We always knew Glenn Close was a master of disguise, but this is next level.
Fans had been disappointed by the lack of Close cameo since the new Cruella film came out in May.
According to a thread on Reddit, however, she could've been under our noses the whole time. We like your style, Glenn!
"Several articles stated the lack of cameo from Glenn Close in Cruella (2021) was a missed opportunity", user SenorThunderChunky posted. "Having just watched the film tonight, I think she actually did appear!"

The original poster also pointed out that this isn't the first time the actress has made a surprisingly super-subtle appearance in a film.

Glenn got dressed up in her best drag king clothes to play a male pirate in Steven Spielberg's Hook (1991).
We have to say, the likeness between the two 'male' characters is absolutely uncanny! Where's Glenn's Academy Award for best costume?
