Stan Lee Cameos

Although cameos from Robert Downey Jr in The Incredible Hulk and Samuel L Jackson in Iron Man have stolen the headlines, true to form Stan Lee pops once again for his traditional cameo in films from the Marvel Universe - though after studying the list, you have to wonder who said no to X-Men 2?

X-Men
Lee appears as a customer at a hotdog stand on the beach when Senator Kelly emerges naked onshore after escaping from Magneto.

Spider-Man
Stan appeared during Spider-Man's first battle with the Green Goblin, pulling a little girl away from falling debris.

Daredevil
As a child, Matt Murdock stops Lee from crossing the street and getting hit by a car.

Hulk
Lee appears walking alongside former TV-series Hulk Lou Ferrigno in an early scene, both as security guards at Bruce Banner's lab. It was his first speaking role in a film based on one of his characters.

Spider-Man 2
Lee again pulls an innocent person away from danger during Spider-Man's first battle with Doctor Octopus.

Fantastic Four
Lee appears for the first time as a character from the comics, in a role credited as Willie Lumpkin, the mail carrier who greets the Fantastic Four as they enter the Baxter Building.

X-Men: The Last Stand
Lee and Chris Claremont appear as two of Jean Grey's neighbors in the opening scenes set 20 years ago. Lee, credited as "Waterhose man," is watering the lawn when Jean telekinetically redirects the water from the hose into the air.

Spider-Man 3
Lee appears in a credited role as "Man in Times Square". He stands next to Peter Parker, both of them reading a news bulletin, and commenting to Peter that, "You know, I guess one person can make a difference". He then says his well-known phrase, "'Nuff said."

Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer
Lee appears as himself at Reed Richards' and Susan Storm's first wedding, being turned away by a security guard for not being on the guest list. In Fantastic Four Annual #3 (1965), in which the couple married, Lee and Jack Kirby are similarly turned away.

Iron Man
Lee (credited as "Himself") appears at a gala cavorting with three blond women, where Tony Stark mistakes him for Hugh Hefner.[35]

Incredible Hulk
Lee appears as a hapless citizen who accidentally ingests some of Bruce Banner's blood, leading to the discovery of Dr. Banner's location in a soft drink bottling plant in Brazil.
