The Guest Cast

The Guest cast refers to actors who appear for only limited episodes or scenes in a television program or movie, typically as minor supporting characters. Guest cast members should not be confused with regular cast members who appear regularly and play central or recurring roles within that production or film.

Guest cast members can add dimension and variety to a story by introducing new plotlines, conflicts or perspectives into it. Furthermore, their presence may draw in viewers who are fans of them from past works they may have participated in.
