One Actor, two entries with different movies

I noticed that, on my 4.9.3.0 system running on Windows Server 2022, one the actors seems to have two different entries and I can't seem to get them to reconcile.

Danny McBride.  In one entry (I'll consider this the "main" entry since it's got the most entries), I have him in 16 different movies and two TV Shows while the other entry shows him in 6 movies and no TV shows.

I checked the metadata and as far as I can tell the only difference is in the body of the actor's Overview.  Every other field appears to be identical, including all External IDs.  It's also worth noting that there is no overlap - the main entry is missing the 6 movies from the other entry (Clear History, Underworld: Awakening, Due Date, Underworld: Evolution, Underworld, Robin Hood: Men in Tights).

I tried refreshing the metadata and even deleting the actor entry from Due Date and adding it back but it doesn't resolve the issue (for the movie I tried that with).   Any ideas?  Anyone else see anything like this?

Thanks!

Hard to say when it happened on my setup as things have changed over the years.

Usually, the only way to fix if refreshing all the content listed in the linked actor as they come from media not the actor itself.

But will have to look at media content nfo files if you write them.

If I break these down and look at their provider ids only two have same IMDBid,  all have same TMDBids, and only two have same TVDBids per difference in NAME.
