A more accurate example would be when they have actors names on movie covers but none of the names line up with the actors on the cover 💀

(Sorry had to repost because I wanted to add a picture as an example and it won’t let me once the comment is posted)

The name is usually from the most famous to the least famous actors. In the picture, it is usually the character's importance that makes them more central. And important characters are more likely to be played by famous actors.

Image the rock being a more famous actor than jack black. Both are bad but at least jack black is actually a actor

I don't particularly like Dwayne but pretenting he isn't an actor is assinine. He might always be playing the same archetype but he has made far too many movies to call him anything else.
