Cameos can be easy to miss at times, and we can’t blame ourselves for the same, everything happens so fast that it is understandable and especially if they all occurred in an animated film!

Most of us probably aren’t even aware of the presence of the cameos or plenty of animators, creators, celebrities and other real people (many who come from behind the scenes) have been turned into characters in some of our favorite animated films.

Thanks to some Redditors who have pointed the real-people cameos most of us might have missed in animated films.

1.  Seth Rogen In “Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse”

Seth Rogen is one of the most well-known comedic talents working in the industry.

Redditor u/MattyMarsh pointed out that Seth “has somewhat of a cameo appearance in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse” on a moving billboard in an ad for a fake movie, Hold Your Horses: Riding High in the Saddle.
Writer/ Producer Phil Lord and producer Chris Miller explained the same. Lord said, “Hold Your Horses is actually a sequel to an earlier Seth Rogen jocker film”. And Miller added, “It’s about an unlikely jockey  just trying to make his way in the world of tiny people.”  Rogen loved it and even tweeted about it saying, “No matter what dimension you’re in, I’ll be there making movies. Go check out Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, which was made by some of my wildly talented friends who I’m jealous of.”
