    I didn’t know that the three musketeers were really Quigon Gin, the Sheriff of Nottingham from prince of thieves, Anakin Skywalker and Matt Berry.

          fair enough, the prequels peaked with the pod race, it’s a natural decision to call it there at the top

      Funny thing is some looked familiar and when I looked them up, all three of the older ones were big names that I didn’t realize were in that movie because I watched it before I knew them as actors.

      From left to right, Keifer Sutherland, Charlie Sheen, Chris O’Donnel, Oliver Platt. And of course the legendary Tim Curry as Cardinal Richelieu, though I at least already knew that one.

      Trying to figure out if the cast would have been considered stacked at the time or if the three main ones all just happened to become big names after. Keifer and Charlie were already established (eg they had already done “A Few Good Men” and “Platoon”, respectively), but Oliver was still on the rise (most notable role I see for him prior to this was as the villain’s assistant in Beethoven).
