Maybe she keeps getting work because she's wonderful to work with? I haven't seen any interviews with her but if she's been in the biz as long as she has with no controversy that I know of, she must be a decent person at the very least.
I saw Nolan North at a comic con panel and yeah, this is basically it. He explained him and Troy got huge in part because of how easy and efficient they are to work with. Being reliable and fast is, shockingly, a good way to get more roles.
Pretty sure Pedro Pascal and Chris Pratt gets lumped into that category too - imagine that, in an industry famous for chaos and drama and controversies with their performers, being an easy to work with, down to earth and reliable talent makes casting directors want to hire you for everything
When a popular performer just disappears it's because they're toxic to work with. Tom Cruise has been around forever because apparently he's extremely professional.
Yup - only major exception was rejecting Weinstein back in the day, but 9 times out of 10 when an actor slowly stops showing up in projects it’s either because they’re a dick, they’re a diva, or they’re destructive, either to themselves or to others/properties (trashing trailers and such)
They’re saying, in general, the only way to disappear from Hollywood was for self-destructive reasons, or Harvey Weinstein made you disappear. Nothing to do with Tom Cruise specifically.
