Actors We Badly Want to Have More Lead Roles!

There will always be some instances we wanted some actors shine for more as we've only see them casted as a supporting role in cool shows despite having a great potential to lead a drama/movie. Their scene stealing performance gave us a lasting impression even after watching a certain show and then only to find out they still have a few - or worse, didn't have a main role they really deserve. 〒▽〒 

So put down below your pick and let us know who will be the most wanted actors to step the spotlight someday! Enjoy!
