This is especially true for action movies that have got big scenes where many people are running from some dangerous event. a But if an actor has just got one speaking part in a movie, they aren‘t an extra any more, What are they exactly then? They're not main actors, of course, you probably won't see their name at the start of the movie although sometimes they completely change the story in the movie. Their roles can be very important, even if they only say one single line. This kind of role is called a A it’ is something really small.
