Unexpected Cameo in ‘Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves’
The most surprising moment in Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves comes with the unexpected appearance of Bradley Cooper in a brief role as Marlamin, ex-husband of barbarian Holga (Michelle Rodriguez). Despite the star-studded main cast, Cooper’s cameo as a soft-spoken halfling was a wild surprise not featured in any promotional materials.
Cooper’s Journey to the Film
Cooper’s involvement in the film can be traced back to his previous collaboration with co-director John Francis Daley on the Fox sitcom Kitchen Confidential. Their prior relationship led to Cooper agreeing to join the cast after watching a rough cut of the movie, adding a larger-than-life touch to the character of Marlamin.
Behind the Scenes of the Cameo
Cooper was on set for just one day, without filming scenes opposite Rodriguez, who learned about his appearance after the fact. Despite the surprise, she praised Cooper as a cool dude in real life. Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves is now playing in theaters.
