Serena Williams pops up on a screen as a digital personal trainer in the gym of the mansion and asks if "anyone wants to do a session, because I'm on the clock" while Blanc is having a conversation with someone in there.
On a side note..Why did I think Angela Lansbury died like 15 years ago?
Yeah i have that with a lot of older celebs i think they passed years ago only to see them pop up in something recent!

That happens a lot. There is also the weird realization that a lot of older celebs and actors and actresses are still alive, but simply not working anymore, and yet it may be another decade or two before they actually die -- at which time, we are suprised to realize "they were still alive?"
Angela though sadly passed only a few months ago so im guessing this was her last screen presence?

At the end of the end credits, both Angela Lansbury and Stephen Sondheim are memoralized in an RIP manner. It would be worth a zip over to Imdb to see if this was their last credit. Of course, Sondheim wasn't an actor; he was a...what?...Broadway composer? Lyricist? And he wrote a movie whodunnit called "The Last of Sheilla"(1973) with pal Anthony Perkins, that rather inspires the set up for Glass Onion.
He did say he spotted Serena. I probably didn't need to say anything, but that's just how I am :(

I'm the one. I DID spot Serena(that was a funny gag in the movie -- she's "on the clock" -- on call -- to give a fitness training session to the rich guests via video -- but I probably shouldn't have left her off my list. It confused things.
I very much appreciate learning where EVERYBODY was --I simply wasn't concentrating on that Zoom call in the bathtub at the beginning.
Also: I looked at it again and sure enough that is Ethan Hawke spraying the anti-COVID spray in the guest's mouths BUT -- he looks quite a bit different than usual -- less hollow-faced, skinny and unkempt -- so I don't think I would have recognized him even if I knew Ethan Hawke was in the movie.
Thanks to all for all the names....it allowed me to enjoy the film a second time with no frustration about cameos.

I don't know how much of him you've seen lately, but he's been looking like that all the time the last few years.

Eye of the beholder, I suppose. I am thinking specifically about how he looked in The Magnificent Seven remake, but that was almost 7 years ago, so...
In general, I've always pictured Ethan Hawke as hollow-faced, skinny, and unkempt. Its as if he rather wanted to make sure that he didn't look like a traditional leading man. In THIS role, he seemed to be playing the kind of well-tailored, well-groomed assistant that a very rich man would hire. More handsome than usual and it seemed a little heavier with age.
Anyway, no biggie. I didn't recognize him, but that's just me...
