David Dalmation

[quote] David Dastmalchian, know for his acting roles in The Dark Knight and Ant-Man, tells the story of his drug addiction to a crowd of people during a recovery rally at the Kansas Statehouse in Topeka, Kan.

"Know[n] for"?

According to imdb, he played the role in "The Dark Knight" of "Joker's Thug."

We're going to have to agree to disagree on “very handsome man.”

Very impressive and rare to meet a recovered heroin addict. Bravo.

R4 will believe anything.

He was in Oppenheimer. It's pretty impressive to go from homeless drug addict to starring in Christopher Nolan films.

I had only seen him in "Prisoners" prior to watching "Late Night with the Devil". His character in "Prisoners" was creepy as fuck and he was scary in it. He has an unusual look about him that lends itself well toward offbeat or creepy characters, but I also found him strangely sexy in "Late Night with the Devil". Perhaps the charismatic energy was part of it. I saw it in the theater and often found my eyes wandering to his beefy thighs and ass in those khakis. Very hot body.

He’s not THAT handsome.

The demon in Late Night With the Devil kept referring to him as very handsome. That's a bit conceited.

Considering that David was also a producer.

I wouldn't say very.

Agreed, OP. I've always thought he's cute.

"starring in"???

Oh, [italic]hon[/italic]...

How does one pronounce his last name

I wonder if he ever traded sex for drugs?

I wouldn't say handsome. Interesting looks that can at times be attractive. He looks a bit like a young Harry Dean Stanton by way of John Cusack. I don't know if he ever worked with David Lynch but I can easily imagine him in any of Lynch's work.

He did work with David Lynch, on the Twin Peaks revival.

And yeah, he’s pretty sexy.

It's pronounced DUST-mal-chən. His father is Iranian.

Now that's an Armenian last name.

He should have changed his last name.

Bump

He’s Iranian.

He should do a buddy film with Patrick Fischler, directed by David Lynch.

He was really good as MacGyvers arch enemy in the reboot.

His star is really rising.

He reminds me a bit of Christopher Lee.

I'm getting young Alfred Molina.

....

He would be fantastic as the man in black in Mike Flanagan 's Dark Tower.

The movie was just awful

If I had that career - or that last name - I'd probably be on the junk, too.

Too bad he wasn't cast as Randall Flagg in The Stand.

bump

I want to hear about his experiences as a prostitution whore.

This is ...different.

bump

He and his wife make a cute couple

I could have sworn he was gay.

His wife is gorgeous. They have two small children so she must be several years younger than David.

armenian?

Iranian

He had a strict religious upbringing in KC.

Armenian and Iranian are by no means mutually exclusive. Turkey, Iran, Iraq, Georgia, etc. all have significant Armenian populations, many (but by no means all) of whom are Christians.

"very handsome man"

He's not even slightly nice looking. He looks like a warmed over corpse.

Check your eyesight. He's very sexy and charismatic.

David and wife.

Good looking couple.

He looks like he could be the much-less attractive dad of Paul W. Downs (Hacks tv show)

He looks so stupid hanging on to her (belly) like that, though.

I always get him mixed up with Arnold Stang.

His last name sounds Armenian.

Fraus love that shit.

bump

With his rescue cat Bubblegum. He's wearing a suit to match David's in Suicide Squad.

Dollface!🥰

He's hot in that pic with his cat.

Who's had him?

I could see him as a Bond villian. There's a darkness to him.

....

David at the Nosferatu premiere. Notice the finger nails.

Hmmm...

Very odd looking. Reminds me of Patrick Fischler, who played Jimmy Barrett on Mad Men. He’s very much a “oh that guy” actor.

He played The Boston Strangler in a series with Keira Knightley. Perfect casting lookswise.

With Bryan Fuller

I hope he gets a big role in Nolan's Odyssey.

bump

Dollface!

His tribute to David Lynch.

[quote]He’s not THAT handsome.

As a matter of undisputed fact, he's not handsome at all. OP needs an optometrist - stat !

Not everyone likes AWG.

How do people even get addicted to heroin. Do they somehow miss all the information about how dangerously addictive it is? Do they think addiction is going to feel good and be glamorous?

I’m genuinely curious.

Ive had my share of very wild times and parties to excess but there has always been a very clear line where I recognized the danger of creating a problem bigger than the problems I was partying to escape from and I was always able to hold that line.

I’m otherwise not a particular paragon of strong willpower. It puzzles me how many otherwise intelligent people find themselves in that pickle

Thrill seeking and a self destructive urge. David attempted suicide several times,

In his twink days.

....

David as The Joker? I sense he has a real dark side.

He seems to be working constantly.

He should do a Walton Goggins style photo shoot.

I just watched "Late Night With The Devil," and thought he was wonderful in that movie!

However, the ending was just a big NO for me.

I didn't understand it at all. It was the weakest part of the movie.
