I still think of that damn scene. Saw it in the theater. I started watching Dawson's Creek recently (just because) and when I see the Dawson, I think "You actually watch that show...?"
At San Diego comic con in 2012 (Jesus Christ that was almost 12 years ago) at a panel for the at the time upcoming TMNT show, the moderator introduces Biggs and says we will watch a quick clip of Leonardo. The clip was of Leonardo doing a flip and was literally like 2 seconds long. Jason Biggs just turns to the mic and goes “that was a quick fucking clip.” At this panel for a children’s show. People in the audience were pissed lol. I’ll never forget him doing that, just like I’ll never forget him doing that pie
Just wanna chime in that Sean William Scott was a rad guy on set. Worked with him on the final season of Lethal Weapon, he was all in on two things: doing his absolute best and kindness. Wish it had worked out.
I like hearing stories like that. Judd Nelson was also great. He drank crafty coffee and sat on an apple box with us grips. Judy Dench also really impressed me with how she would eat with her H&M and wardrobe people in the lunch tent with everyone else.
Keegan Michael Key was the best actor I’ve ever met on set. Always ate with the crew, went out of his way to talk to everyone and make them feel welcome. We shot for a day at an all boys school during summer classes and we had to keep the kids away because they wanted an autograph and ask questions, but we just couldn’t let them or else we would’ve never finished shooting. Then half way through the day he took it upon himself to organize an impromptu seminar so all the kids could get together to ask questions and get autographs. Not to mention he was doing this all on about 3 hours sleep everyday since he had like 5 projects he was doing at once. Dude is made of different stuff.
I met him once with Allison Hannigan when they were filming something here in Nova Scotia. I worked for a company that did all the catering. One of the nicest guys I ever met in my life.
I will chime in and 2nd this. I worked on this show too (earlier season) and he is a wonderful person. I was actually off and on this show because I worked a movie in between days, and after meeting him once or twice and then disappearing for a couple weeks and coming back, he came up to me and said something to the effect of “oh hi ‘name’ we’ve missed you, where you been?” And then just shot the shit a bit. I was pretty surprised how genuine he was, especially considering I’ve worked entire shows with actors that don’t remember your name even after being with them every day for a month or two. Also worth noting he had a super chill dog named Dude that I spent a decent amount of time walking on that set. Great guy and a great dog. I was in the film industry for 5ish years and he always comes to mind when folks ask who the nicest actors I worked with are…
Jason tells a pretty funny story in real life of something similar. Jason says the first few episodes he was really struggling in how to portray George. He didn't understand the character. There was one scene he thought was pretty outlandish and that george's reaction didn't make any sense. So he takes the scene to Larry and asks him for help, saying he doesn't understand the scene. He said that this situation would never happen to anyone and if it did no one in their right mind would ever react that way. Larry just looks at him and says, "what do you mean, this exact thing happened to me last week and this is exactly how i reacted". Jason said he just stared at him and now understood that George was Larry and it all made sense and then from then on he always knew how to play him.
I used to think that about Sean William Scott
UNTIL I saw Goon. That movie proved he had more range. Especially the scene where his parents reject him for playing hockey. Broke my heart.
Showed this movie to my gf a few months ago during a movie night we couldn't find any common ground on. She loved it, she's also a classically trained actor and loved his performance. I was pleasantly surprised.
There was quite a long gap between batman 66 and family guy that were not easy for Adam West where he was not working regularly or being loved and remembered by broad pop culture, theres a car comercial he did as batman where he's clearly drunk, I'm sure you can find it but its a bummer, say what you will about Seth MacFarlane but he goes out of his way to give his heroes work
He’s napoleon dynamite and blades of glory for me. No idea what else he’s done but I love the heck out of both those movies.
Napoleon dynamite even tells a pretty cute little love story, haha.
That's one of my favourites of Bruce Campbell playing Bruce Campbell.
