Return a list which each object is a dictionary with a key "actor" and a key "character" and an optional key "id" (name_id = False by default).

Note that you can set a limit with the argument limit (limit = 5), or no limit at all with the argument all = True.

The uncredited actors are by default unshown : use the argument uncredited = True for adding them to the cast list.

input : imdb.getCast("Se7en", limit = 5, uncredited = False, all = False, name_id = True):

output : [{'id': 'nm0000151', 'actor': 'Morgan Freeman', 'character': 'Somerset'},
