Zachary Quinto
Zachary Quinto is partly responsible for American Horror Story being a hit. In season 1 (Murder House) he played one of the former house owners Chad Warwick. Warwick went from being a husband trying to make his marriage work to a killer who’d do anything for a baby. In season 2 (Asylum) he played a psychiatrist named Dr. Oliver Thredson, who was actually a serial killer with abandonment issues. The way Quinto switched between the two personalities in Asylum was flawless.
Without these two performances, this writer doesn’t believe that AHS would be as revered as it is.
Comic book character: Prince Robot IV
Saga may be the best comic book series of all time. The characters, their development, the art, and so much more are perfection personified. Among the greatness of this comic is a character named Prince Robot IV – someone who remained an arrogant being even after his character changed.
Quinto has the right voice to play a character like this. It was evident as he’s voicing Robot in Invincible. There’s a lot of similarities between the two characters. Both of them are willing to do horrible things for the people they care about. They’ll also attempt to justify it by saying they did it out of love. Out of everyone on this list, this is the one that feels like it could (and should) happen.
American Horror Story season 11 is currently airing on FX.
