Movies What actors/actresses always play the same roles?

Bela Lugosi always played creepy evil guys after he came to the US.

Joe Pesci - annoying loud mouth parody of a NYC Italian you want to punch in the face.

However even Gary Oldman looks up to this actor for his diversity in his roles

I'm surprised that guys like Johnny Sins, Rocco
Siffredi, Mr. Marcus are in pron they look like (no
homo) the kind of guys that would have no problem attracting women.
 
Ya know what? I wanna add Sam Jackson to this list... profane, yelling, HNIC
 
Anthony Hopkins explained in an interview that this is how Hollywood was built. He said something like “If you want to see Bruce Willis as John McLean fighting in a building, you’ll want to see him as John McLean fighting in space too.”

Honestly though Hopkins himself is probably one of the classic examples, he's been playing the wise aurthority figure pretty much from Meet Joe Black onwards simply because he does it so well.
 
The answer is Denzel. Angry brotha with a chip on his shoulder.
 
Really though when people talk about "range" there not talking aboutthe ability to take on different mannerisms ala DDL or Oldman, there talking about emotional range.
 
Was going to say Danny Trejo, but TS has that covered.

Saw dude on an old episode of Operacion Repo the other day (Mexican version of the show before it went english).

I'm power driving through 300 episodes of this mexican version, admittedly because I'm in love with Vanessa Gomez's body and in particular her breasts.

I was considering asking thoughts about him. I feel like after Training Day, his roles were similar... like American Gangster

<{monica}>

She looks great in those jeans (code for nice ass!)
 
Jones was really good as Ty Cobb, that was a different role for him.
Yeah, it’s not bad. Related to the quote about Hollywood giving you John McClane in 20 different situations. When I first watched Natural Born Killers I knew that he was in it and the whole time I was sitting there waiting for him to show up like “Gerard is coming for you motherfuckers soon!”. Then he shows up in the third act and he’s a total buffoon and I was disappointed <Lmaoo>
 
George Clooney always has the same vibe, even when he was Batman, he was just Clooney in the bat suit, lol

I'm a fan, don't get me wrong, but sometimes it doesn't really work. I really enjoyed him and most of the cast in Oh brother, where art thou, though, great film.

I was gonna add him and the whole early 2010s nerd crew (Jonah Hill, Michael Serra, Christopher Mintz-Plasse) but the list was long enough.

Jonah Hill has come a long way, lol.
 
I don't think so, but I'm not sure. He seems like he plays the well mannered British guy all through his career.
His best role ever was Jaws 4 The Revenge. Quality acting right here.
