British actors in America?!


Question: British actors in America!?
Do American actors resent British actors coming over and taking their roles!? Even I can see that M!.Caine and S!.Connery were born with an accent each, but in the modern age everyone can do any accent!. I'm British and Buffy's Spike is note perfect!. But why do Brits get cast as Americans all the time!? Is it cos of less annoying agents!?Www@Enter-QA@Com

The guy from Still Standing, Mark Addy, fooled me!. I thought he was American!. He doesn't use his accent on the show!.


We like M!.Caine and S!.Connery!.

Brits get cast as Americans because there are so few real Americans left!. Everyone over here is a "guest worker" (read illegal alien) and all our jobs shipped to China!. Real Americans all starved to death waiting on French Fries at Wendy's!.!.!.one of the few places that will hire us from the US now!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Being actors, they play the roles that they are given (and choose, if they get that choice)!. Sometimes they play American roles, sometimes they play British roles!.

No, I don't think American actors resent them being British, just the normal resentment of one actor for another if they're trying out for the same role and don't make it!.

Sometimes it is funny when they try to sound like some American accents - like Texan or Southern!. Most of them can't really pull it off - but then again, a lot of American actors have trouble with that as well! And I know I've heard some really bad British accents from American actors!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

it is only a reversal of a trend in the 60's and 70's americans came over here to start in british shows ie robert vaughn in the protectors and martin landau and barbara bain in space1999 and the chrarcter of the baron was changed from a married english man to a single american!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
