typecasted
Given same roles
Typecasted is a nonstandard past tense of typecast, which properly remains unchanged in past forms: She was typecast as the villain.
The -ed ending appears frequently enough to merit notice, though traditionalists consider it an error.
Typecast means to repeatedly assign an actor the same kind of role, or more broadly, to categorize someone based on a single trait: He's been typecasted as the office clown.
