Fans are revisiting a "perfect comedy scene" from over 20 years ago, featuring a surprise appearance by a now-famous actor. The scene is from the cult classic Austin Powers Goldmember , the third installment of the spoof spy series starring Mike Myers in dual roles as both Austin Powers and villain Goldmember. This particular scene introduces singer Beyonce's breakout role as Foxy Cleopatra and also features an actor who recently starred in Netflix's crime drama series Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story.
An Instagram account posted a clip of the scene with the caption: "Who's someone that had a small role but they absolutely nailed it?" The actor in question is Nathan Lane, whose character is only listed in the credits as Mysterious Disco Man. In the scene, we hear Beyonce's voice saying the lines but Lane lip syncs to every moment perfectly, adding some emphatic gestures. How Poltergeist star Dominique Dunne’s 1982 murder is connected to the Menendez Brothers Netflix series sparks binge-watching frenzy among fans as they rave about 'strange' show The moment has been uploaded to YouTube, with one viewer commenting that they believe it is an example of the "perfect comedy scene.
" Fans were so impressed after revisiting the clip with one replying: "I honestly think the movie would have been better if Nathan lane played Foxy Cleopatra."

Some were even shocked to realize it was Lane in the role, with one confessing they were "today years old" when they found out.
Although his cameo wasn't a major breakthrough, Lane has become a household name, notably for voicing Timon in The Lion King and starring alongside Robin Williams in The Birdcage. He's also known for his recurring role as Pepper Saltzman on Modern Family. More recently, Lane impressed audiences as Teddy Dimas in Only Murders in the Building and portrayed Dominick Dunne in Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story.
