Dear Emily:
This is called “Type Casting”. It is the norm in Hollywood and been so for at least a century.
There are other jobs. But they don’t pay as well. Count your blessings.
We just watched her new show, the Western “The English” a bit hard to follow at times, but worth the watch in the end.
Her Husband John Krasinski (the office / Jack Ryan) is probably a lefty but I have seen a few things to indicate he isn’t a FAR LEFT loon.
