1) Kathy Bates played a role in Allen's Midnight in Paris (2011)
2) Bates made her breakthrough with James Caan in Misery (1990)
3) Caan starred in Las Vegas, which featured a prominent role for Tom as well as cameos by Larry and Roger.

Someone will probably swoop in and take this from me though. It seems like if you can do it in two links, you've got it.

Not the fastest way, but maybe the most fun:

1) Sam was in Jurassic Park with Samuel L. Jackson (1993)
2) Jackson had a small part in Coming to America with Eddie Murphy (1988)
3) Eddie worked with Redd Foxx on Harlem Nights (1989)
4) Redd worked with Roger E. Mosley in a 1972 episode of Sanford and Son "Blood is Thicker than Junk!"

Sorry to go back, but there's a direct connection.

Tom Selleck was on Charlie's Angels as Jaclyn Smith's doctor boyfriend sans mustache!

Nice, Pahonu! Is that the first direct link so far?

I was clearly a bit hasty- are we meant to wait for confirmation before going to the next one?

BTW, nice choice on next actor, Styles. Looking forward to seeing the degrees there!
