Guillermo del Toro cameo in Barry season 4 episode 3 explained
Guillermo del Toro plays a crime lord called Toro in the latest episode of Barry. Toro is hired by NoHo Hank to carry out a hit on Barry Berkman while he’s in prison. He explains he can send two of his best men to do the job, but this conversation leads to a hilarious argument with Hank about a gadget podcast.
Since the success of Barry, star and creator Bill Hader has found himself regarded as one of the best directors emerging in the industry right now, and has made himself some valuable friends along the way.
Guillermo del Toro, a man responsible for some of the best movies of all time, is one of those friends. Apparently the legendary filmmaker was more than happy to help out with a little appearance in the hit comedy series. He didn’t make it easy for Hader, though, and decided to play lots of practical jokes on the actor-turned-director while they worked together.
