    Archived from the IMDb Discussion Forums — Kal Penn


    destroyerwod — 14 years ago(June 11, 2011 07:39 PM)

    Don't know for you guys, but i have Kal Pen stamped as Kumar or Taj its like everything different he do won't work, just like i have Vin Diesel stamped as Riddick/Dom Torreto (Xander Cage being a mix of them) or again Schwarzenegger back in the 80-90s as an action muscle man(everything he tried outside that was bad. Just like Jim Carrey was stamp comedy, seeing him in a more serious role was weird
    I don't know, but when you get the number of some role, you should go with them, i liked Bachelor Party Vegas with Kal too, it was similar to what i like from him. Him not saying he got to be the typical indian stereotype everywhere like he was in the first Van Wilder, but im use to see him in over the top comedy i think he should do more of them.
    I just watched Ball and chain, and sure his face is on the cover and his name is on the back cover, but thats almost just a glorified cameo they could 5b4have pretty much use any actors the role would have been the same. IF YOU GOT KAL, USE PROPERLY.

      So in other words; you're saying actors get typecast in roles that made them famous.
      See how I did that without droning on and on?
