Which actor or actress fooled you into thinking they are American?

[PurpleGaga27 40]

I was browsing for a certain actor in NBC's Believe and came across to a surprised Wiki info for Delroy Lindo and I can't believe he's British... with the confusion of thinking how is he really speaking 100% American accent. But this isn't the first time I came across to seeing actors/actresses with very good American accents even though they are not Americans (Canadians excluded).

 

Here a partial list of the following people that I know of definitely fooled me with their accent:

 

British:

• Hugh Laurie (probably the best non-accented actor ever heard; he should play Gordon Freeman in a Half-Life movie )
• Christian Bale
• Colin Farrell
• Andrew Garfield
• Stephen Moyer
• David Morrissey
• Idris Elba
• Delroy Lindo
• Elizabeth Taylor
• Lena Headey
• .... and many more I cannot identify.

Australian:

• Hugh Jackman
• Hugo Weaving
• Sam Worthington
• Guy Pearce
• Naomi Watts
• Nicole Kidman
• Heath Ledger
• Chris Hemsworth
• Liam Hemsworth
• Eric Bana
• Simon Baker
• Yvonne Strahovski
• Poppy Montgomery
• Anna Torv
• John Noble

New Zealand:

• Russell Crowe
• Sam Neill
• Karl Urban
• Lucy Lawless
• Anna Paquin

South African:

• Charlize Theron

New Zealand (strange after all this time nobody called them as kiwis ) :

 

I don't understand what you mean but for the record, we are called New Zealanders, The Kiwi is a native bird of New Zealand. So we are not a flightless bird.

Kiwi is a slang term for New Zealand natives. You'd think that would be common knowledge.

.... Bro.

Don't we wonder about that on every one of his topics?

 

Still, it keeps the place alive.
