By "roles" I mean playing a different character, and in a different piece of media; someone playing one character across a franchise only counts as one thing for the purposes of this poll, as does playing multiple characters in one franchise/piece of media
Below are some of this actor's roles. Please only check after voting!
Marvel Cinematic Universe as John Walker / U.S. Agent
Overlord as Lewis Ford
Monarch: Legacy of Monsters as Lee Shaw
Under the Banner of Heaven as Dan Lafferty
Russell has a connection to several other actors; he is the son of actors Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn, the half-brother of actors Kate and Oliver Hudson, the grandson of actor Bing Russell, and is currently married to actor Meredith Hagner.

From Boss to Boyfriend, Chapter Seven
“Get a Load of Lafferty” (Avery POV) Start | Previous | Next
“So,” John broke the stunned silence, “I suppose you were a bit too busy to notice my email.” The slender, silver-haired man just smirked as Mike stammered unintelligibly and I bent down to pull up my briefs and trousers, feeling the warm cum dripping from my ass soak into the fabric.
John raised a halting hand and said, “Calm down, Mike. Can’t say I blame you for punching a hot ticket like Avery Appelbaum, and my lips will be sealed, as long as his aren’t.” He unzipped his fly and fished out eight inches of cock as pristine as the man himself, unblemished shaft rigid as steel and an engorged mushroom head glistening with potent precum at its end.
“Fuck,” Mike and I muttered in unison, but our tones diverged. My mouth watered at the sight of the handsome man’s married meat, but Mike scowled and possessively gripped me by the shoulder. He stepped between us and said, “Come on, John, he’s not a toy I can let you play with. He’s my… uhh…”
“Well,” John frowned and sucked at his teeth as he propped his hands on his hips, “that’s a bit of a sticky wicket, isn’t it? Busting a nut in the hot boy down the hall is one thing, but being romantically involved with a subordinate is risky business these days.”
“You know it’s not like that,” Mike protested.
“I could be convinced,” John reminded him, craning his head to meet my eyes. “How about it, son? I bet you wouldn’t mind one bit.” His combination of looks and charms was almost intoxicating given my taste in men, and my silence was deafening.
Mike turned to look at me, crestfallen, as he loosened his grip. “You don’t mind?” He asked, almost sounding hopeful that I’d protest.
“What choice do we have?” I reasoned, trying to stifle my heightening anticipation. “It’s just a blowjob, after all…”
“There’s a good boy,” John said as he tapped his Oxford shoe impatiently, “get on your knees before I change my mind. That ass did look rather fuckable…”
Mike’s face reddened with a mix of rage and shame as he let me pass and watched me sink to the floor at the silver fox’s feet. I could feel his eyes burning the back of my head as I looked up at a grinning John and leaned forward to plant my lips over the shining tip of his swollen rod.
“Aww fuck,” he sighed, sliding his fingers through my hair, “that mouth is an absolute marvel, son.” Goaded onward, I let my mouth open wide around his mushroom head and tightened my lips over his shaft as they dragged down its prodigious length. As soon as my face was buried in his soft trousers, John boasted, “You know, I can’t wait until the next time I run into your father, knowing I’ll have busted a nut down his son’s throat.”
I winced a bit. The Laffertys did tend to run in the same circles as my own family, despite the distance between their New England origins and our own on the West Coast. Still, I was glad I’d buttoned up my pants because the sordid notion was embarrassingly exciting to me.
“Jesus, John,” Mike exclaimed. “Don’t be an asshole.”
“Hey, you had your fun and now I get to have mine. Besides, it looks like you’re almost ready for an encore just watching your golden boy toy polish my knob.” I angled my head as much as I could with John’s hips pumping his cock between my lips, and he wasn’t lying. Mike’s wrinkled trousers were drawn taut around his revitalized cock. “He’s quite the insatiable little cocksucker too. Perhaps we’ll have to do this again sometime.” John teasingly winked down at me.
