Steve Carell’s Best Roles

Steve Carell is one of Hollywood’s funniest human beings and he turns the BIG 6-0 today.  Whether he is playing the lead role, a supporting role, or a minor role… he crushes it each time with his quick wit and dad-like sense of humor.

I (Donnie) created what I think is a list of Steve Carell’s best roles in tv & film.

• 13. Maxwell Smart in Get Smart

  Steve Carell, Anne Hathaway, and The Rock all shined in the remake.

• 12. Trent in The Way, Way Back

  He played the worst person ever in this movie and you really hated his guts but he did a good job playing such a horrible person.

• 11. Frank Ginsburg in Little Miss Sunshine

  Great cast. Great movie!

• 10. Bobby Riggs in Battle of the Sexes

  Steve Carell & Emma Stone crushed their performances!

• 9. Gru in Despicable Me

  Wasn’t he casted perfectly for the voice of Gru?

   

• 8. John du Pont in Foxcatcher

  Steve plays a crazy wrestling coach and does it to perfection!

• 7. Mark Baum in The Big Short

  Fantastic movie!

• 6. Mitch Kessler in The Morning Show

  Great cast!

• 5. Evan Baxter in Bruce Almighty/Evan Almighty

  This scene was laugh out loud funny!

• 4. Cal Weaver in Crazy, Stupid, Love

  Ryan Gosling & Steve Carell were perfect in this movie together.

• 3. Brick Tamland in Anchorman

  This ensemble was legendary!!

• 2. Andy Stitzer in The 40-Year Old Virgin

  When you think of Steve Carell, this scene most likely comes to mind!

• 1. Michael Scott in The Office

  Is there a better role than Michael Scott?  I think this easily tops the list…
