* FakeNationality: An American who has played a [[FictionalCountry Kamistani]] (judging by the name, somewhere in south/central Asia or perhaps the Caucasus), a [[FantasyCounterpartCulture fantasy!North Asian]], and a Farsi-Brit, among others. In an unusual coincidence, while he has played Americans (e.g. the Cajun Merriel Shelton in ''The Pacific'') and Egyptians (e.g. Ahkmenrah in ''Night at the Museum''), he has never actually played an American of Egyptian descent (unless Alderson's family changed its name at some time).
