He’s one of my favourite Hector.
Not me 👉👈 ?
Who’s your favorite Hectress, though?
Ok but now he needs to be in an adaptation of the Iliad
But playing Achilles.
Playing everyone but the Trojan champion.
Jim Beaver plays Bobby Singer in everything too.
Bruce Almighty? His most memorable role.
I thought that was the butt monkey guy!
Same, but I was afraid to voice it in case I was wrong and opening myself up to some accusations 😅
Well this just might be worse than saying nothing at all. What did you do?
I mean, if you mistake a person of a different race from you as someone else of that race, there’s always going to be some eye narrowing.
I wasn’t thinking this at all and I don’t think anyone else would have had you not preemptively pointed it out
Eh, I try to own my own insecurities. I haven’t seen the movie in ages so I was mostly going off of hairstyle and gang leader status over his face anyhow.
Sooooo many of these Hectors are correct, but some of them are not.
That guy is Noel Gugliemi, and he played “Gang Leader” on The Animal, not Hector.
Price of Glory had a Hector, but that was played by Sal Lopez! Totally different looking dude!
He was a lot of Hectors but not quite that many.
He should still legally change his name to Hector.
You can’t convince me those are not in the same cinematic universe
The Hector cinematic universe.
I’m honestly convinced he’s just really bad at remembering character names so everyone just renames his character Hector
Mutliverse confirmed.
I searched for "Hector’ in the imdb app, he shows up as a result after 5 other people named Hector.
wasnt this motherfucker also Hector in Veronica Mars?
That was Patrick Wolff. This is Noel Gugliemi.
Aka Mr. “Shit pushed in.” And yeah, that’s Tuco Salamanca in there, too.
His work in Breaking Bad was stellar. I didn’t recognize him as Hector Salamanca. Such good actor he is.
At least he was a nurse on the walking dead
Nurse Hector
Hello! AMA /s
Whats your name?
Is there a term for this? When an actor is playing someone who is essentially the same character no matter what movie it is in (even in different thematical universes)?
It’s called “getting Munched”.
What? That would be like saying Chris Hemsworth got “Thor’d” because that’s all he played in the MCU.
Belzer played way more than just Munch.
It’s called getting type cast.
This is one level beyond type casting though, unless Hector is a well established role.
Getting Hector Cast
Happened to me once :)
I would argue that “a Hector” is a recognizable Hispanic trope in a similar fashion to how “a Karen” is an American one.
Ok Hector!
John Wayne played so many characters named “John” or “Duke.” So many that I just tried to count how many roles and I lost track. I counted twice and got two different numbers, but I believe my final tally is 39 roles where his character had at least one of those 2 names.
EDIT: Final tally:
36 - “John” or “Johnny”
3 - “J” first initial, no full name given
5 - “Duke”
And of course his most iconic role of John “JD” Duke!
/s
Considering how many military roles he had, I’m going with Lt. Col. J.B. “Johnny the Duke” Thomas
“type cast” is the casual phrase
in technical acting terms it’s usually referred to as “playing close to self”
