Also, I'm not super familiar with all of his work, but aren't pretty much all of David Morse's major roles cops? I've actually seen him play just about everything but a cop. I've seen him play a doctor (at least twice), a pilot, a marine or other military character (several times), a convict, a president, a terrorist, a serial killer, a prison guard, a priest, a CIA agent, and a footballer. He also played an attorney and cousin of one of the detectives in Homicide. A great episode that ends with an extremely underrated Andre Braugher monologue, m.youtube.com/watch?v=NeL0_NHA3nc

There also Myiam Bialik. For many many years she was just "Blossom" and even though she spent more time playing Amy Fowler on Big Bang Theory. It seems every interview she does someone still brings up Blossom. Has she done anything else besides that? I know she has a new sitcom and Jeopardy! but those are recent.

Outside of a shit ton of voice acting, you're right. Not much physical acting. But she has been steadily working for the last 35 years

But she has been steadily working for the last 35 years Yeah, she pretty much did voice acting in her free time while she was getting her PhD, with a two-year break somewhere in the middle in which she did some live action roles (mainly a couple of guest shots on Curb Your Enthusiasm).

I even saw something in the special features on the Kick-Ass DVD where the director was razzing Chris Mintz-Plasse about it during the costume tests, telling him that the M on his costume's chest was because he was always gonna be McLovin no matter what movie he was in.

Chris Pratt. It's the role that he plays in every single movie he's in.

I've only seen the guy in one thing - the mini movie prequel to FarCry 3 - and even in that somebody derogatorily calls him McLovin.

I know he's a big name with a whack of roles. But for some reason, Everytime I see someone watching something with Kevin Costner my first reaction is to say "Is that Robin Hood?"

If voice actors count, how about Robert Clotworthy as Jim Raynor from StarCraft?
While I know Clotworthy had has a large amount of experience in acting (both Live-Action & VA work), I feel this is the one thing people think of when his name's brought up. Or maybe as the Narrator on Ancient Aliens.

Patrick Stewart is always Professor Xavier to me. Even going back and watching TNG, I see Professor X telling Mr. Data to make it so.
It's a bit recent and it was her first big role, but I feel like Jameela Jamil is always going to be Tahani Al-Jamil.
The original Power Rangers cast will always be known for those roles. Jason David Frank and Amy Jo Johnson especially. Paul Schrier and Jason Narvey will always be Bulk and Skull.
Jorge Garcia will always be Hurley. Terry O'Quinn will always John Locke. Michael Emerson will always be a scary sociopathic anti-villain with a messiah complex.

Dwight Schultz as Murdock I’m pretty sure he’s now much better known as Reginald Barclay from Star Trek.
