Stunt Casting	comment	Hiring of a big-name actor - or non-actor celebrity - to play a supporting role (or even a leading role, but usually the former). The idea is usually that the actor's fame will draw in viewers, as it normally would if you put them prominently on the advertising. What differs stunt casting from normal casting tends to be along the lines of: way out of the 'pay grade' of the work (a Hollywood megastar turns up as an Advertised Extra) gimmicky as advertisement for something else (members of a popular band play all of the supporting roles) exploitative of real-life situations (a cast member in a high-profile relationship and casting the other person for the tabloid appeal) inappropriate to the tone of the work (discarding the existing cast for Character Shilling of the guest star) desperation for attention (including other controversy for maximum exposure) This can overlap with Questionable Casting and Playing Against Type. Unlike The Cameo, stunt cast actors are not asked to come in and "play themselves" - they may well be great in the part, might even transform themselves for the role so much that you might not even recognize them until the credits, but, great as she is in the part, do you really think that reality show star got the role as the starship bridge lieutenant based on acting credentials alone? The term 'stunt casting' has a derogatory feel, but the term also encompasses many shrewd or artistic choices. If the studio heads are pushing for big names, this can be used as a compromise to allow the lead roles to be played by upcoming actors knowing there is at least one they can put on the poster. They can also give a feeling of legitimacy to something that would otherwise seem like a trashy genre work. Superman: The Movie (1978) struggled for producer support until Marlon Brando and Gene Hackman were on board. If the star is just that good at what they do, stunt casting can make a work much higher quality than it would be otherwise. Quick appearances can sometimes entice a busy actor to get a decent payout for only a little work or they are already a fan and want something that their kids might enjoy, allowing No Budget works to get some momentum. Amicus Productions' anthology horror films were based around the realization that if they built a picture out of short stories that didn't take more than a couple of days to shoot they could afford good/great actors with little hassle, which is the main reason why the films still have a cult fandom decades later. Seeing your favorite stars turn up in unexpected places can, well, just be plain fun - the scene-stealing of the One-Scene Wonder, the Genius Bonus when Role Association fleshes out a character's Hidden Depths, the authenticity of Cast the Expert, intrinsic subtext from Meta Casting and the parasocial pleasure of the Non-Actor Vehicle are all joys given to us by stunt casting. Conversely, this sometimes creates a paradox for actors who have become iconic in particular roles, they struggle to find roles or guest appearances because they are too recognizable and will get accused of this trope. In theatre productions that are especially Long-Runners, stunt casting is one way of keeping things fresh and interesting for potential audiences. The Broadway revival of Chicago has been especially egregious with this, cycling hundreds of celebrities of varying degrees of talent through the lead roles since it began its run in 1996. This can also work for documentaries with the casting of the narrator. It's also standard operating procedure in the U.K.-specific style of broad comic theatre known as Pantomime.note (which doesn't really expect you to be able to act, and if you can't do it well, you can always do it MORE!) See also Billing Displacement. If the stunt-casting is done in service of a film or other one-off project, expect the big-name actor in question to be Billed Above the Title. This happens so often in animation that it has its own trope: Celebrity Voice Actor.

To say this casting decision did not go over well with the fans is an understatement for multiple reasons and ended up being one of the main reasons why the Magical Change was not only canceled but put the Jewelpet franchise as a whole on an indefinite hiatus.

Movie was first announced, some fans criticized the choice of Chris Pratt as Mario (over longtime Mario voice Charles Martinet) as an example of this trope. These persisted even after the first teaser trailer was shown, where Pratt had only two brief lines in a regular voice. The criticisms only ebbed after the release of the movie, with critics admitting that Pratt provided a subdued but serviceable Brooklyn accent for Mario.

Among these performers were Art Carney, Shelley Winters, Van Johnson, Liberace, Michael Rennie, Tallulah Bankhead, Zsa Zsa Gabor, Otto Preminger... and many more.

