Jeff Goldblum always plays the dorky jewish guy. That's because he is a dorky jewish guy. Also me and my girl were talking about this the other day. Tommy Lee Jones: As a cop or someone involved in the protection of people. Fugitive US Marshalls The MIB series No country Rules of Engagement Double Jeopardy Small Soldiers Blue Sky Natural born killers The Client JFK Fire birds Nate and Hayes Rolling Thunder Really the list goes on and on. Those are just ones from the top of my head.

Ricky Gervais is pretty much playing himself in Extras. But thats not a bad thing, its a great thing.

The question I pose in this thread is, what actors do you seem to notice playing the same type of role over and over again? Ones that I immediately notice: Richard Gere: I don't know how to explain it...but he's just always the same guy. He should learn from the fact that the one time he branched out, he got an Oscar nomination. I'm sure there's other obvious ones that I'm forgetting...that's why I'm opening up the discussion. Sandra Bullock falls in to that category as well. Her roles vary but they're all the damn same.
