Top 20 Hidden Celebrity Movie Cameos You Missed

these actors stole the show even if we didn't realize it welcome to watchmojo.com iou's and movies down the hall into the left thanks for this list we're looking at stars who made cameos and movies without the audience even noticing check their IMDB pages if you don't believe us you what why you laughing I don't know he was laughing number 20 Michael Caine Dunkirk he can't have a Christopher Nolan movie without Michael Caine but the English actor flew under the radar in Dunkirk while Caine does not appear on screen Tom Hardy and Jack Loudon do receive a radio message at one point from a familiar voice it's not easy to hear over the noisy planes but if you listen closely you can totally make out Kane's signature cockney accent Kane's cameo as the Fortis leader was an homage to his role in battle of britain a 1969 world war ii drama in which he played Squadron Leader Canfield almost 5 decades later Kane is still fighting the same war the engines overheating and so am i we had to stand down or blow up which would you want number 19 Bill Murray Dumb and Dumber to I like what you've done with the place nice cappuccino machine in this long-awaited sequel the Farrelly Brothers not only reunited with stars Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels but Bill Murray as well who's the astronaut that's my roommate if you missed Murray that's because he was hidden under a hazmat suit returning home for the first time in 20 years Lloyd learns that Harry has been sharing the apartment with a mysterious man named ice pick how's it going calling Walter White to mind Murray's character makes a living by cooking and rock candy that people and cats go crazy for folks come from all over the city to fire the movie might be called Dumb and Dumber too but this is actually a pretty clever easter egg that only the most attentive moviegoers caught burning my eyes must be cajun-style number 18 Steven Spielberg the Blues Brothers the climax of this comedy classic throws in everything but the kitchen sink with the police firefighters and even the military pursuing the Blues Brothers it's easy to miss arguably the most iconic director alive as the world outside his office erupts in chaos a Cook County Assessor played by Steven Spielberg obliviously eats his sandwich lunch is interrupted by Jake and Elwood who pay their taxes just before the authorities cuff them 5,000 bucks it's all there pal Spielberg signs the receipts with the name RJ Daly a subtle nod to Chicago Mayor Richard J Daly one year before Blues Brothers Spielberg notably directed John Belushi in the war comedy 1941 it's like they'd sauerkraut for the rest your life by the way don't be surprised if Dan Aykroyd pops up in a Spielberg picture later on number 17 Jim Carrey liar liar we know what you're thinking Jim Carrey was the lead and liar liar how could he have a cameo in his own star vehicle well remember the scene where Fletcher Reed gets injured at the airport look closely as his family shoves their way through a crowd of people in the background you might recognize a grinning fireman hidden behind a pair of shades yeah he's my husband was my husband it is none other than Carrie standing just a few feet away from Fletcher this is apparently supposed to be fire marshal bill a recurring character Carrie portrayed on in living color votes if Ace Ventura and stanley ipkiss can exist in the same universe why not Fletcher and bill number 16 Garrett Morris ant-man when Scott Lang takes his ant-man suit for a test drive he lands on the roof of a car parked outside the driver is played by comedian Garrett Morris who was a cast member on Saturday Night Live from 1975 to 1980 at first this may seem like a random cameo but hardcore SNL fans will notice its significance in a sketch entitled superhero party Morris appeared as ant men along with host Margot Kidder as Lois Lane Bill Murray is Superman and various others while a parody this was technically the first live-action portrayal of ant-man ant-man is heckled by the flash and Hulk who don't think his powers are anything particularly special ant-man and his costume have certainly come a long way since then number 15 nathan fillion guardians of the galaxy nathan fillion is a regular in director James Gunn's movies he's also best known for playing Malcolm Reynolds one of the most beloved starship captains of all time naturally Fillion had to pop up somewhere in guardians of the galaxy even the most die-hard sci-fi fans missed his cameo though upon arriving at the kiln our heroes come face-to-face with numerous monstrous inmates Fillion voices a blue thug that gives Peter quill an especially hard time luckily Groot has Peters back and the thugs nose number 14 Kristen Wiig her the following are adult female can't sleep and want to have some fun this film follows the romance between a man named Theodore and an OS named Samantha before Theodore Falls for the disembodied voice of his dreams he tries to make a connection with a fellow lonely soul an unseen kristen wiig voices sexy kitten a woman that can't sleep and wants to have some fun hi I'm here alone and I can't sleep who's out there to share this bed with me initially she seems like an ideal candidate for a phone sex hookup when she starts talking about dead cats however Theodore suddenly loses his sex drive many people didn't recognize Wiggs voice although they probably should have in retrospect after all she's one of the few comedians that could pull off this role with just the right balance of quirkiness and kinkiness number 