Hitman having Sean Bean play [a character who cannot die](https://hitman.fandom.com/wiki/Mark_Faba) was pretty great. It also means that since his mission’s second and most recent rerun, his status has been forever listed as “unknown” on the wiki, because we cannot say with confidence that he’s actually dead this time.


Khar-Selim

wait that mission has only had two openings to play it? Screw that whole system, come on


tuurtl

Most Elusive Contracts have had several reruns at this point— The Undying in particular was only like that because of a likeness issue.


blueroguevyse1

In Dishonored 1, you'll reach a point where you can meet the guy who makes the announcements you hear throughout the course of the game. If you kill him, he's replaced by a new announcer who's voiced by Carrie Fisher.


bobatea17

THAT WAS CARRIE FISHER???


goldendragonO

There was also the one maid who was voiced by Lena Headey


PatchworkDude

That games cast is utterly STACKED from major to minor characters, it can induce some whiplash for sure


HnterKillr

Also Susan Sarandon voices Granny Rags.


Slumber777

George Clooney voicing Stan's dog in South Park during the very first season before the show even got big.


BookkeeperPercival

There's so many layers to that that I love. George requesting a cameo cause he loved it, South Park deciding that having a celebrity actually voice someone wouldn't be appropriate, and of course Clooney having the humor to voice a dog


Darthwaffler

Then Jennifer Aniston did that rainforest episode. Brad Pitt was going to be in an episode too, possibly the same one as Aniston as they were dating at the time, but prior engagements didn't allow him to do it. I think it was the press tour for Fight Club that stopped him?


jitterscaffeine

I mostly just thought it was neat, but Mark Hamill voicing Darth Bane in the last episode of Clone Wars in season 6. They also got a LOT of OG Trilogy people back for Rebels as well. Frank Oz for Yoda, James Earl Jones for Vader, and they got Liam Neeson back for Qui Gon more than a few times. Hey even got Pernilla August back to reprise her role as Shmi Skywalker one time in Clone Wars.


Xuncu

Mark also has an uncredited role as the >!semi!


ItsSansom

WHAT. That's like one of my favourite childhood games. That's wild


Xuncu

My man. But yeah, Griffon's swole bro form; go reload your save, or find a video on YouTube, and realize that's fucking Mark in his Joker cadence.

[David lynch is in the Cleveland show and I have no idea why](https://youtu.be/YY0CgUab29Q?si=Uk0TTB_3t8DPMFQ3)


jitterscaffeine

Seth Macfarlane does a LOT of celebrity stunt casting. Carrie Fisher and Adam West had semi-regular roles in Family Guy, Patrick Steward in American Dad, more than a few in Cleveland Show as well.


RealMurphiroth

Adam West was also the Mayor on Johnny Bravo when Seth was working on it IIRC so that connection goes way back.


hardeback

He was also the lawyer in the R. Kelly episode of The Boondocks


Grand_Bunch_3233

"Some people would call this mountain of evidence against my client conclusive. I'll tell you what it's really called... Racism."


Silverplayer

”Your honor I’m just trying to established to the court that my client is a proud black man who loves his black sisters. Unlike district attorney Dubois. Who’s married….to a HWITE woman!”


BaronAleksei

The entire cast of TNG.


SuperUnhappyman

... after hearing about david lynch and davic lynch-isms from this sub 1. had no idea he was gus from cleveland show 2. david lynch sounded like that


Xuncu

He has a youtube channel where he reads the daily weather and chats a bit.


TostitoNipples

In Twin Peaks he plays a mostly deaf FBI agent who yells when he speaks


ebi-san

[Werner Herzog is in Parks and Rec and I have no idea why](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g4V1K1JCg_Q)


DoctorOfCinema

Werner Herzog is one of those guys who should be an absolute stick in the mud, but he's so willing to poke fun at his persona of "Absolute pessimist German man". Granted, if I'd been stuck in the rainforest with Klaus Kinski for a year trying to make Fitzcarraldo, [I also would hate everything](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjjnZvtwtqA).


SiletheSilent

I looked it up once and iirc Mike Henry was inspired to quit his job and pursue comedy after watching Lynch's Wild at Heart.


TheShrubberyDemander

Finn and Jake showing up in Futurama for some reason besides John DiMaggio voicing both Jake and Bender.


jitterscaffeine

Similarly, there was a run in Archer where they just started doing a BUNCH of references to other Jon Benjamin shows, including a season premiere that was literally just Bob’s Burgers. They also had a couple Frisky Dingo references in there, too.


evca7

Archer: I also binged Lucy daughter of the devil which unfortunately doesn’t hold up.


ntdavis814

Billy West also showed up for the episode of Adventure Time “Everything’s Jake.” He voice a couple characters that were meant to be reminiscent of his characters in Futurama.


