Movies with Alessandro Nivola

In a landscape crowded with cookie-cutter leading men, Alessandro Nivola stands out as a versatile character actor with a compelling on-screen presence. Rather than pursuing the easy path of generic blockbusters, Nivola has cultivated a filmography marked by adventurous indie projects and complex supporting roles that showcase his impressive range. From his captivating turn as a serial killer in the true crime drama Boston Strangler to his nuanced performance as a troubled architect in The Brutalist, Nivola demonstrates an ability to disappear into his characters, imbuing even minor parts with an intriguing depth.

With an enviable upcoming slate that includes the highly anticipated Kraven the Hunter, Nivola is poised to continue captivating audiences for years to come.
