Andy Serkis
Andy Serkis is a British actor best known for pioneering motion-capture performance in film.
His portrayals of Gollum in the Lord of the Rings trilogy and Caesar in the Planet of the Apes films established the technique as a legitimate acting discipline rather than mere special effects.
He has also directed films and played conventional roles: Serkis brought the same intensity to his live-action work.
