Ok its fairly simple OT who do you think are actors and actresses that not neccesarily cant play a different role but always do play the same role.

I'll give you guys an easy one to start it off,

Johnny Depp - In almost all of his movies (i have seen all but a couple) he plays some sort of weirdo that just has a weird personality, Pirates of the Caribean, Sleepy Hollow, Willy Wonka.

His characters for his movies have varied but the way he portrays them their just weird.

Now i know theres more actors/actresses out there that just have a knack for playing the same part,

Who do you think they are OT?

Acting "weird" is so broad. I mean, there is no way that Sweeney is the same as Jack Sparrow. Or Dillinger is the same as Edward Scissorhands. Thats just illogical. Wait till you see Rango!

My pick Harrison Ford. He is very monotone.

You can't pick Harrison Ford. He's a blade runner and Hans Solo.

You can take Leonardo Dicaprio's character in any of his movies, and place him in another one of his movies and it wouldn't make a difference. Still a great actor though.

Adam Sandler for actors.

Can't say much for actresses, I never really pay much attention to them as they're usually almost always the hot girl of the moment...but if I had to pick one...probably Jennifer Aniston.

I'd have to disagree. I don't think his role in Departed or crazy Dream man in Inception would fit into The Beach or Titanic. Or Basketball Diaries. Or really Catch Me If You Can.

My vote is probably Ryan Reynolds, smart ass good looking guy who some how has to have his shirt off. Oh, wait, is that Matthew Mc-con-a-heeyyy! too?
