Additionally, he starred in Terrence Malick's "The New World" (2005), "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" (2016), and Disney's "Saving Mr. Banks" (2013). His more recent credits include Yorgos Lanthimos' "The Killing of a Sacred Deer" (2017), Steve McQueen's "Widows" (2018), Sofia Coppola's "The Beguiled" (2017) and the Disney live action remake of "Dumbo" (2019).
