* StarMakingRole: Borat. However prior to that he was known for Film/TalladegaNightsTheBalladOfRickyBobby to American audiences after breaking out on tv to U.K. audiences with Series/DaAliGShow. His role as King Julien in WesternAnimation/{{Madagascar}} helped the movie get two sequels.
* TallDarkAndSnarky: Well, "snarky" in the "[[StealthParody saying ridiculous things]] [[PoesLaw and getting people to take them completely seriously]]" sense. Cohen stands an impressive 6'3, and frequently makes use of his substantial height to make his already cartoonish characters seem that much more larger-than-life, pun not intended.
