20 Things You Didn't Know About Zodiac
14. A Real-Life Zodiac Survivor Makes A Cameo In The Movie
Surprisingly, of Zodiac's two confirmed surviving victims, one actually makes a fleeting cameo appearance in the film, though you'd never know it just by looking.
At around the 100-minute mark, as Dave Toschi (Mark Ruffalo) expresses frustration to Captain Lee (Dermot Mulroney) over his failure to conclusively pin down a suspect, a man can be seen walking between them in the background.
The man is none other than Bryan C. Hartnell, the survivor of the Lake Berryessa murder which claimed the life of his girlfriend Cecelia Shepard.
Hartnell also served as a consultant on the film, and the woman walking alongside him is in fact his real life wife.
