Danny also starred in the film Birth, opposite Nicole Kidman and directed by Jonathan Glazer. He also appears in Alejandro Inarritu's 21 Grams. He has collaborated several times with directors Mike Figgis and Bernard Rose and is the lead in John Sayles' Silver City, opposite Chris Cooper and Daryl Hannah.
