Character page

I think it would be a interesting an d a good idea to have a "Character page", where you can link different actors playing the same character (and displaying the movies/tv shows). A good example would be "Jack Ryan", played by Alec Baldwin, Harrison Ford, Ben Affleck, Chris Pine, John Krasinski from various movies and tv shows. Another example could be Mark Hamill, Heath Ledger, Jack Nicholsen and of course Joaquin Phoenix playing The Joker. The page could show images, a description of the character etc. Of course there should be a clear difference between an real actor/actress page and a fictional character so you can easily distinguish between them. I would also suggest a way to add attribution, in cases where its the same character, but fx different age, or parallell world etc.

@ACT_1​ Thats nice, but this only gives a list of someone called by the same name in movies and tv-shows, but it may not technically list exclusivly one specific character. If several roles share the same name, like "Jack Ryan", it will list everything. So not truly a page for "Jack Ryan", the fictional character created by Tom Clancy.
