10 Actors You Didn't Know Played The Same Character In Different Movies

Jackie Brown is unquestionably Quentin Tarantino's most under-appreciated film, a star-studded and devilishly witty adaptation of Elmore Leonard's novel Rum Punch, and one which features a memorably against-type turn from Michael Keaton as ATF agent Ray Nicolette.

But while Jackie Brown was being shot, another Elmore Leonard novel was due to ramp up production - the Steven Soderbergh-directed Out of Sight.

Ray Nicolette also appeared in that novel, and so Soderbergh managed to convince Keaton to reprise the role for a brief, uncredited cameo in his movie.

Due to Miramax owning the screen rights to the character, however, it fell to Tarantino to insist that they didn't charge Universal, who distributed Out of Sight, a fee to use Nicolette.

As neat as a shared cinematic universe in which Tarantino and Soderbergh have both dabbled is, it's easily forgotten given how unassuming Keaton's tiny role is in Out of Sight.
