Kathryn Hunter (Aikaterini Hadjipateras), the real VIP in 'Poor Things' (2023). She stole the show in The Tragedy of Macbeth (2021). She's a terribly passive aggressive mother in the Star Wars series 'Andor.'
Her voice swims in the same waters as Shohreh Aghdashloo. It's a voice that's distantly related to Tom Waits. Maybe a second or third cousin. Read an interview with her. She's a delight. Always happy to see her.

But more actors succeed as Lear than not and, rather than itemise them, I have picked out those who have enriched our understanding of the play: acting, at best, is a form of practical criticism and teaches you more than the textbooks ever could. The stock image of Lear when I started going to the theatre was of some Blakeian Ancient of Days tottering around a Stonehenge-like set but that was forever banished by Paul Scofield’s performance in Peter Brook’s 1962 production. For a start Scofield was only 40 when he played Lear: roughly the same age as Richard Burbage in the first known performance in 1606.
More importantly, Scofield gave us a testy crew-cut autocrat who never demanded our sympathy even if he ultimately gained it. It was Brook’s idea to present the play with a moral neutrality so that Goneril and Regan reasonably objected to the presence of Lear’s obstreperous knights. But it was Scofield, with that voice that could cut through metal, who showed us that Lear was driven by a desire to punish his daughters: “I shall go mad!”, as Tynan noted, became a threat rather than a pathetic prediction.
