VOTD: Kevin Smith Directs Stan Lee Directing Kevin Smith In 'Cameo School'
Let's be honest. When you think of cameos in movies today, you think of Stan Lee. The Marvel legend obviously didn't invent the cameo, but he's made it his own over the past twenty years in everything from the Marvel Cinematic Universe to the Spider-Man films, X-Men films and even Mallrats. That last one, more of an extended cameo, was directed by Kevin Smith who himself has had a good run with cameos both as an actor and director.
So what better combo than Lee and Smith to do a quick short called Cameo School which itself features some funny cameos? Smith directed Lee, who stars, but Smith also appears. Check it out below.
The video was created by Audi.
