We compared the actors' first movie role to their latest role to see not only how much they've changed through the years but also how far they've gone in their careers.

RTFA people! "We compared the actors' first movie role..." FIRST MOVIE ROLE
I was so sure Sean Connery would be listed here.
Darby O'Gill and the Little People
Christopher walken was on here twice with different movies...
Walken is only once. Edward Norton was twice
I looked at this when it was first put up 3 days ago. Walken was def on here twice. I even showed it to my husband so I know it was there. The top of this post now says 10hours instead of three days ago. So obviously it was edited. 😶 the start movies were different but his last movie was the same so they took the one that was wrong out.
Did someone shorten the list? Christopher Walken and Ed Norton don't show entries now.
Each article at the very bottom says if they were shortened. This one originally had 96 entries.
I have the app on my phone and I don't see where it says the list was shortened, or the original # of entries, but thank you.
