Snake

A coiled, meticulous outsider with a razor-sharp edge.

Tim Roth is the quintessential snake — deeply introverted and intensely focused on his craft, he shuns the Hollywood spotlight and has carved an unconventional career on his own obsessive terms, from his raw early work with Mike Leigh to his mesmerizing Reservoir Dogs performance. He keeps a deliberately low profile and rarely courts celebrity, yet when he strikes — as the tortured Mr. Orange or the seething Thaddeus Ross — the precision is devastating. His reputation is that of a serious, private, meticulous artist who is consistently underestimated and just as consistently extraordinary.
