WHAT IS A SUPPORTING CHARACTER
IN FILM? (In the Entertainment
industry.)

A supporting character is a character in a narrative that
is not the focus of the primary story-line, but appears or is mentioned in the story
enough to be more than just a minor character or a cameo appearance. Sometimes,
supporting characters may develop a complex back-story of their own, but this
is usually in relation to the main character, rather than entirely
independently. In television, supporting characters may appear in more than
half of the episodes per season.
Compared to leading roles, supporting roles frequently
provide more opportunities for "nontraditional" actors—actors who
fall outside the narrow boundaries of age, race, and appearance that have long
defined leading roles in Hollywood. Although leading roles have historically
tended to be played by actors who are young, white, and conventionally
attractive, supporting roles have been filled by a vast spectrum of performers
who do not necessarily fit the "look" of a typical Hollywood star.
In some cases, especially in ongoing material such as
comic books and television series, supporting characters themselves may become
main characters in a spin-off if they gain sufficient approval from their
audience.
