Born anywhere other than Liechtenstein, Austria, Czechoslovakia, Svalbard, Jan Mayen or Belarussian SSR?

Hopefully this narrows it down to the Baltic States at a longitude further north than Copenhagen.
The problem is if there are any extremely famous actors from the Baltic States, they would have come up with a Google search for Estonian/Latvian/Lithuanian actors.

I'm going to ask another question: was this person born in a location on this list? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dependent_territory

Conditional guess if the answer to both my and JECE's questions are "yes": Henry Cavill
That would be the 20th question, I think. You sure?
I'll make the question conditional on your question's answer being "yes", since I don't think there are any famous actors born in Svalbard or Jan Mayen.

So, if the answer to JECE is "yes": born in a dependent territory as per Wikipedia?
If the answer to both my and JECE's questions are yes: Henry Cavill

I think the birthplace is the single most significant thing we can narrow down, since any of the tiny locations this actor could have been born can't have produced that many famous actors. I also think there's a greater than 50% chance that I'm right about Henry Cavill.

You are, in fact, right about Henry Cavill!
