and awesome range
I meant to specify but didn’t. I meant range of roles/films he’s chosen. Im not enough of a theatre purist to comment on anyone’s actual acting range. But Pitt’s not Nicholson or Ryan Reynolds who play themselves in almost every flick, I’ll give him that much

Alec Guiness George Smiley > Gary Oldman George Smiley and the BBC series was better than the movie.
Humphrey Bogart: The Maltese Falcon, Cassablanca, The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, The Caine Mutiny, The African Queen, Key Largo. Charlton Heston: The Ten Commandments, Ben Hur, The Planet of the Apes, Touch of Evil, Midway, Khartoum (personal favorite).

Gary Oldman. Tremendous range and in some great movies.

Dennis Quaid from a sports perspective plus other great roles.

I'll throw Arnold & DeNiro in there.
Woody Harrelson got to do that scene with Alexandra Daddario so he gets an honorable mention

A few of my favorites that had starring roles in several movies.
Tommy Lee Jones - No Country For Old Men
Danny DeVito - My Cousin Vinny
Joe Pesci - GoodFellas
Lee Marvin - The Dirty Dozen (For The Old School Folks)

For breadth and variety, PSH.
For iconic roles, tough to beat Indiana Jones and Han Solo.
But I think I would take Pitt’s career overall. Or Hanks’s. Breadth, variety, depth, iconic roles, well loved.

Great choices. I’ll throw Michael Caine into the mix.

He wouldn’t be my 1st choice, but since nobody’s mentioned him, I’ll throw out McConaughey. Especially if we can include his True Detective role in there.

He's not a top 5-10 or anything, but he is batting way above his weight, James Cromwell.

I think Daniel Day Lewis would be a good suggestion. He has played very diverse roles, and has been excellent in them…
