17 Actors Who Actually Broke Out Of Their Typecast

"That man is a Robin Williams level actor in the right films when it comes to flawless serious and comedic acting.

The problem is he figured out he gets paid more to hang out with his friends on camera for mid comedies (ex. Grown Ups). You can't blame him if the studio is gonna pay for you and all your bros to hangout in Hawaii for a few months AND you get a dump truck of cash; you would do it, too. So, even though I think he has the actual acting potential to equal Robin, his overall filmography never will, which is sad.

His debut comedies are eternal classics, and Punch Drunk Love, The Longest Yard, and Uncut Gems are all extremely well-made serious films."