“Just get this over with and bust your nut, dude.”
John chuckled, “You’re eager for me to feed your boy a nice, hot load of Lafferty jizz, huh?”
“I’m eager to be done watching my boyfriend suck another man’s cock.”
“Oh, ho, ho!” John exclaimed. “So he is your boyfriend.” I blushed as he pushed my head back until just his tip was between my lips to look up at him. “You hear that, Avery?” He taunted, shivering with pleasure at my mouth sucked at his tip. He looked back toward Mike with a grin and said, “Your boyfriend certainly seems to love sucking another man’s cock.”
Mike let out an animal growl, so feral it momentarily pierced even Lafferty’s interminable confidence. But John managed a diplomatic smile as he said, “Come on, Mike. We’re not fucking neanderthals. There’s nothing to be so jealous about. Hell, if you can truthfully tell me you’re not turned on by the sight of this hot little queer sucking my cock, I’ll zip up and leave you be right now.”
I hoped Mike couldn’t tell how I sucked that much harder at the prospect of being denied John’s load, but there was no doubt the man himself noticed as he rolled his eyes back and let out a little sigh. Mike was quiet for a long moment before he finally said, “Sure, it’s hot in a certain way.”
“There’s a good sport,” John encouraged. “Come on, I only got a glimpse of that big dick of yours. No sense just standing there…”
Behind me, I heard the telltale sound of a zipper lowering before the older man above me grinned and exclaimed, “I’m not one to be easily impressed, but damn if that isn’t a marvelous cock. Come on and let your boy see how hard he’s making you.”
Mike’s heavy footfalls came closer until I felt the warmth of his body right behind me and he pressed his still-wet meat against the side of my face, as rigid as ever. His voice was husky when he asked, “You like sucking that cock, Avery?”
With a nod and a moan, I buried my lips down over the base of John’s shaft and made him groan with sudden pleasure. Mike’s hand joined John’s on my head and urged me on as he stroked his fat dick against my ear and dripped in my hair.
“Fuck yeah,” John rasped. “He’s really going for it now. Keep urging him on.”
Mike’s hand gripped me hard as his crotch pressed against me, jamming me back and forth along John’s big dick as he growled, “That’s it, bitch. Choke on that fat cock like the little queer you are. Make him bust a big nut down your whore throat.”
I trembled with pleasure on my knees, gagging on a gushing manhood, between the two suited men as they grunted and groaned above me. I could feel John swelling as he leaned back against the door and leaned his head back, but hardly realized what was happening when Mike circled to stand behind him and squeezed his cock tight right below the knob of his head.
Mike spurted huge globs, of the same cum still dripping from my ass, all over my face and into my hair just as John’s hands clenched my ears and buried his member down my throat to shoot two thick ropes straight into my esophagus. He loosened his grip just enough for me to pull back and let that spewing cock fill my mouth while I struggled to swallow. Inside and out, I was sprayed down by my boss and his own boss with the whole office on just the other side of the door behind them.
And still, after it all, the thing that had made my heart race quickest that day was the moment Mike called me his boyfriend.
Story is ongoing on my pay-what-you-want Patreon and coming over here as I make progress. My ebook of Tumblr stories that were lost in the purge is available for patrons as well as exclusive shorter stuff that I’m working on expanding upon in addition to more on Tumblr.

I was rewatching that Jenna Fischer interview where she was talking about her chemistry with John Krasinski and it reminded me of an excerpt from James Lafferty's interview on the Drama Queens podcast. Chemistry is viewed as such an enigmatic thing but I think this is such a good description of when two people just have this almost physiological chemistry. A real/genuine chemistry. These are the couples where the chemistry is undying. You will see John and Jenna 20 years from now off or onscreen and they will still have crazy good chemistry... same with James and Joy. I mean you kinda already see it with them. Whenever those sets of couples or other TV couples like them get together the chemistry is still fire years after their shows ended!

