Clarke: Am I In The Movie?

But I wasn't making a blanket statement if you consider the whole quote and not just the part you referenced. I think you may have taken that part of what I said out of context when you detached it from the rest of what I said and just responded to that.

Your original quote was:

Well then, I'm glad he's not pinning his hopes on being in the fillm. Too bad, though. I'm always in favor of just making the film longer, but I know that's not always possible. After all, this isn't Titanic.
And I quoted you as:

I'm always in favor of just making the film longer, but I know that's not always possible.
because that's the bit I still take as a blanket statement.

Because when you say "I'm always in favor of just making the film longer...", it sounds like you are "always" of that opinion and apply that to any film. Always means always, not "in this instance".
 
Therin, I think you've belabored your point about that cherry-picked partial sentence far more thoroughly than it ever warranted. Do leave it be, now, won't you?
 
My thought is that he is in the move but he does not want to or can not give away his character. Perhaps this is contractually until the movie comes out. We will have to wait painfully and see.
 
It is not terribly uncommon for actors (and their roles) to be 100% cut out of a film. Below is an article regarding that. The article itself is not as interesting as the slideshow about halfway down the page titled "Actors Cut from Films".

One of the more interesting cuts mentioned in the slideshow was for The Thin Red Line. Mickey Rourke, Billy Bob Thornton, Gary Oldman, Viggo Mortensen and Martin Sheen were ALL cut out of that film during the editing phase.

That is the case for all cast members. As it was last time.

I've noticed, though, that a few minor character names/titles have been added to IMDb, probably the the excited extras and bit-part actors themselves.

Ooh yes, I can't wait to see the breakout performances for 'Deck Crew #11', 'Bar Patron 2' and 'Sexy Girl 1'. I am particularly curious about 'Meter Maid'.
 
I hope to see an Extended Collector's Edition for Into Darkness, like Avatar.
