There are a lot of actors who got pigeonholed early in their TV careers, only to later prove they had way more range than people expected.
Bryan Cranston is the obvious example — going from Malcolm in the Middle to Breaking Bad.
Adam Scott also comes to mind, especially post-Severance.
Who else do you think was misjudged early on, and ended up redefining their career?