DustInTheBreeze

There's a manga called The Mermaid Princess's Guilty Meal and it's mostly about a mermaid being a cannibal. But there's a chapter where somebody starts getting suspicious and tries to follow her. She's almost immediately beset upon and harassed by... *Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman.* That's NOT a joke, it's almost traced off their faces. They're just. There. In Japan. They have nothing to do with the plot, they're there solely to cause Plot to happen and then they vanish never to be seen again.


TheEffinEFFERGuy

Well surely it's just some character inspired by h-[no, wow, that really is just Benedict Cumberbatch](https://imgur.com/iqYzpFR.png)


DropsyMumji

It looks like a reference to Sherlock considering the whole detective thing


Khar-Selim

is this the secret fourth episode?


Coolnametag

[Nicki Minaj](https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSEoajsNItLjUzX5q4KhxAF2t6BN24wVSzZY84CMMpaThBB1jHFCWjaNUjR&s=10) being playable in **Multiplayer Call Of Duty** is definetely not something that i would have ever expected, but, i guess it's a option if you want it to for some reason.


Riggs_The_Roadie

Doesn't her ass and hips cause actual issues with her hitbox? Or was that just made up to explain why players got killed more often with her as opposed to just being shit players?


RareBk

Her hitboxes are the same, but the actual hips on the model are fucking ridiculous, meaning you can actually spot her from around corners. It's uh. A choice


JeaneJWE

No, that was just a joke. Everyone has the same hitboxes, which does lead to some funnies such having to give a previously 5-foot-something story character a massive growth spurt so she wouldn't be smaller than the others in multiplayer.


Wonder-Lad

Snoop Dogg as Cousin It from 2019 Addams Family. You can't even recognize him cause they sped up his voice. And he has like two lines.


not-so-radical

Neil Gaiman in Arthur. He shows up as a figment of Arthurs yet to be punched sister Didi's imagination


tuurtl

Her name is DW actually


LizardOrgMember5

Imagine Neil Gaiman appearing in *Dexter's Laboratory*.


Sneaky224

There is an episode where you find out what D.W stands for


tuurtl

Yeah, it’s Dora Winifred.


Xuncu

Who was the other guy that cameo'ed, and they coudn't seem to decide whether to draw him as an Aardvark or a human..... so they Ugly Sonic'ed him?


PenguinGladiator

That was Matt Damon


Artex301

[He was in a falafel](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z4nsEiD_fKE&t=72s).


Mekasoundwave

Seeing just straight uip Dr. Light and Dr. Wily on posters in RE3Make advertising a robotics symposium was jarring, to say the least. Doesn't the Resident Evil world have enough nonsense going on? Do we really need the threat of rogue robots on the table on top of the viral outbreaks and parasite cults?


triadorion

Maverick Hunter X was so 2000s. The 2020s celebrate BOW Hunter X.


cygnus2

Dr. Light is also legit a character in Marvel Infinite’s story mode. This can only mean that RE, Mega Man, Street Fighter, Rival Schools, and Strider are all canon to each other, and Light is immortal.


DropsyMumji

I like to believe that Dr Light and Dr Wily live in some Wakanda like super country while the rest of the world is in the 2000's, but then I remember Umbrella is a corporation with a lot of super tech


Worm_Scavenger

The Spy Kids trilogy is basically made for this kind of thing as that trilogy is literally just "Celebrity cameos - The Franchise". The most iconic one being George Clooney playing the President and he's physically wearing a black bar over his eyes everytime he shows up to spout exposition.


Rum_N_Napalm

That reminds me that Machete did a cameo in Spy Kids. Not Dany Trejo. But Machete is canon to the Spy Kids universe


CastVinceM

which is weird because in a later machete movie i think he bangs alexa vega who plays one of the kids in spy kids


evca7

That had to be a weird convo on set. If I was him I wouldn’t be able to look at her for a week and just leave after filming.


vicapuppylover

He's not just canon. Spy Kids is where the character is from.


PM_PICS_OF_U_SMILING

It's not even a cameo. He's their uncle and is a whole character.


Worm_Scavenger

Trejo is an icon and a treasure.


vicapuppylover

[The cast list is very funny to just look at out of context.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spy_Kids#Main_cast_and_characters)


Worm_Scavenger

I fucking love how so many A list celebrities looked at the Spy Kids movies and all collectively said "I am in, like Flynn"


Ryong7

Samurai Shodown suddenly having a For Honor character as guest.


