John Paval

Top international directors like to bring in John Paval to portray powerful men, working alongside top international talents. Most lately he played Thomas Moore, head of a global lobbying powerhouse, working with Pierre Niney and Laurent Stocker as his employees, in French director Frédéric Tellier's eco-thriller Goliath. Earlier, the legendary Greek director Costa Gavras cast him in the role of Paul Frost, the power broker from Goldman Sachs who ruthlessly sets in motion his associate Gabriel Byrne to engineer the takeover of a global bank led by the well know French actor Gad El Maleh in the financial thriller 'Le Capital' . Elsewhere, the iconoclastic director Leos Carax brought John in for a turn as a singing police detective bearing down on the suspect played by Adam Driver in the musical murder mystery Annette. And, John also appeared as the sympathetic Dr. Walsh, the personal physician to Jackie Kennedy (Natalie Portman) who comes to her side that fatal night of November 22, 196
