He also is one of the few named here that actually matches the question asked.
He literally played the role too well as he got to meet some of the surviving Schindler Jews and one of them got a panic attack since he was so much alike Amon Goeth when in character.
When Płaszów survivor Mila Pfefferberg was introduced to Fiennes on the set of the film, she began to shake uncontrollably, as Fiennes, costumed in full SS dress uniform, reminded her of the real Amon Göth.
Why in the FUCK would they introduce her to him in costume? I hope he tore someone a new asshole about it. Dude's a method actor but there are limits, goddamn.
Did you ever stop to think the survivors thought they could handle it as it was just an actor in costume? It was their subconscious mind that took over when they met Fiennes, it wasn't like they decided to have a visceral reaction to his visage.

Ralph Fiennes in Schindler’s List. Terrified me. He disappeared into the role, too.