13 Cameron Crowe Minority Report not even the precogs could have foreseen this cameo wanted for a crime that hasn't happened yet Chief John Anderton's name and face are soon plastered over every newspaper Anderton is spotted by a passenger sitting across from him on a train even if you don't recognize the passenger you might have seen some of his movies which include almost famous Jerry Maguire and say anything Cameron Crowe isn't the only famous face on this train as Cameron Diaz can also be seen sitting behind him what's the common thread here one year earlier director Steven Spielberg made an uncredited cameo as a party guest in Crowe's Vanilla Sky which starred Diaz and Tom Cruise could it be that this whole movie is just a simulated reality number 12 Paul Reubens Batman Returns previously working with Tim Burton on pee-wee's big adventure Reubens appearance in Batman Returns saw him play a completely different kind of character perhaps that's why he slipped by unnoticed the usually eccentric Rubin stars as Tucker Cobblepot a restrained distant man who views his newly born son as an abomination along with his equally heartless wife played by fellow pee-wee alumnus Diane Salinger Reubens character dumps young Oswald into the sewers we're a family of penguins awaits [Music] although nobody caught the cameo at first this has since become one of Rubens most memorable roles perhaps because of this Rubens would go on to play penguins father again in the TV series Gotham Isabella so far the other side with us with spring tales of murder number 11 Bruce Campbell Fargo written directed and produced by the Coen brothers this oscar-winning black comedy follows a man who can Cox a plan to kidnap his wife for ransom the criminals he hires and the pregnant police chief on their trail Fargo may feature Frances McDormand William H Macy and Steve Buscemi but did you also know that ash Williams himself can be spotted on screen literally that's right when Buscemi and Peter star modest small-time crooks have gene Lundegaard tied up and blindfolded Gere watches the tube to pass the time the show that captures his attention before the arrival of his partner Carl happens to be a soap opera with Campbell acting in a dramatic scene that leaves Gare momentarily speechless I'm pregnant I'm pregnant number 10 Brad Pitt Deadpool to the Vanisher remains invisible until his days with x-force come to an abrupt end in a blink and you'll miss it moment Brad Pitt makes a shocking and hilariously brief cameo as Vanisher flies into a telephone pole maybe the wind can't blow it's a brilliant waste of a great actor and the Cameo is only made funnier when you consider the Pitt was originally in talks to play cable before scheduling interfered so instead of playing cable he got electrocuted by some cables [Music] it's not the only Ocean's eleven actor present an unrecognizable Matt Damon also appears as a beer-bellied redneck named Dickie Greenleaf who has clearly gone through some changes since the talented mr. Ripley oh let paper is plenty fine an appetizer but in Huggies natural care wet laps that's your main course in the other guy talking to Damon about toilet paper that's alan tudyk here's some dumbass questions that day number nine Jimmy Buffett Jurassic world Jurassic world is wall-to-wall with product placement but let's be honest if a Jurassic theme park were real it would probably have more corporate sponsors than dinosaurs among the many brand names in the film is Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville when the pterosaurs break free from their aviary the Margaritaville patrons are forced to flee for their lives in the midst of all this anarchy one man grabs two large margarita glasses before taking off this margarita enthusiast is Jimmy Buffett himself [Music] producer Frank Marshall has snuck Buffett into a few of his films over the years including hook fancy shiny shoes booties I think you can get them at Armani this is easily Buffett's most meta cameo however while we never learned the fate of Buffett's character the Margaritaville was the climaxes greatest casualty number eight Lucy Lawless spider-man we all know that Bruce Campbell appeared throughout the original spider-man trilogy but he's not the only actor with close ties to director Sam Raimi what's your name kid the human spider human spider that's it that's the best you got yeah as spider-man rises up as the hero New York needs several residents share their thoughts on the webslinger this is not a man my brother saw him building a nest in the Lincoln Center fountain a punk rock woman is turned on by the idea of a guy with eight hands guy with eight hands stop givin the cheese best known for playing the titular character in Xena Warrior Princess it likely didn't occur to you that this New Yorker is Lucy Lawless Raimi actually helped develop the Xena TV series which was co-created by Wallace's husband Robert Tapert why wasn't I told of course we're still waiting for an official crossover between Spidey and Xena that's gotta exist somewhere in the spider-verse right number seven dan Aykroyd Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom trying to escape from Shanghai Indy and his friends get some help from a British military officer named art weber dan Aykroyd plays Webber although it likely took audiences multiple viewings to realize this easy to overlook Ackroyd's presents since the camera never zooms in on his face plus he puts on a thick English accent and delivers his lines at a rapid pace and Aykroyd isn't the only big name that makes an