Crossword Genius

Additional actor (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

extra

I believe this is a double definition.

'additional' is the first definition.
(extra means additional or surplus)

'actor' is the second definition.
(extra is a type of actor)

(Other definitions for extra that I've seen before include "Additional expense" , "One has no lines" , "Additional, like non-speaking actor" , "Bit player in film" , "on top" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun and The Mirror.
