In Hollywood, it only takes one role for an actor to explode into stardom, but in some cases, that role stays with them for the rest of their careers. Many of these actors have become typecast because they give so much of themselves while playing a specific role, which causes the public to view them as that character for the duration of their careers.
The following actors are not typecast. They are very versatile and have appeared in many excellent films of various genres.

Or that the main character from "Million Dollar Baby" is the same amazing fighter from "Boys Don't Cry"?
