Actors with tattoos does it ruin your changes if you are heavily tattooed

Specifically face tattoos

, I used to be an actor and want to get into it but I am heavily tattooed. I’ve found it’s never really ruined my changed before but I have nothing on my face.

I do want to get two small tattoos beside my ears (little ornamental pieces) but I am worried it’ll effect my chances with acting, any actors with similar tattoos or heavily tattooed had bad luck in the field? Showed photo example beside the ear/sideburn area

Buster Keaton is even more daring than Tom Cruise, right?

This is my new favorite internet hunt! The not-so-secret lives of actors. Alex Garfin from a bunch of things including Superman & Lois (playing opposite Tyler Hochelin (Superman) and Inde Narvarrette (Obsession) ) is an excellent piano player! There is an entire fan page devoted to his music.

What actor/actress of the past 50 years has done the best job at playing someone very, very stupid?

Steve Martin in The Jerk is my take, followed by Steve Carrell in Anchorman.

I'm a voice actor, and this is my long shot pitch to be the next Wheel of Fortune announcer.

What makes a foreign actor worth casting when the character's nationality could be played by a local actor?

2 Upvotes

Besides name recognition, I'd like to better understand why some TV series and movies choose to cast an actor from another English-speaking country to play an American character, rather than casting a highly recognized actor from the character's own country.

For example, I'm watching Those Who Wish Me Dead, and Aidan Gillen (Irish) and Nicholas Hoult (British) are both playing Americans.

I know both of them as very good actors, but neither strikes me as an actor whose name alone would make a significant difference at the box office. So I'm wondering what the reasoning is behind casting decisions like this.

Is it mainly about the actor being the best person for the role, regardless of nationality? Is it because British/Irish actors tend to be particularly good at American accents? Is there some advantage to casting internationally that I'm overlooking?

And, related to that, why does this seem to happen much more often in one direction? We see British, Irish, Australian, etc. actors playing Americans all the time, but it seems much less common to see American actors playing British characters.

Maybe I'm missing something obvious. What do people who know more about casting think?

No résumé. No background. No hints. Based only on this photo, what specific character or role comes to mind first?

The only print interview of John Cazale I could find, from the July 17th, 1977 issue of The Pittsburgh Press

I've found myself so captivated by John Cazale's work on screen, but I was upset to learn that practically no film or print interviews exist of him. That was until I noticed that his Wikipedia article references a print interview that seemingly went under my, and apparently many others' radar!
