Meme celebrates the internet's favorite highly versatile actors
Some actors are more versatile than others. For scientific proof, please see the following meme.
After Reuters tweeted and deleted a post stating that Kirsten Dunst was "best known for her role as Spiderman's girlfriend" (have they ever even heard of Bring It On?), a discussion about the truly versatile actors in our midst ramped up on Twitter.
Soon, it became a full-fledged meme, with people saying their faves could role-swap with basically any famous part. "Rachel Weisz could do James Bond but Daniel Craig couldn't do The Favourite," reads one tweet from user @chastaen. Frankly, this is a great point.
The best thing about this meme is that there are so many good examples to choose from — one for any allegiance you could imagine, really, with the exception of Leonardo DiCaprio. Even Hilary Duff gets her well-deserved time in the sun here. "Hilary Duff could do Inglorious Basterds but Brad Pitt couldn't do Cadet Kelly," user @filmlesbian wrote. We'll take it!