In ‘ Operation Demetrius’ (the British Army name for the internment arrest operation) in the early hours of 9 August 1971, soldiers and police men smashed into homes and arrested 342 men across the north. Their intelligence proved faulty. The operation didn’t significantly damage the IRA. Sixteen men were arrested in Derry, not all of them republicans.
Rioting erupted across Free Derry, and barricades again surrounded the area. A British soldier was shot dead by the IRA while on sentry duty at the British Army base in Bligh’s Lane, and Hugh Herron (31) was shot dead by a soldier in Henrietta Street.
Anger increased with news that a number of those arrested – “The Hooded Men” – had been tortured. On 18 August came the British Army response to reborn Free Derry. Over 1,300 troops, with helicopters and armoured cars, began dismantling barricades. PIRA Volunteer Eamonn Lafferty (19) was killed in a gun battle during this operation. Barricades were replaced as quickly as they were dismantled.
John Hume and two other SDLP leaders were arrested during a protest against the British incursions. Annette McGavigan (14) was shot dead by the British Army on 6 September, the day the SDLP three appeared in court.
In early September, the British Army embarked on large scale incursions into Free Derry. Gary Gormley (3) was crushed to death in his pram by an armoured car on 9 September. His death is officially recorded as a traffic accident. On 14 September, William McGreanery (41) was shot dead by British soldiers stationed in the army observation post in Bligh’s Lane. On 6 November, mother-of-six Kathleen Thompson (47) was shot dead by a British soldier as she stood in her own back garden in Rathlin Drive, Creggan. By the end of 1971 seven British soldiers had been killed in Free Derry. One IRA volunteer had been killed in action. British soldiers had killed eight civilians.

have you read/watched Under the Banner of Heaven? curious for your thoughts on it! If you already posted about it in the past pls feel free to link me
Thank you for the question!!! I have in fact both read and watched Under the Banner of Heaven. It was actually the first Mormon-history book I read way back in spring of 2021. I had just watched a Hulu documentary about FLDS and I wanted to read more about modern-day Mormon fundamentalists so I checked it out from the library and was hooked! I wanted to find out more about the origins and history of Mormonism, having had my interest piqued by the book, and the rest is history. I haven't reread the book since and I definitely know way more about both historical and modern Mormonism now, so it would be interesting to reread and see if it holds up. (One quibble: after reading about the 1988 Singer/Swapp siege more recently, I don't know why Krakauer didn't include a discussion of this event in UTBOH. It would have been a natural fit with his discussion of Mormon fundamentalist violence.)
I saw the show, on the other hand, when it came out and I knew way more about Mormon history. I thought it was fantastic. Very strong acting, writing, directing, deeply compelling, etc. I think the addition of Andrew Garfield's and Gil Birmingham's characters and the storyline about Jeb's faith deconstruction and Taba's Native American perspective really added a lot of depth. I also liked the way that their stories and the story of the investigation were woven together with both the recent history of the Lafferty family and the 19th century history of the church.
I would say that my primary issue with the show is that Allen Lafferty is written much more sympathetically than I find the real-life Allen, who was aware that his brothers had made death threats against his wife to a much greater extent than is portrayed in the show and did absolutely nothing about it. I think Allen bears a greater degree of responsibility for Brenda and Erica's deaths than the show would lead you to believe, and I know that Brenda's parents and siblings feel/felt that way, while the show depicts him going to stay with them in the final episode. (Also, while I don't know if Allen's religious struggles as depicted in the show are inaccurate to what he was going through at the time, he and his current wife are very much orthodox LDS, to the point where his wife has a Youtube channel with the two of them giving testimony, which I feel like doesn't really reflect well on him given like. everything.)
Edit: oh, and one issue I have with the historical flashbacks is that it kind of lampshades the conspiracy theory about John Taylor being in on Joseph Smith's murder which I think was kind of irresponsible of them because it's literally fringe nonsense and my behated.
