Ummm... Bossk? Cronenberg directed A History of Violence, but didn't appear in it. Try again.

There seems to be some question as to who we are supposed to be linking to Star Wars, so I’ll do ‘em all:

David Cronenberg played a Gynecologist in the fly, which starred Jeff Goldblum, who was in Jurassic Park with Samuela L Jackson

Greg Nicotero was in From Dusk Till Dawn with Quentin Tarantino who was in Pulp Fiction with, you guessed it, Samuel L Jackson

Jerry Lewis was in Mr Saturday Night with Billy Crystal who was in Analyze this with Robert DeNiro who was in Jackie Brown, which also starred one Samuel L Jackson.

I’m beginning to think we should change the name of this game to ‘Six degrees of Samuel L Jackson’

Next up, a staple of science fiction TV and b-movies, Michael Rennie

Ramin Bahrani looks to be im-frickin-possible. His one acting credit, a film which he also wrote, directed, produced, edited, and served as casting director and title designer, is the only acting credit for the other 65 people in the cast.

Try again.
