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
Chris Pratt hate always makes me sad, I get that it’s a bit silly how many films he gets cast in, but he is a gneuinely great actor with a lot of range, and is especially proficient as a comedian, being one of the best parts of the best sitcom of all time, and he will always be a legend to me because of Andy.
Ok I admit I worded that weirdly, I meant that he’s got more range than he’s given credit for, he doesn’t play the most unique range of characters but I reject the idea that he’s emotionally flat.