Stunt Casting / int_21317f86	comment	Grindhouse parodies this: Planet Terror casts Bruce Willis in a seemingly prominent role at the start - only to disappear until the third act and be given top billing. This is to reference B-movies that would acquire a name star for a bit part, and hype them up as if they were a lead. Ironically Willis would go on to be stunt cast numerous times in his later career for numerous low-budget, straight-to-dvd movies such as Catch 44, The Assassination, The Prince, Precious Cargo and Marauders. In the fake trailer for Werewolf Women of the SS, there's Nicolas Cage appearing as Fu Manchu. The fake trailer for the film Don't has pop singer Katie Melua getting Death by Cameo. Death Proof's Jungle Julia is played by Sydney Tamiia Poitier just because she is the daughter of Sidney Poitier (and the middle name is removed in the credits so she is Sydney Poitier).

Since the show was cheap to produce, the executives greenlit a second season on the condition that they hired a famous actor to draw more attention to the series. Danny DeVito was introduced as Dennis and Sweet Dee's neglectful father Frank. It worked incredibly well, marking the point where the show began to Grow the Beard and become a hit with audiences.

Stunt Casting / int_261c8d3f	comment	The Simpsons features a "special guest star" — who isn't even always an actor — almost every episode nowadays, and of course most of the promo is devoted to their part, however small it might be. (Example: "Elementary School Musical" had a lot of emphasis placed on the appearances of three of the cast of Glee (Lea Michele, Cory Monteith and Amber Riley, if you're wondering) while - at least in the UK - pretty much ignoring the stars of Flight of the Conchords, whose roles were much more important to the episode.) Early on, episodes like "Homer at the Bat", "Marge vs. the Monorail" and "Krusty Gets Kancelled" were criticized for being too "gimmicky" for using this trope (Marge's VA, Julie Kavner, sat out from the latter episode because of this).

Jackie reportedly appeared in it only because he owed a favor to the lead actor, Jimmy Wang Yu (who was rumored to have ties to organized crime syndicates). Jackie's done it more than once; he appeared in Stephen Chow's King Of Comedy as a nameless stuntman, and in Sammo Hung's Martial Law as a prep, the latter done to return the favor for Hung playing the put-upon biker in Mr. Nice Guy. He and Arnold Schwarzenegger also did a co-cameo in the movie Viy 2: Journey to China (a.k.a Iron Mask) and, despite their relatively short screen time, were used liberally in the marketing.

Stunt Casting / int_30a248e	comment	Friday the 13th (1980): Penelope Milford was courted for the role of Brenda (as she had just been nominated for an Oscar) purely because they hoped she could draw audiences. She eventually backed out, finding the script too violent. They also wanted a name to play Mrs. Voorhees. Estelle Parsons was the original actress cast, but she too dropped out. Her replacement was Betsy Palmer, who was best known for hosting a game show I've Got A Secret. At the time her casting caused a scandal, and Gene Siskel encouraged angry fans to send her hate mail over it. But over time Mrs Voorhees became her most famous role, and she embraced it. Ironically enough, they didn't cast Harry Crosby as Bill because he was the son of Bing Crosby, as they didn't find that out until after he was signed on. Ironic because the film was created specifically to piggyback off Halloween's success.

However after his attempt to break into film petered out he found that getting a lead role on a new TV show was nearly impossible.

When famous actors such as Robin Williams, Vincent D'Onofrio and Steve Buscemi appeared, they were given real acting challenges to work with. Williams' performance as a man whose wife has just been murdered stands as the first major subversion of his persona and a real glimpse of dramatic depth. Although played straight with Robin Williams initially- the series was suffering low ratings and the network was hoping a big name actor would boost ratings. This did work, but less so for the casting and more for William's brilliant and unexpected dramatic performance.

Stunt Casting / int_4660bd1d	comment	Broadway industry gossip in spring 2017 was that Kinky Boots was on its last legs financially with a closing announcement imminent. To tide audiences over until its original stars returned to close the show, Brendon Urie (of Panic! at the Disco, hot off of their biggest album in a decade) was announced to be playing Charlie Price for a limited run that summer. He was sensational, but more importantly, his presence did gangbusters for the show's grosses. The role of Charlie has since been stunt-cast a few more times, with the likes of David Cook from American Idol and Tyler Glenn of Neon Trees. When the show closes in April 2019, it will have run almost a full two years longer than industry gossip theorized.

As a result, this one included a lot more nostalgia competitors than normal - Trish Stratus, Lita, Torrie Wilson, Molly Holly, Jacqueline, Michelle McCool, Kelly Kelly (although she was a last minute replacement for the injured Paige) and even Vickie Guerrero! This was thought to be in an attempt to re-energize the crowd (which worked judging from the reactions).

