It took me a while to realise that Ryan Hurst, who plays tough bearded biker Opie in Sons of Anarchy was the paratrooper with the hearing damage in Saving Private Ryan.

I'm really hoping the guy gets some good film roles as he seems like a diverse actor

Surprised no ones mentioned this one - Billy Crystal plays a waiter in Spinal Tap.

Hugh Bonneville of Downton fame played a warfare officer on HMS Devonshire in Tomorrow Never Dies.
And Gerard Butler played a rating.

Love that film, just took a look and have you seen how many films Tom Sizemore has pending? Biggest list of red text I've seen since my high school English exam.

The chief judge in the new Dredd movie appears to be best known previously as a long running nurse character in Holby City.

My OH had to point this out to me - obviously.

Vin Diesel was in Saving Private Ryan

[Hugo a Gogo]

Ewen Bremner (Spud in Trainspotting) was also in Pearl Harbour and Black Hawk Down. I have watched them both and didn't realise either!

He wasn't a main character was he?! I recall seeing him and sending my friend a photo, saying "I didn't know he was in it", but didn't recall him being main.

If so, I am suitably embarrased.

[Hugo a Gogo]

yeah, he was one of the main cast - the big bloke (who looked like Vin Diesel ) who got hit by the sniper while trying to rescue the little girl

[TonyHetherington]

Ah. oops.

[AshVX220]

Simon Pegg was in Band of Brothers too.
