From Eminem to Alana Haim, these 10 performers have very few acting credits but turn in award-worthy performances, according to Reddit.
Redditors recently got together on r/movies, the largest film subreddit, to discuss the best acting performances by people who were not primarily known for acting. They came up with a ton of solid picks, from athletes to musicians, comedians to wrestlers.
9 Tom Waits — 'Seven Psychopaths' Seven Psychopaths is Martin McDonagh's dark comedy about a struggling screenwriter in Los Angeles who unwittingly becomes embroiled in a bizarre world of crime and chaos. Musician Tom Waits is no stranger to the world of acting, having starred in a variety of independent leading and supporting roles. Here, he has a supporting role as Zachariah Rigby, a man who used to be part of a serial killing duo who is seeking out his former partner.

"Cher is amazing in everything. Moonstruck is great," said Redditor lala. "Dwight Yoakum was fantastic in Sling Blade," said Redditor stoned_Belarusski. "Everything about the giant meltdown scene is so real and traumatic.

4 Kevin Garnett — 'Uncut Gems' One of the highlights of the fast-paced, white-knuckle Uncut Gems is basketball legend Kevin Garnett's performance as himself. He portrays himself as materialistic and strong-willed, insisting on keeping a rare black opal in his possession despite Howard's protestations.
2 Bill Burr — 'Breaking Bad' Bill Burr is one of the current era's reigning comedians, but he's also terrific in several acting roles. Chief among them is his turn in Breaking Bad as Patrick Kuby, a resourceful member of Saul Goodman's team of fixers and enforcers. Burr nails Kuby's nonchalance toward his criminal activities, and he has several hilarious interactions with the other characters, particularly Huell .
