15 Stars Who Have Changed a Lot Since Their Massively Famous Roles

Some roles become legendary not just because of a series’ or movie’s success, but also because of the actor who portrayed them. And it might be hard to break free from that success and re-introduce yourself to the public in a different role. That’s why we tend to “lose” some actors and not see them often in massive roles. Thankfully, some of them are still active but in smaller roles or just through their social media accounts.

1. Michael Rosenbaum (Smallville)

2. Mickey Rourke ( 9½ Weeks)

4. Amandla Stenberg (The Hunger Games)

5. Renee Zellweger (Bridget Jones’ Diary)

6. Matthew Lillard (Scooby-Doo)

7. Willow Shields (The Hunger Games)

8. Marion Dugan (Matilda)

9. Isabelle Fuhrman (The Hunger Games)

10. Larry Hankin (Friends)

11. Alexander Ludwig (The Hunger Games)

12. Josh Hutcherson (The Hunger Games)

13. Pam Ferris (Matilda)

14. Mike Hagerty (Friends)

It’s great to see how the actors from The Pacifier and from White Chicks look like after all these years. Maybe you’ve seen then in something more recent and haven’t even recognized them.
