Look I know he's had plenty of amazing roles, but I still have this weird feeling of seeing an actor I've loved for a long time being seen and loved by so many people for the first time. Like saying "I'm glad he's finally getting his due" feels dismissive of his amazing work before now but that's still how I feel.
True, I had a similar reaction watching this video on Inside Games where one of the guys says that Walton Goggins is finally having a breakthrough (no timestamp because I'm lazy). Like dude... the man's been a household name for the better part of two decades now, even if he had a bit of a cool down for a few years recently. I mention The Shield in another comment, but he co-starred in what was at the time the most watched cable drama series (back when those words meant something) of all time. Walton Goggins is great and has been for years
He's from my hometown, he's always been amazing in anything he plays especially bad guys you like. I'm always glad he gets good work and it's long deserved he's got a leading role. I love his voice too, everyone where I grew up sounds just like him haha.
