Unfortunately, I couldn’t find clips where the actors appear onscreen at the same time for the last three. (I don’t think they even exist for the last two.)

    Six degrees, with assistance from the Internet, attempting to max out style points:

    Bruce Lee –> (enter the dragon) –> Jim Kelly –> (Black Belt Jones) –> Scatman Carothers –> (Transformers: The Movie) –> Judd Nelson –> (New Jack City) –> Mario Van Peebles –> (Posse) –> Reginald VelJohnson –> (Die Hard) –> Bruce Willis

    How about Bruce Lee -> (game of death) ->Kareem Abdul Jabar -> (Airplaine) -> Lloyd Bridges -> (airplane II) -> William Shatner -> (Loaded Weapon I) -> Samuel L. Jackson -> (Pulp Fiction) -> Bruce Willis?

    That’s only five, AND it uses William Shatner.

    Holy Cow! As long as TV shows count, I think I came up with a pretty good one.
    Bruce Lee > “Blondie” (TV show) > Pat Morita > “Cats and Mice” > Ron Jeremy > “Bikini Beach Race” (aka “The Sex Puppets” lol) > Dana Plato > “Lethal Cowboy” > Frank Stallone > “Hudson Hawk” > Bruce Willis
