10 Celebs You Didn't Know Appeared In Futurama

10. David Cross As Yivo

After the Fox network decided to let the show die back in 2003, it truly seemed as though there would be no satisfying conclusion to Futurama's story. Thankfully, the show's ratings in syndication prompted a revival of sorts, coming in the form of four straight-to-DVD movies.

The second of these, The Beast with a Billion Backs, told the story of a tentacled being from the other side of a tear in the universe named Yivo. Using their billions and billions of tentacles, Yivo attached themselves to practically everyone in what was later revealed to be a mating process.

While Yivo's voice was familiar to many, there are undoubtedly many among us who simply didn't register its owner as none other than comedy legend David Cross, who is perhaps best known for his role in cult hit Arrested Development.

Cross' voice works so well in the world of Futurama that it's easy to overlook. After all, his comedic delivery is exactly in line with the show's humour. In fact, when you really think about it, it's almost unbelievable that he didn't have a role in the show before being cast as Yivo.
