Jack Black in DOS Can't Post

We all knew about Stephen Colbert's cameo in Desolation of Smaug (and I love that we get to see an interview with him in Appendices part 9) but did everyone know about Jack Black's cameo in DOS? I certainly didn't until I watched the Appendices.

I took some screenshots to share.






And this is what I assume Jack Black's cameo character was. Kind of hard to tell since he's in so much makeup, but it does look vaguely like him.
There is no specific voice over or narration saying "This is Jack Black" so we're kind of left to make an educated guess.

Jack Black was one of the leads in Peter Jackson's King Kong...

Which actor in the shot [In reply to] Can't Post

Are you suggesting is Jack Black? because none of them look like even a remote possibility of being him IMO.

Re: Which actor in the shot [In reply to] Can't Post

It would clearly be the actor on the right. He has Jack Black's eyes.
Though there is no spoken confirmation of this, the sequence of scenes/shots in the documentary on Bree would lead one to believe that this is Jack Black's cameo. However, it is a possibility that he simply visited the set.

I'll try to edit out this segment of the appendices and put it on Youtube. Then you can watch and judge for yourself.

I've seen the appendices [In reply to] Can't Post

And the film but I'm 99.9% positive this under jack black. I think he just visited the set, unless there's another cameo we dont know about

There is a shot of that bald one eyed man in the outside comfronting Gandalf? [In reply to] Can't Post

Its very brief but he seems to be infront of someone who is a threat for him judging by his face anda then you can see Gandalf´s hat a bit infront of him
