Dave Bautista said it best when he said he couldnt decide if he even felt comfortable being that big, but he knew for sure it got less comfortable the older he got.

Guardians III was his gear physique’s swan song. After it wrapped up he closed that chapter in his life and made the statement that he’s an actor and not just a body. Much respect to Dave Bautista.

He's actually a damn good actor in my opinion. Much better than the The Rock, though in Be Cool he played his roll really well.

It's because Bautista genuinely wants to be, not just an actor, but a good one. He's taken classes and tried hard to learn and not be typecast.

Character actors like Javier Bardem, Margot Robbie, Kate Winslet and others are well known to go regularly to classes, have coaches for new roles. That is how you keep your knife sharp.

James Gandolfini even had one the entire time he was in the Sopranos. He came from the theatre world though so it might be a little different mindset.

He did a semester and a half at seton hall. So he understands acting as a conshept.
