Whats going on??? how this mister nobody who was just an extra on the set dark night rises has landed a role in expandables??? i dont understand whats happening to this *beep* world??? Plenty of georgeus young actors, perfectly built with screen presents are in the mix in hollywood but mister stallone and avi lerner give a chance to an extra? i dont get it!! he is not even a model as far as i now...by the same token they could give this part to the guy from the street, or gymm. i am so irritated with this choice!!!!

You DO realize 3 things:

1. Having at least one line and/or close-up feature on camera doesn't make you an extra.

2. Plenty of famous B stars have appeared in TDKR as very supporting roles, even one-liners; i.e.: Desmond Harrington, Joey King, Aidan Gillen, Wade Williams (with even less lines than Glen), Juno Temple (A-lister with a role not that much bigger as well), Josh Pence... The thing was that EVERYONE wanted to join in, and there isn't tons of leading roles.

3. Everyone has started out somehow, most of them in small roles, even 'extras' as you say. There are rare example of the lucky one that debuted as leads, Emma Watson from Harry Potter fame coming to mind.

Why are you irritated? You know Glen? You auditioned for the same role? It's not like he is the lead anyway. Why not give someone a chance?

See. I could maybe take you seriously if your grammar was on point. Presence not presents. Expendables not Expandables.

Who cares roles are roles. They picked who they wanted. People have to start somewhere. Most well known actors started with non-talking roles and the next role they had was a huge one. Calm down killer

It's kellan.

And an action movie is not for the acting. It's for the action. Try again
