Movies with Robert Goodman

Veteran character actor Robert Goodman has brought his rugged, everyman charm to a diverse array of roles over the past two decades. Though he may not be a household name, Goodman's skilled, nuanced performances have made him a reliable and respected presence on both the big and small screens. Goodman first gained attention for his soulful turn in the 2021 drama "The Power," playing a world-weary father struggling to keep his family afloat. He followed that up with a scene-stealing supporting role in the quirky 2022 indie "True Things," showcasing his ability to find the humanity in even the most flawed characters. But Goodman has proved equally adept at anchoring larger-scale projects, bringing gravitas and command to films like the 2023 historical epic "Napoleon" and the 2025 holiday drama "Kevin Costner Presents: The First Christmas." What makes Goodman so compelling is his everyman quality – you believe him as the working-class stiff, the beleaguered patriarch, the gruff-but-kind authority figure. Yet he also has a spark of charisma that elevates even his smaller roles, like his memorable appearances in the 2023 horror film "Lord of Misrule" and the 2025 wilderness thriller "A Wild Life." With an impressive range and a magnetic screen presence, Robert Goodman continues to be one of the most reliable character actors working today.
