What is the term for actors such as #JenettGoldstein, who had non-headlining roles in several classic movies? Is there a term?

Goldstein was in #Aliens2, #Terminator2, (#Terminator2JudgementDay), and #TitanicFilm, among others.

#AdultESOL class finished today, so watching Aliens 2 with the dogs while pretending to prep a midterm for #K12 reading class this week.

@chris_spackman “Character actor”?

@hal_pomeranz

Could be. I don't know all the nuances of that term. Does it include the idea of being in several classic movies?

I mean, if I was lucky enough to "just" be an extra in any of the #LoTR movies, my great grandchildren (if I had any) would get sick of hearing about it. But to have played named characters with significant screen time in at least 2 well-regarded classic movies? My grandkids would never visit and block my phone number.
