Updated on January 23rd, 2021 by Saim Cheeda: The CW continues to see success with new shows being introduced on a regular basis.

Due to this, the list has been updated with more actors and the information of the existing names.
Contents

These include roles on Mom, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, and Girl Meets World. He was even featured in a scene for Avengers: Endgame but the role was ultimately cut from the final version.
Mircea Monroe
Despite appearing a majority of episodes on Hart of Dixie, Mircea Monroe was never exclusive to it. Following the end of the series, she remained a main character on Episodes, which she had simultaneously starred in. Following the end of that sitcom, Monroe has slowed her career down a bit.

Kaitlyn Black

Her most noticeable appearance has been a single episode on NCIS: New Orleans in 2016, following two TV films titled Babynapped and Killer Single Dad in subsequent years. To the actress’s she’s very talented, as Black is accomplished in theater, ballet, and even tap dancing. She last appeared in off-Broadway in the improv musical #DateMe.
Laura Bell Bundy
Officially, Laura Bel Bundy had a recurring role on the show, but appearing in 24 episodes is enough to indicate she was a significant part of it. While appearing on Hart of Dixie, Laura simultaneously had a main part on Charlie Sheen’s Anger Management and a minor role on How I Met Your Mother.
Since then, though the actress hasn’t been able to capture regular roles, she’s been seen in several guest appearances in series like American Gods and Angie Tribeca. Her relative hiatus might be explained due to her focus on her personal life, as she married her husband in 2017 and became a mother in 2019.
Tim Matheson
One might take a look at Tim Matheson’s filmography and wonder if he’s struggled to find a regular role in a TV series, but it’s actually due to him preferring to be a director than an actor that he hasn’t been seen regularly onscreen.
He’s directed several shows in the last few years such as Person of Interest, Lucifer, and The Last Ship, before nabbing a main role in 2019’s Virgin River and a part on This Is Us. His break from movies also ended when he appeared in the Child’s Play reboot. The 73-year-old is also father to three fully-grown children.
McKaley Miller
Young actors can never be written off and can be expected to experience a resurgence at some point eventually. McKaley Miller starred in Ma alongside Oscar winner Octavia Davis in 2019 and had an appearance in the Charmed reboot in a guest-starring capacity.
She’s active on social media, where fans can get an insight into what she’s up to on a frequent basis. Her status as a young actor means she’s frequently popping around in TV series such as Into the Dark and 9-1-1: Lone Star.
Wilson Bethel
Wilson Bethel was just a 27-year-old young man when he starred as the main love interest on Hart of Dixie, and now as a mature performer, he’s been venturing into older roles. Fans of the superhero show Daredevil are very familiar with Wilson, who had appeared as one of the villains in Dex — that’s Bullseye, for those unaware of the series.
He also showed up on How to Get Away With Murder before landing a regular in the legal drama series titled All Rise. His personal life isn’t as well-documented as his professional one, but if he continues to gain further notoriety, people will be sure to keep track of this actor.
Cress Williams
