Actors always associated with two separate roles

Christopher Heyerdahl is also Todd the Wraith on Stargate: Atlantis and one of the Volturi vampires in the Twilight movies, so you can pick and chose for which one you want to associate him with. Certainly many people in my generation would recognize him as Marcus the fancy vampire, but for me he’s Todd the Wraith.

I think you’re mixed up with Quantum Leap and Stargate: the main guy from Quantum Leap was the captain on Enterprise (Scott Bakula), while MacGyver went on to star in Stargate (Richard Dean Anderson).

Alan Rickman isn’t “known” for any one or two roles in particular. When you see Leonard Nimoy, you think “Spock.” When you see Alan Rickman, you think “Alan Rickman.”

George Burns (The guy who sponged off Gracie Allen)

George Burns (The guy who turned out to actually have talent)

Black Hawk Down. We always make fun of the elf falling out of the helicopter.

You realize he starred in Breakfast at Tiffany’s, right?

You realize I didn’t say that, right? :wink:

He will always be Banacek to me…

I came here to mention Scott Bakula as Captain Archer and Murphy Brown’s boyfriend.
Peter Sellers as Inspector Clouseau and Chance from **Being There. ** Also his three roles in Dr. Strangelove.

Bill Murray as Carl the assistant groundskeeper from Caddyshack and Venkmen from **
Ghostbusters.**

I had one more, but I forgot it.

Patty Duke as Patty Lane or as Cathy Lane

Sally Field as Gidget, Flying Nun, Norma Rae Webster, lots of other stuff or a person with potentially weak bones and one life to live.

Patrick McGoohan as John Drake, Number 6, Rafferty

I always kinda thought that the Prisoner was Secret Agent Man.

it seems an issue of debate. i think Patrick McGoohan claimed they weren’t.

Roger Moore, The Saint (T.V.), Bond, James Bond.

Even though Susan Sarandon’s had a double handful of memorable roles, I’m willing to bet that the main two that people will mention when she dies are Janet Weiss from Rocky Horror and Louise from Thelma &.

Gump’s mom.

To me he’ll always be Unicron. (rumors that he died after a few lines and Nimoy did the rest w/pitch adjustment notwithstanding)

Speaking of Nimoy, Spock and Galvatron.

Yeah, I was a kid in the 80’s, lol

I think you mean Hannibal and Banacek.

Also Maggie Gavin (“Rescue Me”).

Interesting how only like 2 actors with 90’s-00’s films were mentioned so far.

John Forsythe: Dynasty and Charlie’s Angels
Patrick Duffy: Man from Atlantis, Dallas
Larry Hagman: Dallas, I Dream of Jeannie
Tom Selleck: Magnum, Three Men and a/an X
Rick Moranis: Honey I shrunk the X, Ghostbusters, Little Shop of Horrors