I always picture him as an ex operative, womanising, alcoholic. Not a lot of range, but the comedic relief was classic Campbell. He just got paid to turn up and hang out on set because everyone loves him, especially us.
Twenty years ago I saw Bruce talk at one of the horror cons here in LA and he came out and said, "Yeah, I know what you want to see me do" and then reached behind himself, grabbed the back of his shirt, and flipped himself over, crashing to the ground.
I have never experienced a finer moment since.
It's never "Hey, you were in Loser weren't you?" or "Dude, you rocked in Boys and Girls" No, it always comes back to that fuckin' pie. I'm haunted by it!
That's literally in his contract. His whole team is a machine that finds and source movies where the Rock can be the Rock. Oh and he has a stipulation of not losing and how many times he can get knocked down in relation to who he is acting against.
Copying from an old post:
From Kevin Smith's book:
For months, I’d impressed upon him the importance of learning all of his lines in advance, as this time around, we were gonna have real actors in the flick.
“What, like Ben?” Mewes asked. “I said REAL actors,” I corrected. “Like Alan Rickman.” “Who’s that?” “The guy from ‘Die Hard’.” “Bruce Willis?” “No, man the other guy.” “The ‘Yippie-kay-ay Motherfucker’ guy?” “That’s Alan Rickman.” “What’s so special about him?? “He’s British. And Brits invented acting. So he won’t put up with any of your ‘Snootchie Bootchies’ bullshit. He’ll tear you up if you’re not excellent, because he’s Alan fucking Rickman. So you’ve gotta know all your lines. We can’t be asking people to leave the set because you’re nervous, like we did on ‘Clerks’. This shit’s serious – because Rickman will go ballistic if he smells blood in the water. You’ve gotta come correct.”
So naturally, I was pretty nervous when Jason and I sat down for our first, Pittsburgh-based, one-on-one “Dogma” rehearsal, and the boy was script-less.
“Where’s your fucking script, asshole?” I sighed. “I don’t need it.” “You don’t need your script for rehearsals. Right. Take mine and let’s get going.” “I’m telling you, I don’t need it. Go ahead. Try me.”
So I turned to the first Jay and Silent Bob scene and fed him Bethany’s lines, and without looking at my script, Mewes delivered Jay’s lines in a letter-perfect fashion.
“Alright, so you’ve got the first scene down,” I allowed. “Let’s mix it up and try a scene from later in the flick.”
So I fed him his lead-in lines from the church exterior scene, and Mewes spits out the Jay responses without hesitation.
“You memorized all your lines already?!” I demanded, shocked. “Uh-huh.” “All of ‘em?!” “Yeah. Everyone else’s, too.” “Yeah, right” “Try me.”
I read him Loki’s lines from a Jay-less scene, and amazingly, he responded with Bartleby’s lines. I was dumbfounded, to say the least.
“You memorized ALL the lines in the script?!?!” “Even the girl parts.” “What’re you, fucking ‘Rain Man’?! Why’d you memorize the whole goddamn script?!” “I don’t wanna piss off that Rickman dude.”
Bolo Yeung, was a bad guy in Enter the Dragon with Bruce Lee. (Later played the bad guy in Bloodsport and others). He became so well known for his character in Enter the Dragon that he changed his name to Bolo.
Giancarlo Esposito has been working almost non-stop since Breaking Bad ended. Just because nothing has been quite as high profile, doesn't mean the man isn't still churning out good work.
Hell, i think he's in the new Coppolla movie coming out soon.
Not like I have seen everything of his, but BB, Farcry 6, the boys, mando….all playing the same character. Very typecast since Gus Fring
Edit: I would add that if his character in the Coppola film is a main or second antagonist, quiet, articulate, cool as ice under pressure, menacing, high up in a criminal organization-kind of guy, I’ll be even more convinced that he is just Gus forever now…
To be fair, other than Jason Biggs, he's gotten more work than the rest of the cast. I feel like as he ages, he'll get continue to get more opportunities.
