Are there still super common but non star actors in tv and movies these days?


In the 80s and early 90s, there were a bunch of actors who would show up in pretty much every tv series and tons of movies, but they were never major stars. A few that I can think of are:

Michael Ironside
Judson Scott
That long haired Asian guy with the fumanchu mustache
Richard Lynch

Do they still have actors like that these days that are so ubiquitous but never make A list?
Who are some more from those older days?

Good one!

Probably Aaron Paul? He's very popular but I don't think he's an A lister. His most well known movie was just Need For Speed.

Jason Bateman seems to be in everything ... but I don’t consider him A-lister, just very busy lol