appearance in the scene director Steven Spielberg co-writer George Lucas associate producer Kathleen Kennedy and executive producer Frank Marshall can all be spotted at the airport talk about cameo overload [Music] number six George Harrison Monty Python's Life of Brian you may be surprised by the sheer number of times George Harrison has crossed paths with the Monty Python crew Eric Idle directed a music video for Crackerbox Palace and Harrison was a producer for the lumberjack song the former Beatle even helped get Monty Python's Life of Brian off the ground forming handmade films to finance the picture since this comedy classic probably wouldn't exist without Harrison the least the filmmakers could do was give him a cameo as Brian makes his way through a crowd Harrison can be seen greeting the so-called Messiah Harrison's character is named mr. Papadopoulos the mounts owner although he didn't get much screen time it's safe to say that Harrison was this production Savior number 5 cate blanchett Hot Fuzz Cate Blanchett took a break from oscar-winning dramas to make an appearance in this laugh-a-minute comedy not that you'd notice playing Janene nick angels ex-girlfriend she is concealed under a mask and coveralls which not only hides Blanchett but also means her character blends in with everyone else at the crime scene angel can't even differentiate who's who as he attempts to bid his former lover farewell Nicolas what do you want well I have something important to tell you and I didn't want to do it over the phone since Blanchett is arguably the most accomplished performer in the movie you'd think that the filmmakers would at least show her whole face yet they clearly went out of their way to make sure nobody in the audience spotted her this just makes her uncredited cameo all the more hilarious just can't switch off Nicolas and until you find a person you care about more than your job you never will number 4 Stephen Colbert the hobbit the desolation of smaug a new one is not a name from the Lord of the Rings I know it sounds like air Dhawan could be aragorn's dead but obviously that's arrow thorn I don't have explain that to you if you haven't noticed Stephen Colbert is a pretty big Lord of the Rings fan there is an important legal distinction between golem and Smeagol Smeagol perfectly normal hobbit until he was corrupted by the One Ring and became the creature known as Gollum as a matter of fact Peter Jackson has described him as the biggest Tolkien geek he's ever met in the hobbit the desolation of smaug Jackson finally gave the comedian a chance to visit middle-earth since this franchise has so many characters it isn't surprising that Colbert got lost in the shuffle however he can briefly be seen as a Laketown spy he's only on screen for a few seconds but at least Colbert can say that he's officially part of Tolkien mythology Colbert returned the favor by letting Smaug crash in on The Colbert Report we both live in gated communities and we're both fiscal conservatives who sleep on giant piles of money return to the gold standard number three Glenn Close hook you bet against me bringing man back hook has a couple of fun cameos but this one is by far the sneakiest hiding an oscar-nominated actress in plain sight is no easy task but director Steven Spielberg pulled it off in the scene [Music] Captain Hook isn't at all pleased with fellow pirate gutless played by an unrecognizable Glenn Close as punishment for doubting him hook condemns gutless to the boo box with a couple of scorpions [Music] although gutless is supposedly a man it wasn't uncommon for women to disguise themselves as male pirates so perhaps that's the basis behind this cameo it also wouldn't be the last time clothes has done drag you never wear dress number two Steve Buscemi pulp fiction hi I'm buddy can I get you John Travolta and uma Thurman are nothing short of captivating during the Jackrabbit slims scene in Quentin Tarantino's pulp fiction since all eyes are on these two audiences often fail to notice Steve Buscemi as their waiter dressed as Buddy Holly who Sammy's character serves up a bloody as hell steak and a five dollar shake with no bourbon any want that cooked run to a crisper bloody as hell buddy is Helen oh yeah look at this vanilla coke Buscemi previously played mr. pink in Tarantino's Reservoir Dogs which is technically set in the same universe so does this mean that the waiter is actually mr. pink hiding from the police if so he's doing a great job at keeping a low profile I mean with that shake Martin Lewis or a Miss Amanda Lewis before we unveil our number one pick here are some honorable mentions Wes Craven scream demo shits would you call me [Music] Bradley Cooper 10 Cloverfield Lane so please don't hang up just talk to me okay David Beckham The Man

the force awakens you will remove these restraints and leave this cell with the door open what did you see Daniel Craig has become iconic for his portrayal of James Bond but that's not the only blockbuster franchise he's taken part in everyone was stunned to learn that Craig played a stormtrooper in Star Wars The Force awakens which stormtrooper you ask remember the soldier that was put in charge of guarding Ray on Starkiller base the one that ray completely mind tricked and forced to remove her restraints leave the cell open and drop his weapon Daniel Craig tighten those restraints scavenger scum what makes this cameo especially ingenious is that the stormtrooper is named JB double-oh-seven a clear homage to James Bond and his codename well-played Abrams well played do you agree
