WP:BLP of an actor, not properly referenced as passing WP:NACTOR. As always, actors don't get an automatic notability freebie just because they've had roles -- the notability test for an actor is not "the article has a list of acting roles present in it", but "the article has reliable sources in it to support the significance of at least some of his roles".
But of the 10 sources here (11 footnotes, but one source is reduplicated twice as two separate footnotes instead of using proper name-and-callback format), nine are blogs that are not support for notability at all -- and the only one that comes from a real WP:GNG-worthy media outlet (Variety) is just a short casting blurb not substantive enough to get him over the bar all by itself if it's the only acceptable source he's got.
Obviously no prejudice against recreation in the future if and when he has a stronger notability claim than just existing, and better sourcing for it than just blogs, but nothing stated here now is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to be referenced better than this.
