Why don't they just hire a bald actor?

Having suffered with the disgrace of baldness, this is kinda offensive.

This applies to a lot of movies. It's all about the name (which is cynical marketing).

Same with that film Eastern Promises. Why hire Viggo Mortensen when they could've easily hired another Russian actor? They wanted Viggos name billed on the adverts.

That was just one example.

except there are well known actors. Who the hell goes to a mathew macconehgy movie anyway?? the guy is unbearable.

Which makes it odd for you to even post on this forum, doesn't it? Or are you a bald actor thinking the IMDb is the place to get jobs? Sorta doubt it.

No I am not, however I am bald and it is insulting really to have this *beep* pretend to be bald.

No doubt if he hadn't had hair implants, he would be bald. You'll have to be content with the thought of all his pain and suffering.

He was never going bald.

I thought he was going bald in real life.

Haha. I must be an awful human being. And bald. That's why I enjoy seeing Mr. McConaughey bald. It actually makes me feel better than if I had hair myself. Lol. Everyone should be bald! The entire human race.
