This week, Emily and Ed celebrate The Range, and Those Who Have It: actors who display tremendous versatility from role to role, and the relationship between the artistic fulfillment provided by variety and the brutal economic reality of being cast in as many different kinds of roles as possible. They also discuss the possible downsides of being versatile, or failed attempts to diversify, and the complicated interplay between versatility and stardom.
