probably didn't catch on your first watch what's the situation you know the situation we've been over this number 30 Ron Jeremy Ghostbusters Ron Jeremy is one of the most prolific actors in in the entertainment industry having starred in over 2,000 films the overwhelming majority of these just happen to be within the adult genre the water the large sausage we did but we don't have any money how can we pay you however Jeremy has occasionally dipped his toe in more mainstream familyfriendly Productions he briefly appeared in the 1984 classic Ghostbusters among a crowd observing the containment unit explosion at Ghostbusters HQ this is the sign yes a sign all right going out of business it may be easy to miss him because he's not as easily recognizable in The Cameo but that distinctive mustache of his remains unmistakable thankfully unlike his more renowned roles Jeremy remained fully clothed throughout this fleeting moment on screen number 29 Richard Branson Casino Royale Daniel Craig made his first appearance as James Bond in the 2006 film Casino Royale I knew it was too early to promote you well I understand Double O's have a very short life expectancy so your mistake will be shortlived but it seems he wasn't the only newcomer to the bond franchise in this movie there was also billionaire Richard Branson Branson appears in a scene at the Miami Airport where he is hastily frisked by security after triggering the sensors vior a DieHard fan of the franchise The Eccentric businessman essentially paid for his Cameo by offering a free plane to the production team at the last minute helping them save a lot of funds while money might not guarantee happiness it can certainly land you a role in your favorite movie number 28 Jeff Bezos Star Trek Beyond speaking of billionaires who make their way into their favorite film franchises Jeff Bezos fulfilled a lifelong dream by securing a cameo in 2016's Star Trek beyond for years I have been begging par am out which is owned by Viacom to let me be in a Star Trek movie a fan of the franchise since childhood the Amazon founder became close friends with its star William Shatner and named his family Corporation after one of the characters however if you're expecting to see Bezos in his usual appearance you'd be disappointed in the film he appears as an alien Starfleet official completely transformed by prosthetic makeup speak normally despite appearing for just about about 8 seconds Bezos ensured he had a speaking role in a pivotal scene to avoid ending up on The Cutting Room floor number 27 Kenneth Brana Avengers Infinity War The mcu's Avengers Infinity War boasted a heavily stacked cast featuring nearly all of Marvel Superheroes amidst such a crowded lineup it's easy to miss some of the more obscure appearances early in the film a distress signal is heard from an Asgardian ship after Thanos attacks Thor and Loki this is the Asgardian Refugee vessel statement we are under assault I repeat we are under assault engines are dead lights support failing requesting aid from anyel with this urgent plea sets the stage for the chaos Thanos is about to unleash if the voice delivering the signal sounds familiar that's because it's none other than Kenneth Brana who many may remember also directed The first Thor film our crew is made up of Asgardian families we have very few soldiers here this is not a Warcraft I repeat this war only the most attentive fans could have picked this up on the first watch so if you did consider yourself eagle-eyed or in this case eared number 26 Edward Norton Kingdom of Heaven don't fault yourself if you struggled to identify who portrayed the leper King in Ridley Scott's 2005 epic Kingdom of Heaven the s harison say that this disease is God's Vengeance against the vanity of our kingdom surprisingly Edward Norton who brought the character to life deliberately opted not to be credited for the role Norton made this decision in a bid to enhance the mystery surrounding the already mysterious character throughout his brief appearance in the film Norton wore a mask and put on a very different accent essentially rendering himself unrecognizable we must meet him before he reaches carak I will lead the Army my Lord if you travel you'll die send word to Baum to protect the villages while the film received generally mixed reviews Norton's short performance received a claim for being quote phenomenal number 25 Trevor Noah black panther black panther featured an historic lineup of actors including names like the late Chadwick Boseman Michael B Jordan and Lupita yongo this is your last chance throw down your weapons and we can handle this another way but one name also appeared in the credits which may have slipped under many fans Radars that of South African comedian Trevor Noah Noah who was the host of The Daily Show at the time took a short break from the desk to lend his voice to Grio a Siri type wakandan AI system remote piloting system activated in the film gel helps Martin Freeman's character navigate a virtual plane during an intense battle scene what makes this Cameo particularly special is the fact that the wakandan language spoken in the film is based on CA Noah's mother tongue number 24 