It occurred to me that we only seem to see the same couple dozen of actors in the most highly advertised movies any more. Why is that? Surely there are plenty of actors who could cover many of these parts. I mean, good for these actors if they're enjoying the work and want to be overbooked all the time, and I'm sure they're perfectly competent for the jobs, but it does feel to me like Hollywood keeps shoveling out the same thing over and over again, and it's not just the scripts and CGI.
