Line 89:
* Formula 1 driver Niki Lauda co-starred in the little-known [[Made for TV Movie]] ''[[Top Kids]]'' as a Doc Brown-esque guide to a teenage boy named Eric, played by ''[[Airplane!]]'' alum Rossie Harris (i.e. the boy who rubbed elbows with [[Kareem Abdul Jabbar]] and read ''Nun's Life'' magazine).
* Prior to Pacquiao, Gabriel "Flash" Elorde appeared in a number of films to capitalise on the success of his boxing career. He played [[As Himself]] in the autobiographical film ''The Flash Elorde Story'' in 1961 and alongside [[Fernando Poe Jr.]] in ''Mano-mano'' (1964). Elorde was also remembered for a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tw7XcmqnCOs San Miguel Beer commercial] where he appeared alongside notable Filipino celebrities Bert Marcelo and Rico J. Puno, uttering "... isang platitong mani!" (A plate of peanuts!).
* While [[Tony Hawk]] starred in his [[Tony Hawk's Pro Skater|eponymous video game series]] alongside his skater colleagues, he along with the rest of the Bones Brigade team starred in the direct-to-video movie ''[[The Search for Animal Chin]]'' about the titular Asian skateboarder who was said to have invented the sport [[In-Universe]].
* Fellow Bones Brigade alumni Rodney Mullen–of all people–starred in ''[[Ghost Recon|Ghost Recon Breakpoint]]'' as tech mogul Jace Skell. While Mullen has appeared in most entries of the ''[[Tony Hawk's Pro Skater]]'' series and served as a skating stunt double in films, ''Breakpoint'' is so far his only acting credit where he doesn't play [[As Himself]] or in a skateboarding-related role.
