10 More Huge Actors You Didn’t Notice As Extras In Movies

4. Jeff Goldblum - Annie Hall

This list has already covered Sylvester Stallone making his screen debut in a Woody Allen movie, and while this one isn't the actor's first credit, we come now to Jeff Goldblum's appearance in a Woody Allen movie.

Goldblum rose to stardom throughout the 1980s and '90s with the likes of The Fly, Jurassic Park, and Independence Day, but naturally, there were much smaller roles in the early days of his career. This one in particular saw him enjoy roughly three of four seconds of screen time.

Three years after his debut appearance in 1974's Death Wish, Goldblum's face showed up in Annie Hall as a character credited as Lacey Party Guest. However, even as an extra, and even in so little screen time, the actor managed to get his personality across with his single line of dialogue.

All Goldblum muttered was that he had forgotten his mantra, but there is just something so deliciously Goldblum-esque about the delivery. There would be a few more years of bit parts and supporting roles before he would become a true leading man, but even in just three seconds, his Annie Hall appearance is pure Jeff Goldblum.
