The brilliant funnyman had a cameo in this legendary director's 1988 film, but don't look for his name in the credits.
The Big Picture Robin Williams is warmly regarded as one of the most versatile and brilliant performers of all time. His work in classic comedies and soul-wrenching dramas has been celebrated for decades. Similarly, director Terry Gilliam is regarded as one of the most inventive directors of the past 50 years, creating spectacles that seize the imagination and shatter the mind.
The Adventures of Baron Munchausen was no exception, coming to fruition at a tumultuous time in the history of Columbia Pictures. Oral deals about the film’s budget and distribution fell by the wayside, resulting in a convoluted release that caused the film to be a financial bomb, recouping hardly a fifth of its budget.
Williams was already of fan of Gilliam’s outlandish films and knew working with the director would give him the creative freedom to stretch his talents to their farthest. He boarded the production as the King of the Moon, but his managers wouldn’t allow his name or likeness used to market the film. In fact, his name does not appear anywhere in the credits, though any fan of his would recognize his face immediately when he appears. Especially as, when it does, it is gigantic.
