6 Movies Where Celebrities Star As Themselves, In Honor of ‘This is the End’

Movie #6 – Airplane!

Year – 1980

When is an actor playing themselves not an actor playing themselves? Well, first off I don’t know that we can technically call Kareem Abdul-Jabbar an “actor”. But he’s in a movie so it counts.

Here he plays Roger Murdock…or does he?

When a young boy (who may or may not like gladiator films) mistakes the co-pilot for the basketball legend Murdock denies being him. But when the child goes on to complain about Jabbar’s dedication on the court things take an ugly turn.
