Source: WordNetWhen I was first starting out, and I was less established, I was really concerned about being typecast. Charisma Carpenter
Everybody gets typecast in movies, but you have to make wise choices. I'd say around 90 percent of movie casting is about the way you look, so you have to fight that. If producers had their way, I'd only be in action films, but I'm interested in a more varied career than that. Famke Janssen
I don't really worry about being typecast much. I mean, everyone in Hollywood is typecast to a degree. Peter Sarsgaard
I have been typecast in my career, although the type changes with the decades. Paul Hirsch
I do so many roles, I can't be typecast. Tommy Davidson
That was my one big Hollywood hit, but, in a way, it hurt my picture career. After that, I was typecast as a lion, and there just weren't many parts for lions. Bert Lahr
