"Typecasting" Meaning

Typecasting refers to the tendency to perceive someone, often an actor, musician, or artist, as being limited to a particular role, genre, or character due to their past performances or public image. It means that people expect them to continue repeating the same type of work or image, rather than exploring new roles or genres.

For example: "After his success in superhero movies, people have typecast him as a box office hero and are surprised to learn that he's also written a book of poetry."