Jonas Brothers Night at the Museum Battle of the Smithsonian in this scene from the 2009 Night at the Museum sequel Larry and Amelia find themselves hiding from Napoleon soldiers who are on a mission to retrieve the tablet of Amman raw well well Mr dy I quite like the way you're holding me oh sorry I wasn't I wasn't trying to oh please stop beating your gums Mr Dy you haven't been able to take your cheaters off my chassis since the moment we met I literally didn't understand one word of that their location is nearly compromised when they encounter three Cupid statues who surprise them with a serenade it might not appear like it at first but the three statues are actually voiced and modeled after the Jonas Brothers It's a rather obscure cameo in a movie brimming with a lot of more prominent ones if you still have any doubts look no further than their rendition of Love Bug an actual song by the real life pop Trio number 23 David Beckham The Man from Uncle former football star David Beckham and director guy Richie have maintained a strong friendship over the years Beckham even featured in a couple of commercials Richie directed in the early 2010s their collaboration extended into 2015 when Beckham had a minor role in Richie's action spy film The Man from Uncle then you [Music] to [Music] for but it might be challenging spotting Beckham in the scene not only is the lighting quite dim but Beckham also Sports a pair of glasses and a slicked back haircut that makes him a lot less conspicuous we probably would have eventually seen Beckham in a more substantial role but the film's underwhelming box office performance likely put a hold on any sequels number 22 Bradley Cooper 10 Cloverfield Lane this sci-fi horror flick features a notably small cast with only four core actors appearing physically throughout its runtime I see you two are getting along there is however a fifth actor credited in the film whose presence is only felt through his voice in one of the early scenes when Michelle answers a call from her fiance Ben Keen viewers may have recognized the voice of Bradley Cooper on the other end Michelle please don't hang up just talk to me okay I can't believe you just sh come back please say something Cooper's involvement came after a fruitless search for a voice actor which prompted the film's producer JJ Abrams to reach out to him and offer the role his performance easily meets the brief if effectively setting a tense and Eerie tone right from the start number 21 Wes Craven scream Wes Craven the renowned master of horror breathed new life into the slasher genre with a 1996 film scream launching a sprawling multimedia franchise in the process you never told me your name why do you want to know my name cuz I want to know who I'm looking at what did you say I want to know who I'm talking to it's what you said Craven not only directed the first four films in the series he also made Cameo appearances in all of them particularly noteworthy was his turn as Fred the janitor in the first movie where he cleverly disguises himself in a long wig and mustache you call me not your friend he also Dawn attire bearing a striking resemblance to that of his own iconic creation Freddy Krueger injecting an additional layer of metah humor to the already brilliant satire number 20 Michael Kane dunker you can't have a Christopher Nolan movie without Michael Kane but the English actor flew under the radar in Dunkirk Jack Fel one and two while Kane does not appear on screen Tom Hardy and Jack Lowden do receive a radio message at one point from a familiar voice and keep an eye on that gauge even when it gets Lively save enough to get back 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 forest 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 engine's overheating and so am I we either stand down or blow up which do 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 ferly brothers not only reunited with stars Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels but Bill Murray as well who's the astronaut oh 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 piic how's it going ice pick Best Day Ever greatest day of my life really calling Walter White to mind Murray's character makes a living by cooking rock candy that people and cats go crazy for books come from all over the city to buy them the movie might be called Dumb and Dumber too but this is actually a pretty clever Easter egg that only the most attentive movie goers caught it's burning my eyes must be cinjun 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 can I help you has the world outside his office erupts and C 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 and here is your receipt one year before Blues Brothers Spielberg notably directed John Belushi in the war comedy 1941 I'd like to eat sauerkraut for the rest of your life by the way don't be surprised if Dan akroy up in a Spielberg picture later on number 17 Jim Carrey Liar Liar we know what you're thinking Jim Carrey was the lead in Liar Liar how could he have a cameo in his own star vehicle here she comes to wreck the day 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 just a few feet away from Fletcher this is