However, after she had finished recording all her lines, the execs decided to replace her in favor of the pop star Tiffany, in an attempt to try an attract a younger audience. The move caused a major backlash, and casting director Andrea Romano asked to have her name removed from the credits both in protest for the decision and to avoid hate mail. To make matters worse, by the time the movie was finally released, Tiffany's 15 Minutes of Fame had long since ended.

Nigel Havers (he of Chariots of Fire and Dont Wait Up) did the flipside of this also in 2009, appearing as a conman called Lewis, who had a brief affair with Ken's wife Deirdre. Honor Blackman made a couple of appearances playing one of Rita's old friends from her acting days. Who then invites Rita and Norris to a weekend party that turns out to be a swingers' event. Girls Aloud member Sarah Harding in 2015, playing Robert Preston's wife while he was having an affair with Tracy Barlow.

An example of the "old friend from a previous series" type had Tom Wopat, John Schneider's co-star from The Dukes of Hazzard, appear in a plot-significant one-off (initiating the political-campaign story arc for Jonathan) that also played off their old show. Other random stunt castings were used for major villains, including James Marsters as Brainiac, Brian Austin Green as Metallo, and so on. Lois & Clark did this too, most notably bringing back the original Jimmy Olsen from The Adventuresof Superman, Jack Larson, to play Jimmy after he'd been hit by an aging ray.

When Josh Groban left the role of Pierre in July 2017, he was succeeded by Okiriete â€œOakâ€� Onaodowan, who was well-regarded coming off his turn in Hamilton but lacked the star power to draw in casual fans. After only six weeks of Onaodowanâ€™s run, the producers announced that he would be replaced by Mandy Patinkin. The backlash over the casting shakeup (and the Unfortunate Implications of a black actor in an ostensibly â€œrace-blindâ€� role being abruptly recast with a white one) caused Patinkin to withdraw out of respect for Onaodowan, leaving the show without a long-term plan for Pierre and no ready solution to its poor box office; it ended up folding at the end of the summer.

At the same time, this particular production was Recut to only 90 minutes, so to maximize Hasselhoff's stage time, most of the romantic subplot involving Leo and Ulla was cut...which made his betrayal of Max harder to swallow. Later in the run, Tony Danza came in to play Max (he was previously one of Nathan Lane's replacements in the Broadway production). Hasselhoff had previously become a bit infamous for playing the title roles in the musical Jekyll & Hyde on Broadway, as one of those performances was filmed and released on video and DVD. That production frequently stunt cast the lead role; Sebastian Bach played him for a while as well.

Stunt Casting / int_b8e5dfd9	comment	The original dub of Disco Elysium is full of this (in The Final Cut, most were recast): Notoriously, Will Menaker, Matt Christman, Felix Beiderman and Virgil Texas from the controversial left podcast Chapo Trap House all show up as Siileng/Fuck The World, Titus Hardie, Scab Leader/Kourtenaer/Rosemary and the Smoker on the Balcony respectively. Will joked on the show that they were surprised the game turned out to be good because they'd assumed it was going to be 'a multiple choice adventure about depression' (which the game is... kind of). According to the producers, they hadn't intended to stunt-cast the game, and approached the Chapo guys because they couldn't find actors with American accents... but they appear prominently in the marketing material, suggesting they knew exactly what they were doing. Overlaps with Playing with Character Type, as, while none of the hosts are playing exactly the kind of characters you'd expect, familiarity with their comic personas will bring an extra sizzle to their scenes. In particular, Sociopathic Soldier Kourtenaer develops an ineffectual failson vibe once you recognize he's voiced by the guy whose career is built on skewering hypermasculinity-poisoned oafs. Dasha Nekrasova from the even more controversial left podcast Red Scare (perhaps best known for the viral video of her obliterating an InfoWars reporter with high level Communist rhetoric while dressed in a Sailor Fuku) plays Klassje (Miss Oranje Disco Dancer). Dasha's reputation as being a 'bad girl' unpopular even amongst Chapo listeners for her inflammatory opinions underscores Klaasje's untrustworthiness. British Sea Power contribute various songs to the game's soundtrack. Mikee W. Goodman (Ancient Lizard Brain/Limbic System/Spinal Cord/Roy/The Deserter/Idiot Doom Spiral) is best known as the lead singer of the prog metal band SikTh. One of the band's gimmicks is that Mikee often sings in character voices, which the game also gives him the opportunity to do during the karaoke scene. Dot Major from indie rock band London Grammar plays obnoxious speed-abusing scallie kid Cuno, as well as Harry's former partner, Jean. In The Final Cut, he appears as Noid instead. Measurehead is played by Casablancan rapper Dizzy Dros, who featured in promo videos to appeal to his fanbase.

