Who is an "extra"?
An extra is an actor who appears in a film, television show, or stage production in a non-speaking, background role. Their primary function is to fill out scenes and create a realistic setting, such as crowds in a street scene or guests at a party. Extras do not have lines and their roles are usually brief and supportive to the main action of the production.
