Playing Aaron on AMC‘s The Walking Dead is hardly Ross Marquand‘s only talent. In fact, the actor was better known for another hobby prior to landing the gig within the zombie apocalypse.

Marquand is an impressive impressionist when his The Walking Dead off-season time allows for it. Thanks to Esquire, we have another lengthy video of the actor pulling off a number of impressions in a segment called, “Casting Remix.”

Casting Remix sees Marquand taking on iconic characters roles from well-known movies but performing them in the vein of a very different, well-known actor. For example, Jason Statham’s James Bond is quick but accurate, Brad Pitt’s take on the The Shining is a little less terrifying, and Justin Timberlake sort of turn Pulp Fiction into a comedy. Thanks to Marquand, we can appreciate the original casting of these roles and see the humor in the other takes.

Shortly after landing the role of Aaron on The Walking Dead, Marquand earned a series on PopTV under the title of Impress Me. In it, he and Jim Meskimen played two professional impersonators hired to do various jobs and say things the person they were impersonating would not actually say. The series only aired for one season as Marquand’s gig with The Walking Dead began to take up his time.
Marquand joined The Walking Dead in its fifth season, where he was introduced as the Alexandria recruiter who lead Rick’s group to the Safe-Zone.
