    I saw this name in a cast of characters in a movie recently, and something ocurred to me:

    Name a relatively prominent entertainer/actor whose first name is a verb, and whose last name is the past tense of that same verb. Hint: the person is male.

    Karma to the first correct answer.

    Thanks for trying, Steve. But we're not throwing random names out there. This man's first name is a verb. His last name is the past tense of that very same verb. :)

    Oh, I get it now! :)

    Nope.. still wrong.

    he is a Londoner yes, and he still uses Rymming slang to this day, but creates his own because many young people in UK dont know what a thrupenny bit is , but they do know who brad pitt is

    Steve

    I wasn't going to let this go for very long. I have been trying to figure it out since you first posted....... I confused myself by locking onto names that were the same. Good one Steve.....
