Maybe he could be swapped in for Jon Stewart, as Stewart’s no longer the host of The Daily Show.

FYI "Stewart" fills in for two. Also that pic of Jack Nicholson looks way too much like Timothy Olyphant

Probably because most easily-recognizable famous people are celebrities.

Wasn´t Bruce Willis born in Idar-Oberstein in Germany???

Or is this quiz just about the state they all live(d) in?

And moved to New Jersey when he was two and stayed there the next 20 or so years. So he is definitely more New Jerseyan than anything else. "Famous People From" quizzes almost always are based where lived when they were a teenager. Those that don't follow the rule are rare and are usually denoted in the clue. For example Einstein could possibly be added to this quiz, but the clue would mention something about spending last 22 years of his life in Princeton.

Surprised that not many guys know Mike Trout. Then again, Trout doesn’t seem to mind that he isn’t that famous.

Tony Soprano is also from New Jersey. It would be a nice type-in for James Gandolfini.
