Just watching Casino Royal on DVD and noticed Richard Branson in the background!
Very prominent and intentional I reckon!
Who have you noticed in films?
Richard Branson also had a one line part in Superman Returns - He was one of the shuttle engineers Very prominent and intentional I reckon!

In Quantum Of Solace the chairman of Sunseeker Yachts is ferrying Bond across the lake in a vintage Sunseeker, and the chairman of Aston Martin is one of the baddies having a conference at the opera. Seems the marketing boys have tapped into a rich seam of vanity cameo roles for bosses of companies paying fortunes for product placements!

Not me, cut and paste from somewhere else :
''I was an extra in the movie The Patriot and ran directly in front of Mel Gibson dressed in full colonial infantry costume complete with wig, rifle and haversack with a pair of f
king oakley sunglasses on. There were armies marching in the distance and full calvary battalions in each take which had to be reset. We were on the 4th take and I just forgot to take them off. Each take was $10,000''

Some of the above are just background work.
Yeah, what's the line between "extra" and "cameo" I wonder.Edited by Halb on Saturday 23 October 12:12
Jason Statham appears in Collateral, depending on who you believe it may actually have been a movie crossover with Statham appearing as Frank Martin from the Transporter.
senor spielbergo is a driver of a jeep during an early scene in back to the future.
branson was in friends too when they come to london and he's a souvenier seller - wasnt ginger fergie in that too?
worst cameo was schwarzenegger in expendables but he also had a cameo on welcome to the jungle - as the rock walks into the club he's walking out and says have fun. and his cameo in 40 days around the world with jackie chan was awful.
mark wahlberg on date night had a good cameo.
