Most popular movies starring an actor .
posté par WaldoJeffersSTAFFMOD le 29 août 2014 à 08h22
Hello,
I am looking for a way to retrieve the most popular movies starring an actor, or in which a person has participated, whether as crew or cast member. My goal is to provide a short list (of say, 5 items) of the most popular movies a person is known for.
I first tried to retrieve all the movies in which a person was involved, via /person/{id}/movie_credits, and then sort them by popularity, but to my surprise, the popularity property is not available using this method, contrary to /search/movie for example.
Do I have to get all these movies, and then make subsequent requests via /movie/{id} to retrieve each movie's popularity, and then eventually sort my list of movies by popularity ?
Am I missing something ?
Thank you very much for your help !

Hi WaldoJeffers,
You're not missing anything, it isn't really possible right now.
Once I complete this ticket, the popularity would be part of the response and you could do what you would like. I'm not entirely sure when I will get to it but it is on my list.
Cheers.

All of our person credit calls are returning the standard media objects now. Examples can be found in the API docs.