Blurr is voiced by the original Blurr's voice actor John Moschitta (the world's fastest-talking man), Master Yoketron is voiced by George Takei, and Wreck-Gar by "Weird Al" Yankovic (who did the original Wreck-Gar's theme song). An interview has Marty Isenberg stating that hiring Weird Al was just an idea he had after Eric Idle (see below) wasn't available that ended up working out. Transformers: The Movie took this to an extreme in '86. Almost all the new characters had big name voice actors. Leonard Nimoy was Galvatron, Eric Idle was Wreck-Gar, Robert Stack was Ultra Magnus, Judd Nelson was Hot Rod, etc. Most impressive of all, Orson Welles (in his last performance) was absolutely AWESOME as Unicron. None of them stayed on for the TV series though. Transformers: Prime got in on this with casting Dwayne Johnson for Cliffjumper's brief appearance in the pilot (before he's killed by Starscream and in a Whole Episode Flashback, he's replaced with Billy Brown) and the aforementioned George Takei as Alpha Trion.

Stunt Casting / int_c43df4d8	comment	Stunt Cast actors in revival Doctor Who are not usually heavyweight actors, but are well-known soap actors, comedians, quiz show hosts and other more minor celebrities. Oh, and Sir Derek Jacobi. Actor and comedian Simon Pegg as the Editor, an employee of the Mighty Jagrafess, in "The Long Game". Catherine Tate as Donna Noble in "The Runaway Bride" was initial meant to be this on a one-off basis. However, she made such a positive impression that she ended up coming back as a series regular a year later. Kylie Minogue was the guest companion in the 2007 Christmas Special "Voyage of the Damned" is probably the most extreme example of stunt-casting in Doctor Who history. To be fair, it worked; that episode still holds the record for the most viewers in the history of New Who! James Bond actor Timothy Dalton (as the Time Lord President Rassilon), and veteran actress Claire Bloom appear in "The End of Time". Sci-fi vets Mark Sheppard and father William Morgan Sheppard played young and old versions of former FBI agent Canton Everett Delaware III in "The Impossible Astronaut"/"Day of the Moon". Series 7 has had several notable faces (possibly to tie in with the series' 50th anniversary), including Ben Browder from Farscape in "A Town Called Mercy", Mark Williams from the Harry Potter movies in "Dinosaurs on a Spaceship" and "The Power of Three", Jemma Redgrave in "The Power of Three" and a number of episodes hence, the voice of Ian McKellen in "The Snowmen", David Warner in "Cold War", Diana Rigg and her daughter Rachael Stirling in "The Crimson Horror", Warwick Davis in "Nightmare in Silver", and John Hurt as a previously unknown regeneration of the Doctor in the 50th anniversary special itself "The Day of the Doctor". "Mummy on the Orient Express": Frank Skinner, known primary as a comedian, with little prior experience of acting and none of dramatic acting, plays the major guest role of Perkins. Nobody has ever been happier about being stunt-cast then Skinner, a long-time fan of Doctor Who, was in this episode. The 2014 Christmas episode "Last Christmas" featured Simon Pegg's frequent co-star Nick Frost as Santa Claus. This was the reason why Nardole was included in series 10 as a full-time companion. Matt Lucas of Little Britain and Alice in Wonderland (2010) fame first appeared in "The Husbands of River Song" as a supporting character. A big fan of the show, Lucas begged Steven Moffat to bring him back in any shape or form, so Moffat decided to make him a regular as he was surprised that someone who lived in LA would want to work on Doctor Who. Series 11 had a specially-made trailer highlighting its guest stars, who included Alan Cumming, Mark Addy and Chris Noth (who returned in the 2021 New Year's special), not to mention noted game show host Bradley Walsh as companion Graham. The trend continued in series 12, opening with Stephen Fry and Lenny Henry (both in 100% serious roles) and shortly after Goran ViÅ¡njić as Nikola Tesla. Comedian John Bishop as companion Dan Lewis for Series 13 and the subsequent specials. The 60th anniversary specials not only brought back David Tennant and Catherine Tate in such a way to be stuntcasting. (The Doctor regenerated with a previous Doctor's face, he wasn't playing the same Doctor.) The third special, "The Giggle", featured Neil Patrick Harris as the Toymaker, and he was heavily featured in the trailers.

