Dr.Armstrong is a trusting doctor who is often suspected by the others to be the murderer. Armstrong is convinced by Wargrave (the killer) to create a plan to catch the killer that leads to his own death. The actor that will play him is Martin Freeman. Freeman is a very popular actor who has appeared in The Hobbit film series and the BBC television series Sherlock. Armstrong is a timid man who does not want any problems. Freeman would act this character perfectly seeing as his character as Watson in Sherlock is quite like Armstrong to begin with. He is a likeable personality who will be a welcome addition to the already stellar cast. That is why Martin Freeman is Dr.Armstrong.

Lombard is a well-built man due to his work in the army, and does not consider the women on the island to be the killer, which proves to be his downfall when Vera Claythorne kills him. The actor that will play him is Christian Bale. Bale is one of the most popular actors in the past couple decades, starring in The Dark Knight trilogy and movies like American Psycho. He has also starred alongside Michael Caine in many films, so their chemistry will be evident in the movie. Bale is committed to changing his body based on his performance, and in this case, his character stays around until the very end so his built body must be evident. Lombard is charming yet authoritative, building relationships with all the characters, especially Vera Claythorne. That is why Christian Bale is Philip

    Matt Smith’s performance in this episode sowed mastery of both verbal and nonverbal communication when he is playing The Doctor. He is a very direct, polychromic, and denotative individual through this whole episode. He weaves in nonverbal reinforcements from kinesics, proxemics, paralanguage, and to haptics. By doing these things he is not only putting his own twist on the doctor, but also making his acting realistic to bring the watcher into the story of Doctor Who.

    King’s decision to pick Gerard Joseph to play the character of Thomas Hodge was excellent. The character of Thomas Hodge called for someone who can successfully express the dilemma between feeling a sense of responsibility towards his community and fulfilling his professional obligations. I felt that by picking Gerard Joseph, King was successfully able to fulfill this breakdown. Joseph’s light brown complexion symbolized the struggle of his character to fit into both White and African American cultures. Joseph’s lean physique also added credibility to his role because it indeed made him look like someone who originated from a wealthy suburban family.

    It is known that the “perfect guy” persona should not be trusted, no matter how he may be characterized. Agatha Christie’s novel And Then There Were None perfectly illustrates this through the character Phillip Lombard. Phillip Lombard, portrayed as the hero, the man who will save everyone and kill the murderer, is one of the worst on the island. Because Wargrave’s goal was to kill those who were the least guilty first, he exposes and deals with Phillip in the best way possible. The guilt, as a result of his crime, begins to tear him apart. The crime that Phillip commits and the way he dies are definitely in association with each other.

    Dylan O’Brien plays both the confused and the increasingly-confident hero extremely well, where his understated performance contains exactly the right amount of both bravado and pretense at knowing how to deal with the situation he’s in. Will Poulter, hot off last year’s BAFTA Rising Star Award, plays fellow trapped teenager Gally with a bullish confidence, his antagonistic intentions contradicted by his good intentions. While he may serve as the antithesis to O’Brien’s protagonist, his performance is both sympathetic and easy to relate to. Thomas Brodie-Sangster (He’s 24! 24!) plays second-in-command Newt with subtle kindness, acted out well enough but mainly used for expositional purposes.

    This movie has many well-known actors, besides Paltrow and Damon, including Marion Cotillard, Laurence Fishburne, Jude Law and Kate Winslet Who play Dr. Leonora Orantes, Dr. Ellis Cheever, Alan Krumwiede, and Dr. Erin Mears, respectively. There are many scenes where these actors show their wonderful acting such as when Cheever sees the janitor and offers to help his little boy who has ADHD. He shows that he really is a good man on more than one occasion such as when he really does go and help the little boy by giving up his own cure. He is also shown to be a nice and caring man when he calls Dr. Orantes and ask how SHE is doing, not how her work is going but how she herself is holding up. Orantes shows that she is a good woman when her dying act is trying to give a man her jacket because he is cold. Mears is shown to be a kind heart when she runs back to tell the village that their “cure” was a placebo. Of all of the main cast, the only one that doesn’t seem to have a kind heart is Krumwiede. He is shown to be a manipulated and deceiving man when he decides to risk the life of his fans by lying to them to try and gain money and