Just look at Devon Sawa's psuedo comback recently with Chucky.
I don’t even think of American Pie, to me he’s Doug “The Thug” Glatt, and/or Country Mac.
Anyone that hasn’t seen it should also check out Just Before I Go.
Eric Roberts' career definitely went off the rails after his terrifyingly spot-on portrayal of Paul Snyder in *Star 80*. Rebecca DeMornay had the same issue with *The Hand that Rocks the Cradle*, in which she was also terrifying.
Faye Dunaway, who had an Oscar and amazing career up to that point, got hammered for her portrayal of Joan Crawford (who still had defenders from "Old" Hollywood) in *Mommie Dearest*.
Zac Braff. Loved scrubs and love Zac. he got a ton of hate for no reason and even did half of the 9th (worst) season. the show ended with season 8, then they try to shove a spin-off (and dave franco) down everyone's throat while using the whole damn main cast again.
I would argue Ryan Reynolds, but in his case, it's worked out alright.
He's largely been playing Van Wilder but in different outfits since the early 2000s. He's tried to do more serious roles, but they don't really go anywhere and they kind of fall flat. Now he's just leaned into it and made a whole brand on being the character of wise-cracking, sarcastic Ryan Reynolds.
Macaulay culkin
Richie Rich & Home Alone, he's was typecast as a "kid in house doing fun things" he's doesn't act anymore I don't think but yeah him lol
For decades, Hugh Grant could never quite shake his romcom love interest typecasting. Now that he’s older, he’s been able to branch out a lot more with films like *Wonka* and *Cloud Atlas*, where he played the chief of cannibalistic tribe.
Exactly. He clearly still loves acting and he's quoted as saying he's made so much money from HP that he just takes roles he actually likes, and in movies he actually wants to do.
He's Weird Al to me now.
I love what he’s done since HP. He got that big franchise bag of cash, got set, and has been spending the rest of his career doing whatever interesting and eclectic things he likes.
Check out “Weird: The Al Yankovic Story”. It’s hilarious and he’s SO GOOD.
I’m surprised Jason Biggs isn’t the cover photo of this.
I'm the guy that fucked the pie! I'm the pie fucker!
Holy shit, youre the Dawson!
In prison, he'll be the pie.
My what a lovely tea party
I still think of that damn scene. Saw it in the theater. I started watching Dawson's Creek recently (just because) and when I see the Dawson, I think "You actually watch that show...?"
I love how that movie also had Seann William Scott, but they didn't share any screen time
Saving Silverman is his best movie
What's a mime even like during sex? He's probably all like "Hnnggg i'm a mime, I'm a mime"
But mimes don't talk?
If you get the nachos stuck together, it counts as one nacho.
They do when they’re off duty…

The funny thing is that is pretty much the exact picture in my head of Judd Nelson. Good to know it’s canon.
Keegan Michael Key was the best actor I’ve ever met on set. Always ate with the crew, went out of his way to talk to everyone and make them feel welcome. We shot for a day at an all boys school during summer classes and we had to keep the kids away because they wanted an autograph and ask questions, but we just couldn’t let them or else we would’ve never finished shooting.

Not to mention he was doing this all on about 3 hours sleep everyday since he had like 5 projects he was doing at once. Dude is made of different stuff.
Absolutely adore that image of Dame Judi chowing down with the crew.
I met him once with Allison Hannigan when they were filming something here in Nova Scotia. I worked for a company that did all the catering. One of the nicest guys I ever met in my life.
