# The Mark Strong But Game



A game where a film is named whose cast contains actors whose performance is usually of a high calibre, such as the titular [Mark Strong](Mark_Strong), but that also has an actor whose output is usually of a lower quality. The game, created by the bald-headed acting legend, plays on actors "[asking for the and](Ask_for_the_and)" in their poster billing, something originally raised by [Tom Wilkinson](/web/20221106235923/https://witterpedia.net/wiki/index.php?title=Tom%5FWilkinson&action=edit&redlink=1 "Tom Wilkinson (page does not exist)").

Examples of this might be:

* "The Fifth Element", starring Bruce Willis and Gary Oldman, but Chris Tucker
* "Leaving Las Vegas", starring [Nicolas Cage](Old_Horse_Face) and Elisabeth Shue, but Julian Sands
* any film with Keanu Reeves.
