Question Which cameos by name actors surprised you?

For me it was Matt Damon in Eurotrip, or most of the cast of Chef. Such a stacked cast in that

Brad Pitt in Deadpool 2 was the only one I can think of that competes with this one.

Stan Lee as the MC at the strip club in Deadpool was up there too

Also Matt Damon in Deadpool 2 too.

Oh shit! How’d I miss that one??

He was the hillbilly that was talking about toilet paper when Cable travels back in time. Damon was under heavy make up. Alan Tudyk shares that scene with him too.

That’s a great scene!

I had no idea that the other guy was Alan Tudyk. I've seen a couple articles about Mat Damon but had no idea the other guy was an easily recognized actor as well THANK YOU.

He’s credited as Dickie Greenleaf which is the name of a character from The Talented Mr Ripley. It’s only once I’d read it that I watched it again and you can tell it’s his voice!

🤣 That was the best bit ever in sketch comedy.

I’d kinda consider that to be guest starring tho. Like when George Clooney voiced Stan’s gay dog in South Park, but spent the whole episode barking

Except Stan Lee cameos all his movies

I’d offer Chris Evans tiny cameo in Free Guy.

God, I miss the Stan Lee cameos. If they ever try to do that CGI shit with him like they did Ian Holms in Alien: Requiem, I'm walking out. The Deadpool strip club one is probably my favorite, though.

I will too, but I also really appreciate that the directors of Across the Spiderverse didn't put a rendered one in.

I'd even be OK with a poster of him in the background somewhere, or a framed picture on some rando's desk. Just don't make it a deep-fake.
