8 Huge Actors You Didn’t Notice As Extras In TV Shows

Many sitcoms like to include celebrity cameos, and Curb Your Enthusiasm is no exception. In fact, the setting in the world of TV makes it essential. Thanks to this, the show has seen some truly epic guest spots, with highlights including Shaquille O'Neal, Wanda Sykes and the previously mentioned Lin Manuel-Miranda. But there's one that you probably missed.

Whether you love him or hate him, there's no denying that Ben Affleck is a big Hollywood star. That's what makes this guest spot such a surprise, as he simply acts as an extra leaving an apartment store in the episode "Officer Krupke". That's it. He's on the screen for a second as he bolts out of the store. The man did more work as a Basketball player in Buffy The Vampire Slayer.

It's a hilarious moment for those who managed to catch it and played into the show's loving mockery of celebrity culture. The cameo came about when Ben Affleck visited the set, and Larry David asked if he'd like to play an extra in the episode. It just goes to show that you can never go wrong by asking.