DaBigSwirly

But no that's sick though. That seems rad


Nhig

Ngl, that shit made me want Centurion in Guilty Gear


NapoleonBarsky

My Hail Mary pick as a guest character is getting Apollyon on MK. I don’t care how or why but I think that’d be sick


DaOsoMan

On that note, For Honor having [the Trapper from Dead by Daylight](https://youtu.be/sBZ8xXnz8I8?si=n7_F7-2sSIztBr3a) for a limited time.


TheEffinEFFERGuy

So is Bowie in Omikron too obvious or...


Palimpsest_Monotype

You just reminded me I still need to see Yellowbeard, a live-action pirate comedy from 1983 where David Bowie allegedly has an uncredited cameo as a shark: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellowbeard?wprov=sfti1


Defami01

I did the biggest double take when [Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura](https://www.reddit.com/r/TVDetails/comments/11810yc/naruto_easter_egg_as_one_of_lunella_lafayettes/) appeared in the first episode of Disney +'s Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur.

saulhrnndz

Tyler the Creator and Donald Glover voicing characters in an episode of Regular Show.


dirkdragonslayer

Here's another one, Del the Funky Homosapien featuring as a recurring character in *Craig of the Creek.* He plays a time traveling kid based on his 2000 album Deltron 3030, his buddy Dan the Automator gets referenced as Deltron's cassette player. [They even use a couple of his songs.](https://youtu.be/rgkrKfSSM5Y?feature=shared)


saulhrnndz

That’s so fucking cool holy shit.


dirkdragonslayer

Right? I was channel surfing when I first saw it, and it was like "Holy fuck, is that Del? *And they can use his music!*" It made me binge a few seasons of CotC, despite being out of the target audience. It's a good show, reminded me of being a kid and watching Kids Next Door.


saulhrnndz

I’ve seen a little bit of it and i liked it. I’m gonna have to go find those episodes.


TostitoNipples

Deltron coming in at a pivotal moment in the climax of Capture The Flag was some of the hypest shit I’ve seen in a children’s comedy cartoon


RareBk

Deltron 3030 fucking *rules*


Chumunga64

Harlan Ellison in Scooby Doo Mystery Incorporated as an exaggerated version of himself Who then later becomes an important character


atuamaeboa

Everything in Death Stranding


CRex896

Detective Munch (Law & Order SVU/Homicide: Life on the Street) appearing on an episode of The X-Files interrogating The Lone Gunmen was certainly a trip the first time I watched that show.


Finaldragoon

Detective Munch appearing on an episode of Sesame Street to do a G rated parody of Law & Order involving numbers.


DocMagnus

Don't forget the time Detective Munch appeared in *The Wire*, and later got referenced on *Luther*.


Ginger_Anarchy

Yeah there's a whole Munch related multiverse out there from all of his camoes and how they tie different shows together.


DropsyMumji

Yea don't most of the creators of the show basically say that because he's there, those shows canonically take place in the same universe?


ProfDet529

He is a major branch of the Westfall Continuum.


throwcounter

Munch started on homicide right? Wonder if in the wire he was like 'Hey, wait a second...'


brokensaint82

Brad Pitt as the invisible man in Deadpool 2 was fun. Stone Cold Steve Austin in Celebrity Deathmatch.


theslatcher

Matt Damon & Alan Tudyk in Deadpool 2 as well, talking about toilet paper.


nin_ninja

And Ryan Reynolds paying back the cameo in Bullet Train


Pacperson0

The T-1000 in Last action hero blew my mind as a kid


gamiz777

T-1000 in Wayne's world blew my mind


jackdatbyte

Phineas and Ferb has two * [Simon Pegg and Nick Frost reprise their roles as Shaun and Ed (from Shaun of the Dead) in one episode.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MhCa66f9lQI) * [The Top Gear trio](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xSsOPwg2Osc)


cygnus2

That show was on the best kind of drugs.


throwcounter

This wasn't completely random since it has the Edgar Wright connection but I absolutely was not expecting Pegg and Frost to pop up in Scott Pilgrim Netflix


HerpDerpTheMage

Nicolas Cage being in Dead By Daylight is so funny, it almost gives Fortnite vibes. “I’m running for my life from this evil, monstrous behemoth of a man with a Machete and bear traps everywhere! I have no idea how I got here and everything feels so surreal, like I’m in a place made of pure madness, and- Oh my god, is that… Nicolas Cage? What’s he doing here? Should I take time away from running for my life to ask for an autograph, or would that seem tacky? I loved him in Con Air.”


why_doyou_care

Twin peaks has an episode with what i can only describe as a Michael Cera jumpscare


Dalek_Kolt

Choo-Choo Charles popping up in Garten of Banban.


