the character is small potatoes when it comes to fictional villainy, but Pierce Hawthorne played by Chevy Chase in the show "Community" immediately came to mind

A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.

Jared leto. Any role.
He’s decent when he gets his shit fucked up in Fight Club.
Not strictly fiction but the David Simon show We Own This City details the (criminal) actions of the Baltimore Police Gun Trace Task Force and their leader Wayne Jenkins played by Jon Bernthal who's main take away from playing the character was the he was basically decent and frequently expressed admiration for the character. He's also a vocal supporter of the IDF and a Blue Lives Matter activist.
unsurprising, though if 80% of my roles were cop related I would probably be blue lives too. for my own safety.

Character: Frank Underwood

Actor: Kevin Spacey
He really was just playing himself. Power is the only language they speak.

Character: Wonder Woman
-
Actor: Gal Godot
A cold, invulnerable, classic beauty whose persona screams "I'm better than everyone." Not sure whether I'm talking about Diana Prince or Gal Godot.
Finally...
As much as Rogan annoys me, I encountered his character on NewsRadio before I encountered him on the podcast. He was supposed to be a blunt object to contrast the others' as radio personalities, businesspeople, and reporters.
Apparently Marc Alaimo was a bit too much like Gul Dukat and consequently not well loved by the rest of the cast of DS9.
That really is too bad. Dukat is an excellent antagonist.
Amy Duncan from Good Luck Charlie is a diva drama queen played by Leigh-Allyn Baker who is a MAGA supporter that now does conservative kids shows
