Your eminent credits know no bounds.
In fact, the following only grazes the surface of your many contributions: The Patriot 2000; Valkyrie; Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol; The Ghost and the Darkness; The Ghost Writer; Burke & Hare; Snowden; The Titan; Black Knight; Rush Hour; Separate Lies; Dr. Bird's Advice for Sad Poets; The Conspirator; Jackboots on White Hall; Michael Clayton; Recount; SAS: Red Notice; The Catcher Was a Spy; RocknRolla; First Among Equals; Cain of Fools; The Choice; Shakespeare in Love; The Happy Prince; This Beautiful Fantastic; The Night of the White Pants; Felony; Duplicity; Bone in the Throat; Ripley Under Ground; The Samaritan (aka Fury); Selma; 44 Inch Chest; Cassandra's Dream; Dedication; Dead in a Week or Your Money Back; Prince of Jutland (aka Royal Deceit/Thrones & Empires); Jenny's Wedding; Little Boy; Burden; Denial; Belle; The Last Kiss; Piccadilly Jim; Parker; Sylvia; Good People; A Good Woman; Stage Beauty; The Debt; Before You Go; Another Life; In the Bedroom; The Full Monty; If Only; Smilla's Sense of Snow; The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel; The Girl with a Pearl Earring; Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind; Wetherby; Paper Mask; Sense and Sensibility 2005; and The Importance of Being Earnest 2002.
In my humble estimation, one of your finest performances springs from The Exorcism of Emily Rose, where as Father Richard Moore, you spun conviction with sorrow, and above all, oodles of compassionate courage, to a degree that should have clinched you an Oscar nod.
However, your appearances as Carmine Falcone in Batman Begins, James Reid in The Green Hornet 2011 and Latham Cole in The Lone Ranger 2012, give you an unshakable spot in crusader cinema, ensuring that time and again, you'll reside in fandom's favorable eye.
Actors of your "supporting" caliber rarely get the credit they deserve, Mr. Wilkinson, but to those who absorbed the splendor of your work, you'll remain nothing less than top tier.
