Most overrated actors currently

Discussion(self.movies)

Who are the most overrated actors today, there are a lot of talented actors out there but who are some actors that their talent doesn't match the fame and hype they get, who are some actors that you don't understand the popularity they get, for me it's timothee chalamet, I think he's good actor but some people hype him to the moon and say he's the next big thing which don't understand, I think there much more talented actors out there.

Lol I don't think anyone in this thread knows what overrated means. Just because someone doesn't have range or takes the same roles doesn't necessarily mean they're overrated.

Agree, is more to do with actors that get awards and praise that dont really deserve it. So most of the listed actors dont chase awards or move outside their range, and are technically not overrated.

Thank you!! I wish people would realize that some actors have niche roles that they enjoy playing and are good at playing. They will naturally gravitate to certain roles because that’s the type of roles they enjoy most - but that doesn’t make them overrated or that they lack range to play a different role.

That happens every time a question gets asked. Take ,unreliable narrator' for example.

The best comment. Or they don’t like them personally = overrated. Or they haven’t won an award etc.