apparently supposed to be Fire Marshall Bill a recurring character Carri portrayed on In Living Color nice to meet you folks fire Mar Bell here won't you come in hey 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 what the hell 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-Man along with host Margo kit as Lois Lane Bill Murray as Superman and various others what what are your superpowers again you talk to the ants is that it well partly but mainly I shrink myself down to the size of an ant while retaining my full human strength while a parody this was technically the first liveaction portrayal of Ant-Man Ant-Man Is heckled by The Flash an Hulk who don't think his powers are anything particularly special Ant-Man and his costume have certainly come a long way since then oh best is this guy's way oh every molecule's quivering now number 15 Nathan fillian Guardians of the Galaxy check out the new meat Nathan fillian is a regular in director James guns movies he's also best known for playing Malcolm Reynolds one of the most beloved Starship captains of all time naturally fillian had to pop up somewhere in Guardians of the Galaxy even the most dieh hard SciFi fans missed his Cameo though I'm going to slather you up into na'vi and jell go to upon arriving at the Kiln Our Heroes come face to face with numerous monstrous inmates fillian voices a blue Thug that gives Peter Quill an especially hard time luckily Groot has Peter's back and the Thug's nose number 14 Kristen wig 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 wig 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 wigs 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 I'm fooling it I'm fooling it cat's dead it's a dead catara neck and I'm pulling it number 13 Cameron Crow 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 most famous Jerry Maguire and say anything Cameron Crow 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 Crow's Vanilla Sky which starred Diaz and Tom Cruz could it be that this whole movie is just a simulated reality happy birthday David happy birthday number 12 Paul Rubin Batman Returns previously working with Tim Burton on peewee's big adventure Reuben's appearance in Batman Returns saw him play a completely different kind of character perhaps that's why he slipped by unnoticed the usually eccentric Reuben 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 peeee alumnist Diane Salinger Reuben's character dumps young Oswald into the sewers where a family of penguins awaits although nobody caught the Cameo at first this has since become one of Reuben's most memorable roles perhaps because of this Ruben would go on to play penguin's father again in the TV series Gotham aside with us Whispering Tales of murder dark plots are in most number 11 Bruce Campbell Fargo what well it's something kind of small but it might be be a big problem written directed and produced by the Cohen Brothers this Oscar winning black comedy follows a man who concocts a plan to kidnap his wife for ransom the criminals he hires and the pregnant police chief on their Trail Fargo May feature Francis McDormand williiam H Macy and Steve bumi but did you also know that Ash Williams himself can be spotted on screen literally that's right when bumi and Peter Storm's smalltime Crooks have Jean lundgard tied up and blindfolded G 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 huh I'm pregnant number 10 Brad Pit Deadpool 2 The vanisher Remains invisible until his days with exforce come to an abrupt end in a blink and you'll miss it moment Brad Pit makes a shocking and hilariously brief Cameo as vanisher flies into a telephone pole vanisher maybe the wind can't blow what I can't see it's a brilliant waste of a great actor and the Cameo is only made funnier when you consider that pit was originally in talks to play cable before scheduling interfered so instead of playing cable he got electrocuted by some cables really Pit's not the only Oceans 11 actor present an unrecognizable Matt Damon also appears as a beer bellied redneck named Dicky Greenleaf who has clearly gone through some changes since The Talented Mr Ripley toilet paper is plenty appe izer but then Huggies Natural Care wet wipes that's your main course and the other guy talking to Damon about toilet paper that's Alan tck what year is it kind of dumbass question is that D 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 due to a containment anomaly all guests must IM when the terrasaurs 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 [Music] himself producer Frank Marshall has snuck Buffett into a few of his films over the years including hook fancied him showing his shoes from our booty well 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 margarita Ville was the climax's 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 Rey what's your name kid the human spider the human spider that's it that's the best you got yeah oh that sucks 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 a punk rock woman is turned on by the idea of a guy with eight hands guy with eight hands sounds hot given that she's 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 Rey actually helped develop