There is a movie player that would highlight the character/actor on screen at the moment you hit pause. There is a link to find out more that would take you to the appropriate web page with the info.

I want to say it was google play, but not completely sure.

Amazon Prime Video show you information on the actors in the current scene. If you are (e.g.) chromecasting from a phone you have it continually on the mobile display while the film is on the TV.

I've never used that, so there must be another one.

The Google Play video player sometimes does it (or at least sometimes used to).
