9 Actors You Didn’t Know Were In Movies

9. Glenn Close In Hook

From the moment it opens, Hook instantly features two big surprise appearances that you wouldn't know about unless you know. Said surprises are Carrie Fisher and George Lucas as a couple sharing a kiss during the film's introduction.

Away from that, there's one other big-name star that is completely unrecognisable in Steven Spielberg's 1991 feature.

That person? Why, it's seven-time Oscar-nominated actress, Glenn Close.

When Dustin Hoffman's Hook looks to make a public example of one of his fellow pirates, he turns his attention to a bearded fella named Gutless.

What lies ahead for poor Gutless is a stay in Captain James Hook's 'boo box', which involved Gutless being locked in a chest with only scorpions to keep him company. Safe to say, Gutless had far from an easy ride in Hook during his extremely limited time in the movie.

Most interestingly, Gutless was actually played by Glenn Close. Gutless only appeared in the movie for a brief second, yet the character remains one of the most memorable of the entire picture and has since gone on to become a bit of a cult favourite for Hook fans. And all along, behind the beard, it was Glenn Close.
