My vote goes to


Djimon Hounsou


This guy is great. I realize he will always play the guy from Africa(ethnic land) but he steals more scenes from great actors than anyone i can think of.

Who you got?

Cast in the same role in everything he plays. He is very good at what he does though.

I swear this dude has been in every movie imaginable. I will re-watch a movie from 15 years ago and notice him in it.

He's not great but he's funny in Superbad and in Arrested Development and certainly plays the same kind of guy in Juno.

HUGE fan of Hounsou!



Paul Rudd, although most comedians are pretty rinse-repeat from film to film.



They switch-up the packaging/roll in each movie, but he basically plays the same character in every film.

John Candy

William H. Macy always seems to get cast as soft spoken, quiet, kinda nervous dude but the guy has some acting chops

Matthew McConaughey

Tommy Lee Jones plays the same type of guy in most of his stuff and he's great. Even if he's a bad guy that's supposed to be scary he's always injecting the humor.

Harrison Ford almost fits into the same category with Jones.

Is Tom Cruise a good actor?
