14 Stars Who Made Surprising Appearances On The Twilight Zone!
They all went on to do such great things! Do you know which celebrities appeared on the Twilight Zone?
3. Mikey Rooney
(appeared in “The Last Night Of A Jockey”)
Mickey Rooney is a legendary actor. He transcended the eras of vaudeville, silent film, television, and movies. So it should come as no surprise that Rod Serling wrote an entire episode with Rooney as the only actor on screen.

2. William Shatner
(appeared in “Nick of Time” and “Nightmare at 20,000 Feet”)
“Nightmare at 20,000 Feet” might be one of the most iconic episodes of The Twilight Zone. Within the confines of an airplane cabin, William Shatner sees a gremlin on the wing trying to take down the craft. “There’s something on the wing!” But does anybody believe him?
1. Burt Reynolds
(appeared in “The Bard”)
Perhaps the most surprising cameo is Burt Reynold’s role in “The Bard.” He plays a young actor trying to bring life to a script written through mysterious methods. What’s astonishing is how clearly Reynolds is supposed to be a fictionalized version of Marlon Brando! They dress him up like Brando and even say that he was “brilliant in Street Car Named Desire.”
