After The Wizard Of Oz I was typecast as a lion, and there aren't all that many parts for lions.
Bert Lahr

Am I being typecast as a horrible person? I don't know. I don't think so. But if it happens, I'd rather get to play that, because there's nothing fun about being sweet. Sweet can be so boring, so I'd be happy staying away from that.
January Jones

Am I going to complain about being typecast as smart? I don't think so.
Aisha Tyler

As a filmmaker you get typecast just as much as an actor does, so I'm trapped in a genre that I love, but I'm trapped in it!
George A. Romero

At this point in my career, it doesn't bother me much that I'm probably hopelessly typecast. I like to work, and horror films definitely keep me working.
Donald Pleasence

Being typecast is a great thing for an actor. I was considered one of the New York mob actors.
Debi Mazar

Directors, like actors, get typecast.
John Landis

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

Getting typecast is a dangerous thing to do.
Michael Zaslow

I don't ever want to be doing the same sort of thing, I never want to be typecast, because I have way too much to give to be sort of, to always be the hot chick in the movie.
Elisha Cuthbert

I don't feel particularly typecast because I think I do so many different kinds of things. Whether they're seen or not is another issue.
Meg Ryan

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 loved doing all those costume dramas. I didn't think, 'Ooh I've got to avoid being typecast' - you can't ever be dictated to by what other people think. I just do things because I fancy the parts and the directors.
Helena Bonham Carter

I think there's a danger of a being typecast as the all-American mom forever.
JoBeth Williams

I was warned not to do it. Actors who play Jesus are supposed to have a hard time getting other roles to follow, but I felt this was a myth. After all, how can you be typecast as Christ?
Jeffrey Hunter

If I have to be typecast, I'd like it to be as Abraham Lincoln.
Sam Waterston

If you turn down work because you are frightened of getting typecast, you'll never do anything good.
Colin Baker

It seems to me that one thing people do over and over again is try to figure out how to get married, stay married, fall in love, how to rekindle all this stuff. It seems to me to be a pretty eternal theme so I don't know if you can get typecast from making movies about men relating to women. It seems to be what is going on on the planet a lot.
John Cusack

It's about pursuing it rather than waiting to see what comes along. That's partly because I found myself getting typecast, as everyone does unless they pursue roles that are very different from what they've done before.
Christian Bale
