Since we're doing brazillian actors, here's my favorite of them all: Paulo Autran. (note: I'm not sure it's possible).
“Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.” — Nazi Reich Marshal Hermann Goering

City of God was a spectacular movie.

Actually, yours is quite easy (not that I knew it in advance or anything)...

Paulo Autran (Vertiges) Maria de Madeiros (Pulp Fiction) Samuel L. Jackson -- Mace Windu.

Whose motorcycle is this?
It's a chopper, baby.
Whose chopper is this?
It's Zed's.
Who's Zed?
Zed's dead, baby. Zed's dead.

Marco Aurélio (II) - I dug the name and put the qualifier on it to make it easier. Yes, it's possible.

Wow I caught Desperado on TV 2 days ago.

Xuxa Lopes (Amélia) Leslie Ryan (Cover Me) Paul Sorvino (Goodfellas) Samuel L Jackson.

Enough of those... Let's try and easy one for a change: Spencer Tracy.

Sorry, I was working on mine when the last one came up and also forgot about James Earl Jones having a cameo in Sneakers. Paul Reubens was already done, but I did one for Pee Wee Herman(rather than his other films)

Now, someone can do Paul Muni

Whoops.

Paul Muni (Last Angry Man) Billy Dee Williams

Fred Astaire (if that's used)

then

Bob Hope

That works. Even though mine is up first, I'll take your Fred Astaire challenge (Bob Hope was done a while ago) and then it's back to my George Reeves challenge.

Fred Astaire (The Amazing Dobermans) Billy Barty (Under the Rainbow) Carrie Fisher -- Leia

Back to George Reeves.

Kevin Sorbo (Kull the Conqueror) Tia Carrere (Lilo & Stitch) Ving Rhames (Pulp Fiction) Samuel L. Jackson

Another Kevin: (kind of) Kevyn Major Howard

Princess Leia: I happen to like nice men.

Well, Kevin Smith (Jay and Silent Bob) Carrie Fisher/Mark Hamill. I think he was done already anyway.

K. Gonna try this w/o IMDB:

Anybody up for Bruce Campbell?

Princess Leia: I happen to like nice men.
Han Solo: I'm a nice man.

I'll try w/o IMDb as well...

Bruce Campbell (Spider-Man) James Franco (City by the Sea) Robert DeNiro (Goodfellas) Samuel L. Jackson

How about Tim Meadows?

I was thinking of removing one step from Bruce: Bruce Campbell (Spider-Man) Kirsten Dunst (The Virgin Suicides) Hayden Christensen.

As for Tim Meadows:
Tim Meadows (Mean Girls) Lindsay Lohan (Freaky Friday) Jamie Lee Curtis (Trading Places) Dan Aykroyd (IJATTOD) Harrison Ford


Back to SNL: Jimmy Fallon.

Princess Leia: I happen to like nice men.
Han Solo: I'm a nice man.

Author

Forgot Hayden was in there.

Gonna have to use IMDb as I can't remember any of his movies.

Jimmy Fallon (Almost Famous) Anna Paquin (X-Men) Ian McKellan (LOTR) Christopher Lee -- Dooku

I was hoping that Eric Stoltz was in Almost Famous doing a cameo like he does in almost every Cameron Crowe film, but apparently not. That would have cut out a step as I could like him right to SLJ via Pulp Fiction. Oh well.

Another SNLer... Anthony Michael Hall.

Anyone for Will Ferrell; should be easy enough.

Or you can cut out some steps...

Anthony Michael Hall (Hail Caesar) Samuel L. Jackson

Will Ferrell (Jay and Silent Bob) Hamill/Fisher

Definitely easy enough.

It's impossible, since he was not an actor in any film, he was only part of stock footage. But may I suggest his nemesis, Michael Moore? And yes he did "act" in 2 films as I recall.
