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

582 views

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?

Oh man, it’s such a political thing. Agents fight tooth and nail for the billing credits for their clients. It’s actually quite funny.

If you’re a low budget, non-studio film without much star power in front or behind the camera, the agents from CAA or WME will rinse you DRY. You will literally do as they please. If they need their client to have an “and” or a “with”, you bet your ass you will give it to them.
