Topher Grace is at his best when he plays villains, as revealed on Black Mirror

The Outline

"When he enters Topher Mode, Grace excels at capturing the true banality of evil," Drew Millard says of Grace's recent role playing a tech CEO on Black Mirror. "His characters are rarely overtly malicious, instead just selfish and clueless, impressed with their own mediocrity, and deluded enough to think that the fact that they suck at life shouldn’t stop them from living it to the fullest. His characters are all grown adults still driving the Range Rover their dad bought them in high school, willing to do anything to preserve what they view as a god-given right to be remarkably below-average yet still cruise comfortably through life."