the zena TV series which was co-created by lawless's husband Robert taer why wasn't I told of course we're still waiting for an official crossover between Spidey and Zena that's got to exist somewhere in the spiderverse right number seven Dan akroy Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom ah Dr Jones I'm we trying to escape from Shanghai Indie and his friends get some help from a British military officer named art Weber Dan akroy plays Weber although it likely took audience multiple viewings to realize this but there might be a slight inconvenience as you will be riding on a cargo full of live P he kidding it's easy to overlook acro's presence 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 Kevin aren't you Willie Scott the famous American female vocalist and Aid 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 oh yeah J number six George Harrison Monty Python's Life of Brian you may be surprised by the sheer number of times Jo George Harrison is crossed paths with the Monty Python crew Eric Idol directed a music video for Cracker Box Palace and Harrison was a producer for The Lumberjack [Music] Song the former Beetle even helped get Monty Python's Life of Brian off the ground forming handmade films to finance the picture let's got a stoning you can go to a stoning any time oh come on Brian 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 mount's owner although he didn't get much screen time it's safe to say that Harrison was this production savior number five Kate Blanchet Hot Fuzz hello Janine it's me I know I'm at work Kate Blanchet took a break from Oscar winning dramas to make an appearance in this laugh a minute comedy not that you'd notice playing Janine Nick Angel's ex-girlfriend she is concealed under a mask and coveralls which not only hides Blanchet 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 Nicholas what do you want well I have something important to tell you and I didn't want to do it over the phone since Blanchet 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 you just can't switch off Nicholas and until you find a person you care about more than your job you never will number four Steven coar The Hobbit the desolation of smog eruan is not a name from The Lord of the Rings I know it sounds like Eran could be Aragorn's dad but obviously that's arthorn I don't have to explain that to you if you haven't noticed Steven colar is a pretty big Lord of the Rings fan there's an important legal distinction between Golem and smeel smeagle is a perfectly normal Hobbit until he was corrupted by the one ring and became the creature known as Golem as a matter of fact Peter Jackson has described him as the biggest tolken geek he's ever met in The Hobbit the desolation of smog Jackson finally gave the comedian a chance to visit Middle Earth since this franchise has so many characters it isn't surprising that Co bear got lost in the shuffle however he can briefly be seen as a lake town [Music] spy he's only on screen for a few seconds but at least Co bear can say that he's officially part of tolken Mythology Co bear returned the favor by letting smow crash in on the co bear report we both live in gated communities and we're both fiscal conservatives who sleep on giant piles of money quite right time to return to the gold standard R pole 2016 in addition to incorporating celebrity cameos into his films Jackson made his own brief appearance in The Lord of the Rings The Fellowship of the Ring number three Glenn Close hook you bet against me bringing back and back here D you no 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 this scene I did yes you made a boo boo I did I did Captain Hook isn't at all pleased with fellow pirate gutless played by an unrecognizable Glenn Close as punishment for doubting him hook condemns gutas to the boo box with a couple of scorpions the bo 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 close has done drag you never wear a dress number two Steve bumi Pulp Fiction hi I'm buddy I'm can I get you John Travolta and um Thurman are nothing short of captivating during the Jack Rabbit slim scene in Quenton Tarantino's Pulp Fiction since all eyes are on these two audiences often fail to notice Steve bumi as their waiter dressed as Buddy Holly bumi's character serves up a bloody as hell stake and a $5 shake with no bourbon how do you want that cook run to a Cris or bloody as hell bloody as hell and oh yeah look at this Vanilla Coke bumi 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 anything with that shake Martin and Lewis or Amon Andy Martin and Lewis before we continue be sure to subscribe to our

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 r on Star Killer base the one that Ray completely mind tricked and forced to remove her restraints leave the cell open and drop his weapon Daniel Craig I'll tighten those restraints scavenger scum what makes this Cameo especially ingenious is that the Stormtrooper is named jb007 a clear homage to James Bond and his code name well played Abrams well played I will remove these restraints and leave the cell with the door open what other sneaky celebrity movie cameos have you noticed let us know in the
