If you were asked to name the most Joseph Gordon-Levitt type movie that doesn't star Joseph Gordon-Levitt, you'd probably think of Knives Out. As it turns out, the campy whodunnit from Rian Johnson actually does feature a cameo from the incredibly actorly actor.

Speaking with Us Weekly, Gordon-Levitt explained that he appeared as the voice of Detective Hardrock in a TV show being watched by Ana de Armas' character at the start of the film.

In fact, the actor claims he has appeared in every single Johnson film thus far. 

"Funnily enough, and folks may or may not know this, I've actually gotten to cameo in every single one of Rian Johnson's films, from Brick to The Brothers Bloom and even Star Wars: The Last Jedi," he said. "It's a tradition that I hope we get to keep up!"

There will be plenty more opportunities. As previously reported, Netflix recently shelled out a rumoured $400 million USD for the rights to two Knives Out sequels from Johnson.
