Uncut Gems star Julia Fox makes a blink-and-you'll-miss-it appearance at the beginning of Steven Soderbergh's new supernatural thriller Presence. In fact, she's the very first character we actually see in the movie.

At the start of the film, the real estate agent who will show the Payne family around their future home frantically arrives at the house, clearly running late and rushing to do last minute prep before the Paynes show up to view the abode.

This character, credited under the name Cece, is played by Fox, and yet because Presence is shot with a wide angle lens and mostly natural light, we don't get a particularly clear, close-up glimpse of the estate agent's face throughout the sequence.

And so, you couldn't be blamed for missing that it was Fox at all, or assuming that this small walk-on part was just played by any basically unknown actress. 

Somewhat amusingly, Fox signed up to appear in the film without even reading the script, such is her trust of Soderbergh.