Stunt Casting / int_ccf875f7	comment	Criminal Minds sometimes casts unsubs with this method. Most, however, are either unrecognizable (James Van Der Beek, Jamie Kennedy) or extremely creepy (Keith Carradine, Jason Alexander). Often, the recognition of the unsubs (generally played by supremely benign actors, when this trope is in play) only serves to make the roles creepier, or more tragic. James Van Der Beek's character is a good example of that, as is Frankie Muniz's. In general, stunt casting in a legal or cop drama always brings Narrowed It Down to the Guy I Recognize into play (whether straight or subverted). CM usually averts this by having the unsub commit his crimes onscreen in full view of the audience. "Paradise", in turn is an exception to this rule, where we don't see the unsub actually commit a crime until after they find out who it is...thus playing Narrowed straight (Wil Wheaton played the unsub in the ep.) The fans have become critical of this method of casting guest stars as unsubs, even when they are good, because it had been used too often during a weak seventh season. They feel that guest-star unsubs are showcased to the expense of the original cast and story suspense (by showing the unsubs's from the very beginning of the episode, rather than keeping them obscured). By giving more time to the unsubs and their evil deeds, it makes the profiler characters look like stupid slow-pokes, and possibly glorifying the serial killers (which is NOT the point of the show).

She had been retired for years and only agreed to do it because Walt Disney (a huge fan) tracked her down to her nursing home and begged her to be in the film.

Surprisingly enough, she ended up performing better than expected, with her background in gymnastics and cheerleading allowing her to pull off some She-Fu moves.

Stunt Casting / int_e21c3da	comment	A similar subversion in LFO's music video for "Girl on TV". As the song is about falling in love with a female celebrity, it would seem to be the case that Jennifer Love Hewitt (then a Teen Idol for Party of Five and I Know What You Did Last Summer) plays the girl in the video. However, she was actually the celebrity the song was written about - and was dating one of the members.

Joel Grey was cast in a relatively small but plot-pivotal role as Not-So-Harmless Villain Doc in a few episodes in the second half of Season Five. Much later, they attempted to cast Miss Spears again in a one-off villain role in "First Date". The part eventually went to slightly less famous fellow pop singer Ashanti.

Stunt Casting / int_eacd48d4	comment	Notoriously, Will Menaker, Matt Christman, Felix Beiderman and Virgil Texas from the controversial left podcast Chapo Trap House all show up as Siileng/Fuck The World, Titus Hardie, Scab Leader/Kourtenaer/Rosemary and the Smoker on the Balcony respectively. Will joked on the show that they were surprised the game turned out to be good because they'd assumed it was going to be 'a multiple choice adventure about depression' (which the game is... kind of). According to the producers, they hadn't intended to stunt-cast the game, and approached the Chapo guys because they couldn't find actors with American accents... but they appear prominently in the marketing material, suggesting they knew exactly what they were doing. Overlaps with Playing with Character Type, as, while none of the hosts are playing exactly the kind of characters you'd expect, familiarity with their comic personas will bring an extra sizzle to their scenes. In particular, Sociopathic Soldier Kourtenaer develops an ineffectual failson vibe once you recognize he's voiced by the guy whose career is built on skewering hypermasculinity-poisoned oafs.

One episode during the Buu saga features Majin Buu befriending and helping a blind boy who was a one shot character. Said one-shot was voiced by Megumi Hayashibara.note In case you're wondering, in the Kai cut he's instead voice by Houko Kuwashima.

He was cast because he was an American Idol runner-up, a huge anime fan, and wanted a shot at voice acting in one. When it came time to record Season 2, he was set to reprise his role (which was bigger this time), and recorded some of the episodes, but was replaced at the last minute with Vic Mignogna, supposedly because he spilled the beans on Twitter before the dub was announced.

