10 Actors Who Made An Insane Amount Of Movies In One Year
6. Ben Kingsley Featured In 6 Movies In 2013, 2014 & 2015
The Movies: Iron Man 3, Ender's Game, A Common Man, Walking With The Enemy, The Physician, A Birder's Guide To Everything(2013), The Boxtrolls, Learning To Drive, Stoneheart Asylum, Exodus: Gods And Kings, Night At The Museum: Secret Of The Tomb, Robot Overlords (2014), Dragonheart 3: The Sorcerer's Curse, Unity, Self/less, Life, The Walk, Collide (2015) Ben Kingsley is an incredible actor who will also apparently say "Yes!' to anything. Which means that, unfortunately, the thespian-turned-movie star often winds up featuring in lots of questionable movies in which he offers up performances ranging from "camp" to "What the hell is Ben Kingsley doing?" That said, you can't deny the man's work ethic. Even if he does pick some crap projects, he has appeared in 6 movies every year since 2013. Yup: in 2013, Kingsley landed roles in 6 separate motion picture ventures, and - almost as if setting himself a pace for the future - he followed suit in 2014 and 2015 (and probably will in 2016, too, with the way things are currently looking). So, what highlights can be taken from this prolific period? Is it all forgettable claptrap? Um, kind of, though there are a few notable performances to be glimpsed in Iron Man 3, The Common Man, The Boxtrolls and The Walk. Steer seriously clear of Robot Overlords.
