And the hardest working actor in Hollywood is....
Well in my opinion its gotta be Eric Roberts. I noticed his IMDB page and the guy has 68 movies and/or TV shows coming out in 2014 alone. Quality over quantity is not adhered to in the Roberts household.
The guy is a hack machine. Anyone think of an actor or actress that appears in more projects on an annual basis?

It's mostly TV, but Donal Logue was in 4 hour long drama shows in the last year or so and has Gotham coming out soon. I don't understand how it's possible to do all these episodes of shows which seem like they film all over Earth.

Yeah, Roberts is rich and likes to travel. He just shot a scene for some indy in OH with some folks I know and everyone said he was awesome.

Eric Roberts is one of those actors who, no matter how many movies he is in, I will always remember for one particular scene:

Dude you have to see Runaway Train. It is a 1985 film based on a screenplay by Akira Kurosawa and is directed by Andrei Konchalovsky. Konchalovsky co-wote Ivan's Cildhood & Andrei Rublev with Andrei Tarkovsky. It was produced by The Canon Group (Golan/Globus). The film also stars Jon Voight as a badass convict & Rebecca DeMornay and also features Danny Trejo & Tiny Zeus Lister (Deebo) in their first movie roles.

Although a cheesy flick (albeit intentional), I loved him in DOA: Dead Or Alive. His line delivery of "right on time" during the volleyball game or when discussing Jamie Pressley's "musculature" were definite winks to the audience regarding the fan service nature of the whole movie.

You have to respect someone with 347 credits on IMDB!
Not the bet actor in the world but usually entertaining. My two favourite Roberts films come from 1995;
The Nature of the Beast - going head to head with Lance Henriksen and some wild dialogue and situations - "Oh God, why did you do it? Why did you have to cut them into little pieces?!"
The Immortals - Insane plot but it works with career best performances from Tia Carrere and Tony Curtis.

Eric Roberts, Tia Carrere and Tony Curtis? In the same movie?! I never heard of this so I just looked it up on IMDB. It's also got Chris Rock, Joe Pantoliano, Clarence Williams III, and William Forsythe in it! I have to see this.




...incredible in Star 80.
