Pretty sure a list of roles that an actor has previously done is called "IMDB" and is already a thing.

Character pages usually list the actor that plays them, with a link to their page in the "Creator" namespace. (Yuri Lowenthal as an example of one)

If someone wants to know about a given actor's roles, that should be enough.

It is fine for Creator pages to list roles that an actor has played. Hey Its That Voice was cut for being utterly inane even for Trivia.

these listings are more about the particular actors than the work they starred in, it was still nice to be able to see a list of all the other well-known roles the actors had right there together.
That is definitely the job of a Creator page, not their work pages.