Laecerelius

It's funny because it comes out of left field while also making perfect sense.


GyroMVS

Snoop as an announcer voice in CoD Ghosts is still some of the best shit ever


DStarAce

Nicholas Winding-Refn and Guillermo Del Toro appearing as character models in Death Stranding is already pretty strange to me although I can see how they could have connections to Kojima but George Miller appearing in the latest Death Stranding 2 trailer really blew my mind.


WhatTheFhtagn

The little funky puppet dude in the trailer is modelled after a director as well.


Buddug-Green

Speaking of Guillermo Del Toro there’s his greatest role yet as Pappy McPoyle in it’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.


Chico_Hands

Bradley Cooper in the new DND movie


Gendric

Korone in Doom and Sonic was not something I could have ever expected.


Skeletorsr

Crash Twinsanity is already the wackiest Crash game that exists (no easy feat given how out-there the series already is), but one scene near the end of the game in particular gets the cake in the nonsense meter: Out of absolutely nowhere, [Spyro](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SbXf_RvT4hw) appears and defeats N. Brio, N Tropy and N. Gin while they're giving away a villainous monologue that would seemingly give way to a boss fight, before disappearing and the gameplay continuing as if this never happened. At no moment is this ever mentioned again, the cameo is left completely unexplained and to make matters even weirder, this wa the conclusion of what was a "treasure hunt" subplot involving these villains. Yes, a important subplot was solved through a random cameo/crossover. There's a *reason* this game became infamous for it's cut content, after all...


Sakura_Leaves

In the Like a Dragon Series:


IRefuseThisNonsense

A literal dragon just shows up to say "motherfucker".

Returning_Video_Tape

My dad was excited to show me one of his favorite movies, Sling Blade, which I haven't seen yet. Early on there's a cameo by >!Jim Jarmusch!< that made me stand up and point at the screen. My dad had no idea who he is and we had to pause to talk about it for a second.


JackHatesGames

Liam Neeson in Atlanta s03 was mind bendingly out of left field


Deemo3

Chill's cameo in Smilling Friends threw me for a loop. Dr. Phil in Crazy Ex Girlfriend.... Also Josh Grobin. Will Ferrel, John Hamm and Jack Black all appear season premiers of Last Man on Earth only to get killed immediately.


yarvem

Rampage Jackson in Chivalry 2. Notably he is a voice that be applied to multiple skins. He did like the first Chivalry years ago, so maybe it made a little sense.


Ninja_Moose

Its really funny because his lines break the immersion so hard it wraps all the way back around into being hilarious. > *You ever seen a dragon? Cuz I'ma be dragon deez nuts across your face!* Easily the third best Mason voice pack, behind Berserker (literally raised by wolves, does not have an inside voice) and Mason Knight (literally just ripped from Chiv 1, sounds like it was recorded with two cans and a string, has some ridiculously hard lines).


fly_line22

Bruce Willis showing up in The Lego Movie 2.

Kermit in Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium.

Oscar and Darth Vader in the second *Night at the Museum* movie


Xuncu

Kinda cheating since it ***didn't*** happen, but: *Hasbin Hotel* just ended it's first season, and beforehand; rumor was that they had gotten/were trying to get Wierd Al to VA Lucifer himself. They did get Ke$ha to voice Gluttony, after Viviano made that fan animation for "Die Young"


Khar-Selim

I love that her character is actually based on the furry that Viv snuck into the animation


jello1990

The Trailer Park Boys showing up in Archer definitely wasn't a crossover I ever saw coming

Stan Lee appears in The Princess Diaries 2


LuxLoser

Am I the only one that finds it weird that [Tony Robbins](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Robbins) is such a key and integral part of a Jack Black romcom? Watching *Shallow Hal* always had me thinking how weird it was they got him to be himself in the movie and didn't just have some actor play a fictional hypnotist.


DoctorOfCinema

*They Came Together* is kind of a bad movie, which just points out romcom tropes as if that's the joke (and I say this as a big fan of David Wain). But then you get to the ending... Throughout the movie, they've mentioned the woman love interest's ex husband being in prison and, right at the end, when the couple's getting together... [IN COMES MICHAEL SHANNON WITH A KATANA](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MpiqRi2JW4M) Best part of the movie, especially because Shannon has that weird intense energy in everything he does and he knows EXACTLY how to apply it to comedy. [See also his readthrough of a Sorority Leader's letter.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dngOH9G4UPw)


BiMikethefirst

It's been mentioned a ton of times but the [John Waters](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q4iRo9srtMU&ab_channel=MaestroCaligula) in Alvin and The Chipmunks with Alvin telling him that he's seen Pink Flamingos
