But you know what might be the easiest way for an actor to not be recognised in a movie? Just straight-up cover their face with something - anything, in fact.

Bill Murray makes a cameo appearance in Dumb and Dumber To as Harry's (Jeff Daniels) roommate Ice Pick, who makes crystal meth in their apartment and is never seen out of his distinctive yellow hazmat suit.

More to the point, Ice Pick's face is covered at all times by a gas mask, and even when he speaks his two brief slivers of dialogue, the mask muffles enough of his voice that it's not easily recognisable as Murray's.

With Murray being a long-time collaborator of the Farrelly brothers, it's fair to assume he played the part as a favour to his pals, with Peter Farrelly later explaining that they thought it would be hilarious to bring in an A-list actor to play a role where you can't even see their face.