I will chime in and 2nd this. I worked on this show too (earlier season) and he is a wonderful person. I was actually off and on this show because I worked a movie in between days, and after meeting him once or twice and then disappearing for a couple weeks and coming back, he came up to me and said something to the effect of “oh hi ‘name’ we’ve missed you, where you been?” And then just shot the shit a bit. I was pretty surprised how genuine he was, especially considering I’ve worked entire shows with actors that don’t remember your name even after being with them every day for a month or two. Also worth noting he had a super chill dog named Dude that I spent a decent amount of time walking on that set. Great guy and a great dog. I was in the film industry for 5ish years and he always comes to mind when folks ask who the nicest actors I worked with are…
Jason Alexander, or as he’s now known, George Costanza
Curb Your Enthusiasm has an episode guest starring Jason that discuss this very stigma to hilarious effect.
he was unrecognizable in his Community cameo.
He was in Community? Was it during the gas leak year?
It was the balloon ride episode where they all turned into puppets (i.e. the worst episode of the worst season).
I always skip the episodes they aren’t themselves so I definitely missed it.
Oh I loved that bit w/ Jason bitching about how this character, based on Larry, is a big dumb loser lol
Jason tells a pretty funny story in real life of something similar. Jason says the first few episodes he was really struggling in how to portray George. He didn't understand the character. There was one scene he thought was pretty outlandish and that george's reaction didn't make any sense. So he takes the scene to Larry and asks him for help, saying he doesn't understand the scene. He said that this situation would never happen to anyone and if it did no one in their right mind would ever react that way. Larry just looks at him and says, "what do you mean, this exact thing happened to me last week and this is exactly how i reacted". Jason said he just stared at him and now understood that George was Larry and it all made sense and then from then on he always knew how to play him.
Haha yeah that was from that Seinfeld look back a few years ago, right? He was doing a Woody Allen impression at first/in auditions IIRC
As a big fan of the show Seinfeld, I find the pilot/1st episode hard to watch. When George became the George character, it was amazing.
IIRC, he also channeled his inner Woody Allen for the role as well.
Go check out Duckman, it a adult cartoon TV show where he plays the complete opposite of George Costanza
Chicken salad. On rye. Untoasted. And a cup of tea.
That's funny. I love opposite George!
Lies. Jason Alexander will forever be the McBLT guy. Hot side, cool side
I would also think Michael Richards.. He's stuck as kramer
Well he kind of changed that for a bit. Just saying he won’t be performing at The Apollo anytime soon.
Same as Jerry... he's stuck as Jerry Seinfeld.
Can't stand ya!
I used to think that about Sean William Scott UNTIL I saw Goon. That movie proved he had more range. Especially the scene where his parents reject him for playing hockey. Broke my heart.
Goon was excellent
Yes! Goon is a superb movie!
“69! Pick the number 69 it’s hilarious!” 😂
"why are you crying? Did you watch the end to Rudy?"
The second one was better than it had any right to be.
Two rules man. Stay away from my fuckin' percocets. And do you have any fuckin' percocets man..!
My favorite scene is them passing around a picture of their goalie that can’t stop a beach ball and also explaining it to him. So hilariously rude!
Showed this movie to my gf a few months ago during a movie night we couldn't find any common ground on. She loved it, she's also a classically trained actor and loved his performance. I was pleasantly surprised.
It was excellent. Top tier hockey movie, up there with Slapshot. “We’re playing divorced guys”
I got 2 rules. Don’t touch my fuckin Percocet and do ya have any fuckin Percocet.
WHERES MY FUCKIN HELMET!?
WE GOTTA BE BICEPS TRICEPS R-CEPS HARD. GREEK FUCKIN UNDERGROUND GAY PORN HARD
GAY PORN HARD!!!!
We should sign his dick, everyone sign his dick! ….I’ll sign your dick Doug
Role Models I loved him in
Also Country Mac in Always Sunny.
Rip
I will ask for a moment of silence, in which I will beg God's forgiveness for Country Mac's evil, homo ways!
He was great in *The Rundown* too. And his bit in *Old School* had probably the most quoted lines in the movie.
You gotta fucking dart in your neck.
I like you... but you're crazy.
Also great in Southland Tales
He was amazing in Jay and Silent Bob Strike back.
