If you were like me and watched the oscars, you might have seen a sexy little compilation of some very famous people all picking up a phone and saying “hello.” This was Apple’s first television ad for their upcoming iPhone.

The video for this amazing ad is on the official Apple iPhone site.

A Macrumors forum user put together a list of the actors seen in the short clips, and I use this as reference for my list of actors together with still frames from the ad and of course from the original movies and shows they were taken from.
