10 Major Stars In Every Hallmark Movie

Sawyer Grant

Harrison Ford

Harrison Ford is a talented, accomplished actor who has worked steadily for decades. One of the interesting quirks of his career is that he's also become a “geek icon.” That's due to playing characters in not one, not two, but three beloved sci-fi/fantasy franchises: Han Solo in the Star Wars saga; the titular hero in the Indiana Jones series; and Rick Deckard in Blade Runner and its sequel, Blade Runner 2049. Most actors are lucky to get a single defining role like that.Take away Solo, Jones, and Deckard, and pretty much any Harrison Ford movie can be considered underrated. The actor has, however, done fine work in many genres, including drama, romance, comedy, and even horror. If you want to see what else he can do, check out any of the following films you may have missed. You'll be glad you did.&nbsp;

Tom Cruise

Tom Cruise has been a movie star since the early 1980s. Over the decades, there have been stories, some of them on the stranger side, about everything from his personal life to<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/tom-cruise-over-the-top-role/melissa-sartore"> the zeal with which he prepares for his roles</a>. He is known to perform many of the extreme stunts in his films, which often place him in physical danger and occasionally have resulted in injury. And while we may not know him personally, his long wild ride in Hollywood almost makes us feel like we do.The intense, take-charge, risk-taking, heroic personality that Cruise often displays on screen may not be that far removed from his <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/crazy-tom-cruise-facts/tracey-graham">off-screen self</a>.

Whether or not you're a fan, these stories prove that this maverick has made his mark as a one-of-a-kind movie star of the zeitgeist.

Pop Culture

One-hit wonders aren&#39;t a phenomenon reserved for the music world. There have been many one-hitwonder actors over the years - talented and seemingly promising young performers who quickly faded after their big break. While being remembered as a single character in a single project can undoubtedly be a challenge to parlay into a successful, long-term career, actors who had <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/talented-actors-remembered-for-one-role/michael-anderson">just one big role</a> often hold a special place in our collective heart.

&nbsp;

It&#39;s no secret that show business&nbsp;is a brutal environment, known for chewing up talented performers and spitting them out. Actors who were one-hit wonders likely experienced this shunning for themselves, relegated either to minor roles in lower-quality productions or to no roles at all. But for one, relatively brief moment, they shone brightly, giving the world a single memorable performance before their star burned out. We can bemoan their stalled careers and wonder <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/actors-who-lost-mainstream-success/jake-williams" target="_blank">what might have been</a>, or&nbsp;we can be grateful for their single-performance legacy.

Jordan Peele

Comedian, writer, and director Jordan Peele&#39;s career took off following the success of&nbsp;MADtv and Key &amp;&nbsp;Peele. Since completing five seasons of his popular comedy show with Keegan-Michael Key, he has moved on to writing and directing for television and film. His TV projects include&nbsp;The Last O.G. and&nbsp;Weird City.&nbsp;He also serves as an executive producer for Lorena, The Hunt, and the 2019 remake of The Twilight Zone. Peele&nbsp;made his directorial film debut with 2017&#39;s&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/facts-about-get-out/donn-saylor" target="_blank">Get Out</a>.&nbsp;His follow-up thriller,&nbsp;Us, premiered in March 2019. He also wrote and produced both films.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Peele has been in the spotlight since&nbsp;Key &amp; Peele,&nbsp;but he was already performing and producing comedy before the hit show. Coming from humble beginnings as a biracial child raised by a single parent, Peele appeared in an educational <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/young-celebrities-in-commercials/celebrity-lists" target="_blank">commercial</a>, studied puppetry, and spent time abroad before hitting the big time.

Facts About Jordan Peele's Early Career That You May Not Know

Things You Didn't Know Jordan Peele Did Before Becoming A Director

Released in 2005, director Francis Lawrence&#39;s&nbsp;Constantine starred Keanu Reeves as&nbsp;the DC Comics/Vertigo character, though fans were quick to note that this movie version of John Constantine didn&#39;t look or sound much like the one from the comics. Originally created by Alan Moore, the Constantine of the Hellblazer&nbsp;comics is an irreverent, foul-mouthed Brit with blond hair while the movie version is played by the dark-haired&nbsp;Reeves - who thankfully does&nbsp;not attempt&nbsp;a British accent as he did in 1992&#39;s&nbsp;Bram Stoker&#39;s Dracula -&nbsp;and the action&nbsp;moves&nbsp;to Los Angeles.

For some fans of the comics, the differences were a deal-breaker, which may have had something to do with the film&#39;s poor critical performance - it only has a 46% on <a href="https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/constantine" target="_blank">Rotten Tomatoes</a>. Also telling, however, is that Constantine came out on the heels of Reeves&#39;s role in the Matrix trilogy,&nbsp;leading to unfair comparisons to those very different films. Also, <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/favorite-comic-book-movies?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">comic book movies</a> hadn&#39;t really found their footing yet in 2005. After all,&nbsp;the first Guillermo del Toro&nbsp;Hellboy&nbsp;came out only the year before and&nbsp;Iron Man&nbsp;was still three years away.

Whatever the reasons, a lot of people dismissed&nbsp;Constantine&nbsp;when it first came out, despite the presence of a truly devilish devil and no&nbsp;shortage of visual panache. With Reeves back in the spotlight thanks to&nbsp;the John Wick&nbsp;franchise, it&#39;s&nbsp;time to take another look at this unsung gem of a movie. You might be surprised to learn that 2005&#39;s&nbsp;Constantine&nbsp;is a better film than you remember.&nbsp;

Dunder Mifflin, This Is Pam

The Office (NBC)

While not every US remake of a British show proves successful, the American version of&nbsp;The Office soared past expectations. After a rocky first season that mostly retreaded the story beats of its predecessor, the Steve Carell-led show steadily became a pop-culture juggernaut. With a large ensemble, zany antics, and plenty of inter-office romance, the show touched on a variety of different topics as&nbsp;its characters were put through their paces. The result was one of the <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/funniest-tv-shows-ever?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">funniest TV shows of all time</a>&nbsp;and a rare example of a remake outshining the original.

As the show ran&nbsp;for nine&nbsp;seasons, audiences clearly loved it, but how did its stars feel? Since the series finale aired in 2013, every cast member of&nbsp;The Office has been asked to share&nbsp;behind-the-scenes stories or discuss whether they&#39;d return for a revival. Along the way,&nbsp;The Office&nbsp;cast has also revealed what they think of the show - and their answers range from sweet to surprising.

Mike Myers

What happened to Mike Myers? Apparently, the man himself would laugh at the notion of a "Mike Myers comeback," because according to him, he’s been right here, doing his thing. He makes a movie, and takes a few years to plan the next one. In the meantime,&nbsp;he plays hockey, soccer, and&nbsp;D&amp;D. He also paints, mainly portraits of Colonel Sanders (not a joke).&nbsp;Myers also has a reputation for being difficult to work with. He can be demanding, moody, and a control freak. It’s possible, then,&nbsp;that producers and directors may not be lining up to work with him. Or, he’s choosy. Or both. In any case, it doesn’t seem that Myers gives these large absences from the public eye any thought.&nbsp;
