Have you ever had this feeling?
You're about to watch a comedy, expecting a few good laughs… and there he is. That one actor who shows up in EVERY comedy — but honestly? He’s just not funny.And the worst part? You can predict his jokes before he even delivers them.
Well, I decided to throw this question out to my readers and social media followers:
“Which actor is NOT funny but is always in comedy movies?”
The answers were honest, hilarious, and, well… controversial. Buckle up.

The Most Mentioned (with a bit of shade)
Kevin HartThe reigning champion. Some people typed “KEVIN HART” in all caps, and one brutally honest comment said:
"Kevin Hart playing a 12-year-old girl is already tired."
Adam SandlerThe eternal darling of '90s comedies — but opinions seem split these days. He was mentioned several times by different people, with someone even adding:
"Adam, yes."
Rob Schneider, David Spade, Vince Vaughn, Owen Wilson, Will Ferrell…All of these made the list too — with varying levels of affection (or not).
One person even dropped just the first name:
“Kevin”Maybe they didn’t want to commit too hard? 😅
🤔 But why are these actors still in everything?
The answer may lie somewhere between nostalgia, old contracts, producer friendships, and that classic phrase:"If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it."…Even if the audience isn’t laughing anymore. Or maybe the industry is just running low on fresh faces?
Also, let’s not forget — many comedies are made for a very specific audience.And maybe you’re not that audience (don’t take it personally).

Now it's your turn!
Which actor do you think is simply not funny, yet keeps popping up in comedy after comedy?
Drop your comment below! Just don’t start a fight, okay? At the end of the day, comedy is subjective.
And if you still laugh at Kevin Hart playing a panicked teenager… that’s totally fine too.