Stunt Casting / int_f1da64b5	comment	For the role of Arwen in The Lord of the Rings trilogy, producers wanted to cast a Hollywood star, as the cast was made up of unknowns and character actors. Uma Thurman was the original choice but had to drop out due to her pregnancy, so Liv Tyler played it. Marketing for the first film hyped up Arwen as if she were a major protagonist, and Liv is billed third on the poster. After the first film proved such a success, this was de-emphasized, as it was obvious the film could stand on its own.

Stunt Casting / int_f2041376	comment	Charmed (1998) became known for this in its later seasons, often attracting name actors to play Phoebe's love interests. Nick Lachey, at the height of his fame from marriage to Jessica Simpson and the subsequent reality series. He appears at the start of Season 7 for an arc as Leslie, a replacement advice columnist for Phoebe. Among her love interests, he tends to be the least positively received. The same season brought in Kerr Smith from Dawson's Creek as FBI Agent Kyle Brody, who became a love interest for Paige rather than Phoebe. Tellingly, he'd actually turned down the role of Leslie. Living TV in the UK were particularly fond of hyping up his appearances. However, he was actually relevant to the arc, and the character was merely divisive rather than hated. Charisma Carpenter appears for three episodes in the same season, playing a demonic seer called Kyra in an obvious nod to her role in Angel. The episode in which she played her most prominent role was even advertised with the slogan Charmed, with Charisma. Her character however proved to be quite popular with fans, who lamented that she was killed off. Another well-received example was Billy Zane appearing for three episodes as a demon-turned-human called Drake. His Large Ham performance, creative use of powers and chemistry with Alyssa Milano also made him popular with fans. The final stunt cast Phoebe love interest in the series was Jason Lewis, of Sex and the City. The episode "Malice in Wonderland" was even done in the style of the latter, and his character Dex was featured heavily in the promotional materials. Although he ended up marrying her briefly, his arc ended after six episodes. The eighth season also cast Kaley Cuoco, fresh off the sitcom 8 Simple Rules in the role of Billie Jenkins; an apprentice witch to the sisters, who was also the result of the network demanding new faces and someone to fill the Ms. Fanservice requirements the three lead actresses were getting sick of doing. Despite hopes that she could headline a spin-off, Billie was negatively received and even got Demoted to Extra in the continuation comics.

Stunt Casting / int_f6a54e75	comment	Kingdom Hearts has its main character voiced by Haley Joel Osment in the English version, with other supporting characters and villains played by people like Billy Zane (Ansem), Christopher Lee (DiZ), and Leonard Nimoy (Xenahort). The Final Fantasy cast in the first game, the first time the characters got voiced, has recognisable TV actors and popstars playing them all. The performances range all the way from Questionable Casting nonsense (Lance Bass is horribly miscast as Sephiroth, but does the best job he can under the circumstances) all the way up to establishing the definitive voice actor for the character (Steve Burton stayed with Cloud even after II recast most of the characters, and played him in English for the majority of his later appearances until Final Fantasy VII Remake).

Stunt Casting / int_f6fe1bfc	comment	Sabrina the Teenage Witch: Melissa Joan Hart is a huge WWE fan, so many notable stars of the 90s were cast for guest spots. These include Kevin Nash, Billy Gunn and Chyna (though she didn't appear until she'd left the company in the 2000s). The Season 4 premiere gets a Britney Spears appearance to cross promote the film Melissa Joan Hart was starring in, which was titled Drive Me Crazy after Britney's song. Melissa also appeared in the video, which plays in The Stinger. Coolio has a cameo As Himself in a Season 1 episode where the aunts bring a poster of him to life to ask where Salem went. A Season 3 episode has Sabrina and Valerie sneaking into a club to see N Sync. The Backstreet Boys have a cameo in an episode with a talent contest where they only get their singing talent from drinking a potion Sabrina left lying around. A Season 2 episode features Ru Paul playing a Witches Council judge who later disguises himself as a hairdresser to teach Sabrina a lesson. Notable because the Witches Council judges had been played by the same two actors for the first three seasons. Sabrina conjures up Tara Lipinski for no real reason in an episode where she's trying to make everyone jealous of her. The seventh season gave Sabrina a job working for an entertainment magazine, allowing for guest appearances from pop stars such as Daniel Bedingfield, Ashanti, Avril Lavigne etc.