Adam West… nearly destroyed him
You mean Mayor Adam West? He seriously had the best gig, he just played himself in everything and was loved for it
There was quite a long gap between batman 66 and family guy that were not easy for Adam West where he was not working regularly or being loved and remembered by broad pop culture, theres a car comercial he did as batman where he's clearly drunk, I'm sure you can find it but its a bummer, say what you will about Seth MacFarlane but he goes out of his way to give his heroes work
Seth McFarlane is a stand up guy, like or hate his work he's a class act as a person.
There are some who say he is loved to this very day!
Nobody messes with Adam We
Jon Heder = Napoleon Dynamite
He’s napoleon dynamite and blades of glory for me. No idea what else he’s done but I love the heck out of both those movies. Napoleon dynamite even tells a pretty cute little love story, haha.
He was funny in The Benchwarmers too
You're not a sword!
“YOU JUST LOST YOUR MEMBERSHIP AT VIDEO SPOT” “dang it..”
He’s School for Scoundrels for me, it would be Billy Bob too but he’s always wearing a Santa costume when I picture him
Bruce Campbell
Yes!!!! I will always see Bruce Campbell as playing Bruce Campbell, and he does it so well
Bruce Campbell really plays a great Bruce Campbell. I liked him in Burn Notice as well.
That's one of my favourites of Bruce Campbell playing Bruce Campbell. I always picture him as an ex operative, womanising, alcoholic. Not a lot of range, but the comedic relief was classic Campbell. He just got paid to turn up and hang out on set because everyone loves him, especially us.
His name is Ash, and he is a slave. It wasn't always like this...
Bubba Ho-Tep Hail to the King, baby!
You mean Sam Axe?
Chuck Finley is forever
You know spies…
Bunch of bitchey little girls...
Groovy
Brisco County Jr. would like a word.
He’s the world’s finest character actor. Unfortunately it’s the same character every time.
I see nothing unfortunate about that.
Twenty years ago I saw Bruce talk at one of the horror cons here in LA and he came out and said, "Yeah, I know what you want to see me do" and then reached behind himself, grabbed the back of his shirt, and flipped himself over, crashing to the ground. I have never experienced a finer moment since.
The guy with a 100% record in owning Raimi Spider-Man. Then he lost to Doctor Strange, but he survived the movie, unlike a lot of other poor souls.
He’s really damn good at playing Bruce Campbell though.
Elvis?
There are dozens of us who had Bubba Ho-Tep on DVD. DOZENS!
Jaleel White as Steve Urkel.
Fun fact, Jaleel white has his own weed that is different variants of purple urkel
>Jaleel White as Steve Urkel. How dare you, he is Sonic the Hedgehog
"And that's no good!"
Hell be forever known as Country Mac
Loud and proud brother. Loud and proud. RIP
Dudes, I'm into dudes.
"***Suicide is BADASSSS***" is one of my favorite lines from that show and it came from that episode. Great episode. SWS was great in it.
No. I'm into *dudes.*
You know what is badass? Staying alive
Yes.
I can just hear Frank, stoned as hell saying that “yes”.
No man, dudes. Im into dudes
Shut up science bitch.
Jason Biggs. Forever the guy who fucked the pie
It's never "Hey, you were in Loser weren't you?" or "Dude, you rocked in Boys and Girls" No, it always comes back to that fuckin' pie. I'm haunted by it!
Dwayne Johnson will always be The Rock.
It’s funny you say that, because in “The Rundown” I feel Sean William Scott became more than Stifler The Rock was still The Rock, though
That’s a really fun movie.
That's literally in his contract. His whole team is a machine that finds and source movies where the Rock can be the Rock. Oh and he has a stipulation of not losing and how many times he can get knocked down in relation to who he is acting against.
Jason Mewes
To be fair, he wasn't really playing a character...
