#19: Best Friend Perks
Hollywood friendships can lead to some pretty unique arrangements, like the one between Héctor Elizondo and Garry Marshall. These two pals were so close that Garry had a special clause written into his film contracts that allowed him to cast Héctor in every movie he made. And he did just that, with Héctor appearing in every single one of Garry’s films, from Pretty Woman to The Princess Diaries.
Some people would see this as a form of nepotism or favoritism, but we think it’s pretty sweet. Of course, Héctor is more than just a friendly face – he’s a skilled performer who’s brought his unique energy to every role he’s played. So the next time you watch one of Garry Marshall’s films, just remember – that familiar face might just be a testament to a true Hollywood friendship.
