Eli5: why do only some actors get the prefix “with” in a movie.

Question

I just finished Glass Onion and at the end credits it had all the actors who were in it but only Kate Hudson and Dave Batista had the prefix of “with” before their name. Is there a reason why only they get it?

Side trivia: One amusing last billing was Julia Roberts’s “And Introducing” in Ocean’s 11. At one of the red carpets, George Clooney said something along the lines of “I’d like you to meet Julia,
She’s an up and coming star.” 😋
