10 Coolest and Most Surprising Cameos in Film History

In case you didn’t know, a cameo is a small role in which a popular celebrity appears on the screen or lends their voice to one of the characters for a brief, often uncredited scene. Each of you probably remembers a few characters like that appearing out of nowhere, but for those of you who don’t pay too much attention to such minute details, we’ve prepared a list of the most unexpected cameos in film history.

1. Matt Damon — Eurotrip

Eurotrip had a very modest box office run, but that didn’t stop Matt Damon from taking part in several very strange scenes. He played the skinhead dude singing the song “Scotty Doesn’t Know Did you catch that it was Matt?.”

2. David Bowie — Zoolander

Zoolander brought together a slew of celebs who played themselves. Even though we saw big names like Winona Ryder, Gwen Stefani, and even Donald Trump, many fans keep coming back to the scene where Stiller and Wilson are stretching on the catwalk and David Bowie enters the room like a badass.

3. Sean Connery — Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves

Not many people know that Sir Sean Connery portrayed Robin Hood in “Robin and Marian” (1976), so it’s no surprise that Connery was asked to play a small role in “Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves.” By the way, despite receiving $ 2 million for his cameo, Sean was not even listed in the credits.

4. Madonna — Die Another Day

In addition to recording the official soundtrack for this James Bond movie, Madonna wished to play the fencing instructor for Pierce Brosnan. Unfortunately, the role was not as successful as the song, and Madonna even received the Golden Raspberry as the Worst Supporting Actress. Brutal!
