Best movie performance by a musician

Jared Leto > Johnny Depp
 
Lady Gaga, A Star is Born.

I thought Jared Leto was a cult leader?
 
Johnny Depp, various roles

Johnny Depp is an actor that parades around as a musician. Then you have to include people like Jeff Bridges.


For a topic like this I think it is better to focus instead of musicians first who got into acting later.

Sorry, son, but he was a musician first, then got into acting. He never made it big as a musician, but that goes for a lot of musicians. He moved to LA 4 years before his first acting role looking for a record deal.
 
Another would be Billy Bob Thornton. Musician first, actor second.
 
body of work. I like Tim McGraw.
Plays different characters & surprisingly does it well.
 
Tom Waits is the answer. Better musician. Better actor.

I lurve me some Tom Waits, I think Old Shoes is one of the greatest songs of all-time.

But I think one of his coolest moments is as the voice of Tommy, in Primus' Tommy The Cat.

He’s an under appreciated national treasure.

Small Change is dark, but one of my top ten albums of all time.f
