This article reads like it's written by a bitter, out-of-work character actor. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.232.5.178 (talk) 20:11, 2 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I took a look at the source for the statement asserting that 'stunt casting' makes roles unavailable for character actors; it cites DVD commentary on the show 24. The article obviously needs an overhaul, despite being only a few sentences in length, though 'stunt casting' is a concept notable enough that I don't think the article should just be nuked entirely. --Genya Avocado (talk) 00:45, 28 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Bit parts?

[edit]

Grand Moff Tarkin and Obi Wan Kenobi are hardly bit parts, and as such almost definitely do not count as 'stunt casting'. I have to agree with the other commenter regarding the article reading as if it were written by a washed up character actor. --Genya Avocado (talk) 00:43, 28 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
