He has nailed every single villain role they\u2019ve offered him in his incredibly rich career, from <em>Harry Potter<\/em>\u2019s Lucius Malfoy and<em> Peter Pan<\/em>\u2019s Captain Hook to <em>Star Trek<\/em>\u2019s Captain Lorca and more. Jason Isaacs is equally astounding when he\u2019s not on the dark side of the spectrum, too, with memorable roles as Ronald Quincy in Armageddon and as Captain Waggoner in Fury.<\/p>\n<p>Most people know Jason Isaacs as Lucius Malfoy in the\u00a0<strong>Harry Potter\u00a0<\/strong>movies, the father of Draco Malfoy. He portrayed the despicable, but somehow still charismatic wizard from the second movie in the franchise in 2002 until the very last one in 2011. Fun fact: last year, his movie son Tom \u2018Draco\u2019 Felton visited FACTS.<\/p>\n<p>But no matter what role he takes on, it\u2019s always memorable.\u00a0<strong>Star Trek<\/strong>\u00a0fans will see Captain Gabriel Lorca, the rather cold and secretive Starfleet officer. Others will recognise the British Colonel William Tavington, the ruthless antagonist in\u00a0<strong>The Patriot<\/strong>\u00a0who made life more than miserable for Americans and Mel Gibson. Or maybe you will be reminded of his intimidating portrayal of Captain Hook in 2003\u2019s version of\u00a0<strong>Peter Pan<\/strong>. Ranger Commander Captain Steele in\u00a0<strong>Black Hawk Down<\/strong>, Michael Caffee in\u00a0<strong>Brotherhood<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Armageddon, A Cure for Wellness, The Death of Stalin, Awake<\/strong>\u2026 And that\u2019s just a small selection.<\/p>\n<p>If Jason Isaacs\u2019\u00a0voice sounds familiar, then that\u2019s no surprise: the man has an impressive track record of voice acting work. He was Admiral Zhao in the phenomenal TV\u00a0series\u00a0<strong>Avatar: The Last Airbender<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0<strong>The Legend of Korra<\/strong>\u00a0and The Inquisitor \/ Sentinel in\u00a0<strong>Star Wars Rebels<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0<strong>Star Wars: Rebels Recon<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Isaacs also voiced Siddeley \/ Leland Turbo in\u00a0<strong>Cars 2,\u00a0<\/strong>Lex Luthor in the video game\u00a0<strong>Justice League: Gods and Monsters<\/strong>, Sinestro in\u00a0<strong>Green Lantern: Emerald Knights<\/strong>, Reza Zaydan in\u00a0<strong>Hitman<\/strong>\u00a0(2016), Dr. William Birkin in\u00a0<strong>Silent Hill 2\u00a0<\/strong>and much, much more!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Jason Isaacs will be the next guest in the FACTS line-up, on April 6-7, in Flanders Expo Ghent.
