Does this trope apply to actors/singers as well? There are plenty of cases where a popular actor gets a resurgence of fans because of a recent role of theirs. Examples include:

• Idina Menzel: Broadway fans knew her from Rent and Wicked, but she's gained popularity again because of Frozen.

• Estelle: Released a hit single in 2008 "American Boy", now known as Garnet from Steven Universe

• Billie Piper: In the 90s she was a successful pop singer, but more recently is better known as Rose Tyler.

• Mark Hamill: You either knew him as Luke Skywalker or The Joker depending on when you were born.

• John De Lancie: Hugely popular as Q for Trekkies, became popular as Discord thanks to the Bronies.

This shouldn't have subjective banner, it should have a trivia banner.

I just love the picture of Willy Wonka. For some reason, it makes me giggle. He just looks like:

"lol Oh, I'm sorry, you must be new here. Let me let you in on a little secret."
