Danny Glover uncredited


Does anyone know why Danny Glover was not credited in this film even though he had a fairly major role?

I'm disappointed that no one has provided an answer yet. Glover's Judge was an important role and well done, too. Perhaps it has something to do with his highly controversial political activism or with some contractual dispute with a studio? Very strange!!

Some big name actors are uncredited in a variety of movies so that the viewers will be suprised when they enter the movie. This happens in movies that still have at least one or two other "A-listers" that can carry the film and get viewers to the theatre.

Here are two examples of this:


Actor Movie Other Actors

Kevin Spacey Se7en Morgan Freeman, Brad Pitt
Will Ferrell Wedding Crashers Vince Vaughn, Owen Wilson

I am sure there are more, but this could be an explanation to why Glover was not credited

I thought about that, too. Really strange.

Very, very odd.
He plays a major role.
Let the conspiracy theorists loose!

Here is a very good discussion on the topic with some likely possibilities (contract issue, billing issue, etc) mentioned: https://filmboards.com/board/p/1374459/

I hate that IMDB forced this diaspora.
