Hey Pandas, What Fictional Characters Have You Typecast Based On Their Most Famous?

Sometimes, whenever you see an actor in a different role, you can't help but see their most famous character instead. When I saw the trailer for "Frozen Empire", all I saw was Ant-Man and Will Byers busting ghosts (and I think Will has more experience in this field anyway!).What's your experience with this fun "phenomenon"?

I was watching the "Fortune Cookies" episode of SVTFOE and when the character Toffee (voiced by Michael C. Hall) appeared, all I heard was the voice of Dexter Morgan coming from the mouth of this animated lizard monster.

My wife doesn't remember actor's names and calls them by their most memorable roles.

My favourite of all was probably Boromir, played by 'Sharpe'. But we watched Harry Potter & the OOTP recently and she pointed out the following (amongst others):

Hagrid, portrayed by 'Cracker'
Voldemort, portrayed by 'Schindler man'
Professor Trelawney portrayed by 'Nanny McPhee'
Professor Snape, portrayed by 'Snape'* He was previously known as 'The Sheriff'
Sirius, portrayed by 'The Cop from Leon'
But my favourite from that night was, Nymphadora, portrayed by, 'The wildling woman in GOT that I liked'.
