John Goodman
Performance: John Chambers in Argo
Chambers created the makeup for Planet of the Apes, designed Spock’s ears and had a sideline working for the CIA. “He’s a man who serves his country,” Goodman says. “He has a double life, a secret life, and at the same time, he disguises people for a living.”
