Actors Who Can't Escape Their Iconic Roles (Stars Insider)

"Saying yes to an iconic role early in your career seems like it would be a dream come true, but for many actors their deal of a lifetime turns into the reel of their lifetime, with their whole career overshadowed by one character. Some actors have even had difficulty securing work after delivering a fantastic performance in these beloved roles. It seems backward, but if you can't disappear into a new character, you won't get too far in Hollywood. Look through to see other actors who have been defined, often too early for their liking, by one iconic role." - www.starsinsider.com
