Who is a "supporting actor"?
A supporting actor is an actor who plays a secondary, yet important, role in a film, television show, or theatrical production. While not the central character, the supporting actor's role is crucial to advancing the story and enhancing the performance of the main characters. Supporting actors often provide essential contributions to the plot, offer depth to the story, and help create a well-rounded narrative. Their performances complement the lead actors and contribute significantly to the overall production.
