Plot: Time-traveling bounty hunters find a doomed race-car driver in the past and bring him to 2009 New York, where his mind will be replaced with that of a terminally ill billionaire.

David Bowie always gets such cool roles. Prestige was a fantastic film.

I'm also looking forward to Tom Waits role as The Devil in a bowler hat in the upcoming Gilliam movie Dr. Parnassus

Not a movie, but Zakk Wylde and Glenn Danzig's cameos in Aqua Teen Hunger Force are both hilarious.
