10 Incredibly Sneaky Film Director Cameos You Totally Missed

10. Michael Bay In Mystery Men

Michael Bay's directing career was in the best shape it's ever been in back in 1999 - the critically mauled Pearl Harbor and Transformers were yet to go behind cameras and the man currently had the well-received trio of Armageddon, The Rock and Bad Boys under his belt.

Bay was also friends with fellow director Kinka Usher, whose first feature film, Mystery Men, was set to hit UK cinemas in December of 1999.

This friendship won Bay a small cameo role in the film, which, at the time, went unnoticed by pretty much everyone watching, since the explosion master wasn't as recognisable a face (nor as famous a name) as he is now.

He can be seen at the bottom of the frame as a frat-pack-leader who interrupts Geoffrey Rush's Casanova Frankenstein with the immortal line, "Dude, can we bring the brewskis?"