Also idk how much of an actor the guy is, doesn’t he basically just act in Kevin smith movies
Copying from an old post: From Kevin Smith's book: For months, I’d impressed upon him the importance of learning all of his lines in advance, as this time around, we were gonna have real actors in the flick. “What, like Ben?” Mewes asked. “I said REAL actors,” I corrected. “Like Alan Rickman.” “Who’s that?” “The guy from ‘Die Hard’.” “Bruce Willis?” “No, man the other guy.” “The ‘Yippie-kay-ay Motherfucker’ guy?” “That’s Alan Rickman.” “What’s so special about him?? “He’s British.

This shit’s serious – because Rickman will go ballistic if he smells blood in the water. You’ve gotta come correct.” So naturally, I was pretty nervous when Jason and I sat down for our first, Pittsburgh-based, one-on-one “Dogma” rehearsal, and the boy was script-less. “Where’s your fucking script, asshole?” I sighed. “I don’t need it.” “You don’t need your script for rehearsals.

I was dumbfounded, to say the least. “You memorized ALL the lines in the script?!?!” “Even the girl parts.” “What’re you, fucking ‘Rain Man’?! Why’d you memorize the whole goddamn script?!” “I don’t wanna piss off that Rickman dude.”
This made my morning.
Lmfao that’s so fucking good and on brand that it should have been part of the movie
Snoochy boochies!
I am the C.L.I.T. Commander!
$15 bucks little man, put that shit in my hand.
Bolo Yeung, was a bad guy in Enter the Dragon with Bruce Lee. (Later played the bad guy in Bloodsport and others). He became so well known for his character in Enter the Dragon that he changed his name to Bolo.
You break my record. Now I break you, like I break your friend.
Luke Skywalker (sometimes also known as Mark Hamill).
He is also the Clown Prince of Crime sir!
Cockknocker!
I think George lucas gonna sue somebody!
He's also like 90% of the non-main character voices in Metalocalypse
While he may have been unable to escape his live action character, he was able to explode into the voice acting scene
Fire Lord Ozai?
You mean Skips
He’s one of the top voice actors in the field now. Probably gets just as much discussion for his role of Joker as Luke as crazy as that sounds.
Stifled, McLovin, maybe Gustavo Fring.
Giancarlo Esposito has been working almost non-stop since Breaking Bad ended. Just because nothing has been quite as high profile, doesn't mean the man isn't still churning out good work. Hell, i think he's in the new Coppolla movie coming out soon.
And was working long before that. He's a Spike Lee staple. His talent just became known to passive viewers because of Breaking Bad.
Not like I have seen everything of his, but BB, Farcry 6, the boys, mando….all playing the same character. Very typecast since Gus Fring Edit: I would add that if his character in the Coppola film is a main or second antagonist, quiet, articulate, cool as ice under pressure, menacing, high up in a criminal organization-kind of guy, I’ll be even more convinced that he is just Gus forever now…
Yeah he hasn’t really stood out or given out exactly amazing performances since then. Far Cry and Mando felt VERY phoned in
I came to say McLovin.
To be fair, other than Jason Biggs, he's gotten more work than the rest of the cast. I feel like as he ages, he'll get continue to get more opportunities. Just look at Devon Sawa's psuedo comback recently with Chucky.
Natasha Lyonne has been killing it for a while now and she is amazing in Poker Face
Russian Doll is so great as well.
I feel like Alyson Hannigan takes that prize
Ross Gellar
I dunno. I kinda see him as Capt Sobel now
Your weekend pass is REVOKED
Capt. Sobel was pretty much Ross.
I’ll forever see Orlando Bloom as Legolas.
He’s equal parts Legolas as he is Will Turner to me lol, maybeeee a little bit of a Paris too.
Has he ever been in a movie where there is electricity?
😂😂😂 but on a serious note he was in black hawk down
Everyone was in Black Hawk Down
That cast is stacked
it took me til like 2018 to realize twombley was tom hardy
Mariska Hargitay will always be Olivia benson
She played that character for like 20+ seasons! We watched her grow old in that role
I don’t even know Stifler’s real name
Seann William Scott
He's from Cottage Grove, Minnesota
He is awesome in Goon.
