from a family of Irish-Americans.

The English/Irish/Australian guys doing American accents are all good examples.

I'm going to go a different route and say that Matt Damon (for a Northeastern Yankee) does a good Texas accent - he's played Carroll Shelby and been in a few Westerns.
