Legendary filmmaker Quentin Tarantino loves nothing more than to cameo in his own movies, and he can be seen onscreen in Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, Django Unchained, and others.

But did you know that he also likes to cameo in the posters for his own movies?

The poster for his most recent release - 2019's Once Upon A Time In Hollywood - is a rather busy one, with a lot of bright colours and dozens of characters all packed together in a tight space. It's tough to spot, but one of these characters is actually Tarantino himself, who is sat behind a camera as though he's directing a scene.

Here's a closer look.

Tarantino's poster cameo doesn't appear to have any significant relation to the plot of the film, but hell, if any of us were respected, successful film directors, we'd probably all want to cameo in as many places as possible too!