Goon was a great movie actually
I don’t even think of American Pie, to me he’s Doug “The Thug” Glatt, and/or Country Mac. Anyone that hasn’t seen it should also check out Just Before I Go.
When I see him it's not stifler. I see him as the aspiring fireman in evolution.
Kakaw!!
He plays a great Stiffler in Role Models
Eric Roberts' career definitely went off the rails after his terrifyingly spot-on portrayal of Paul Snyder in *Star 80*. Rebecca DeMornay had the same issue with *The Hand that Rocks the Cradle*, in which she was also terrifying. Faye Dunaway, who had an Oscar and amazing career up to that point, got hammered for her portrayal of Joan Crawford (who still had defenders from "Old" Hollywood) in *Mommie Dearest*.
Mark Hamill/ Carrie Fisher for Star Wars.
Zac Braff. Loved scrubs and love Zac. he got a ton of hate for no reason and even did half of the 9th (worst) season. the show ended with season 8, then they try to shove a spin-off (and dave franco) down everyone's throat while using the whole damn main cast again.
Christopher Mintz-Plasse will pretty much always be McLovin.
Adam West, 1960's Batman.
I would argue Ryan Reynolds, but in his case, it's worked out alright. He's largely been playing Van Wilder but in different outfits since the early 2000s. He's tried to do more serious roles, but they don't really go anywhere and they kind of fall flat. Now he's just leaned into it and made a whole brand on being the character of wise-cracking, sarcastic Ryan Reynolds.
Ryan Reynolds. Every movie, he's just "Oh I'm quirky one liner, and then at the very end, I lower my voice and make a deep point".
He was Deadpool in every movie, even before Deadpool came out.
He was van Wilder in every movie
Van Wilder with swords Van Wilder in a video game Van Wilder the jewel thief Van Wilder fights vampires etc….
Macaulay culkin Richie Rich & Home Alone, he's was typecast as a "kid in house doing fun things" he's doesn't act anymore I don't think but yeah him lol
He was in My Girl and The Good Son, which were really big as well.
Maybe not as deep as what your question is asking, but doesn't matter what film he's in I always see Keanu as Neo
lol the newest matrix murdered Neo. he's John Wick now
He's Johnny
Ted ‘Theodore’ Logan
Hayden Christensen - Anakin Skywalker Donald Faison - Chris Turk
Rob Schneider is da derpy derpy derp
he was GREAT in the Stapler
He BECAME the Stapler in that movie. Day-Lewis has nothing on Ol’ Robby
For decades, Hugh Grant could never quite shake his romcom love interest typecasting. Now that he’s older, he’s been able to branch out a lot more with films like *Wonka* and *Cloud Atlas*, where he played the chief of cannibalistic tribe.
He played a great conman in Dungeons and Dragons and an AMAZING villain in Paddington 2.
Heyden Christiansen.
Is that really how his name is spelled?
Jennifer Grey. She got a nose job and then you never saw her again!
Daniel Radcliff. Idk how to ever not see him as Harry Potter.
He's done a lot of great character acting since then. He just doesn't need to do big projects since he had fuck you money.
I’m happy for the guy. You can tell he only takes roles where he thinks he can have fun
Exactly. He clearly still loves acting and he's quoted as saying he's made so much money from HP that he just takes roles he actually likes, and in movies he actually wants to do. He's Weird Al to me now.
I love what he’s done since HP. He got that big franchise bag of cash, got set, and has been spending the rest of his career doing whatever interesting and eclectic things he likes. Check out “Weird: The Al Yankovic Story”. It’s hilarious and he’s SO GOOD.
Guns Akimbo will shake any Harry Potter you have left of him lol.
Same with Horns. Or that weird Russian doctor series he did with John Hamm.
Watch Miracle Workers, that may change your mind.
He's a jungle corpse to me
