All play the same role in every movie. They are niche actors. The Oscars should create an award for this type of acting. I enjoyed the movies that they have done but i am somewhat over the type of characters that they always portray.
Dead wrong on Jonah Hill. He may have a distinctive appearance, but his roles were very different on, say, Superbad and Cyrus. He was also a vulnerable fanboy on Get Him to the Greek. I actually think the kid could be a talented actor. I'm stoked for Moneyball, too.
Michael Cera? Did you not see Youth in Revolt? He literally played split personalities. I can understand this sentiment with regard to Cera more than Hill, but this is mainly a problem with casting directors and producers. I think Cera has a future in a multiverse of roles, too. Maybe even tough-guy roles if he were to get some gym time (hey, Johnny Depp did it!).

I agree w/ you on both counts here.
I think the typical Michael Cera "character" is probably just wearing some sort of hooded sweatshirt. (lol, and it's probably red or blue...)
How Kevin James doesn't make anyone's list is beyond me, by the way. That guy is not just the same in any movie, he's the same in every single appearance he's made in video format.
Then again, that's the nature of comedic roles. There's some intellectual dishonesty in filling your entire list with a casting call from SNL or Paul Rudd movies.
Jason Statham easily. I don't bother with his movies anymore because I already know the story arch just by knowing he's in the movie. Tough guy has a hard life but is trying to make an honest living, he gets into some ****, meets hot girls in the process, tough guy in him comes back out and kicks ass, saves the day and gets a better life for himself but not in the original intended way, roll credits.
Done. I just summarized the plot for his next film.
LMAO, you got it! His films are just eye-candy IMO.

Jonah H played the same character in Super bad, saving sarah marshall, and get him to the greek. The vulnerable but lovable, dorky, overweight guy.
