Robert Daly (Black Mirror)
I wouldn’t say Jesse Plemons is type-casted to play emotionally stunted sociopathic characters, but he’s mastered those roles in a disturbingly realistic way. As digital captain and lethally awkward computer programmer Robert Daly on the Black Mirror episodes “USS Callister” and “USS Callister: Into Infinity” you forget he’s not a masochist. Don’t talk to me about Joe trapping people in cages that they usually talk their way out of when Daly is stealing people’s DNA from coffee cups to trap their digital clones with full consciousness in a video game that he controls. The man once erased someone’s face causing them to perpetually suffocate but not die for as long as he wanted. What’s a serial killer to a digital god?
