Daniel Duncan

Daniel Duncan’s filmography is a weird little rollercoaster—he’s the kind of actor who pops up in projects that are all over the map, genre-wise. So, The Prototype (2022)? That movie leans hard into sci-fi territory, with Duncan tangled up in this world where technology is basically running wild and humanity’s on the brink. People are trying to figure out what makes us human, and Duncan’s character is right in the thick of it, dealing with artificial intelligence that’s starting to look a little too real for comfort. There’s a bit of that “future gone wrong” flavor, with plenty of action and a whole lot of questions about whether we’re controlling the machines or if they’re controlling us. Swing over to I Spit on Your Grave (2010), and you’re in for a much grittier, darker ride. This one’s infamous for its brutal revenge plot. Duncan’s role here isn’t what you’d call warm and fuzzy—he’s mixed up in a violent story about survival and vengeance. The movie pulls zero punches, and it’s all about this woman who turns the tables on the people who wronged her, serving up payback that’s as raw and intense as it gets. Then, Peacemaker (1990) is a total left turn. Think sci-fi meets action, with Duncan dropped into a world of intergalactic chaos. Aliens, secret identities, the fate of Earth hanging in the balance—it’s all there. Duncan brings this hard-edged energy, whether he’s playing cop or criminal, and the movie just barrels forward with explosions and wild stunts. Not exactly Oscar bait, but it’s got a kind of cult-movie charm. Basically, wherever Duncan pops up, you’re never quite sure what you’re in for, but you know it won’t be boring.
