One of my earliest science-fiction experiences was 1955’s Tarantula, which co-starred Leo G. Carroll and Mara Corday. Corday passed away earlier this year.
Clint Eastwood plays a very small role in Tarantula as a pilot. According to Wikipedia:
“A few years after her husband's death in 1974, Corday's old friend Eastwood offered her a chance to return to films with a role in his 1977 film The Gauntlet. She also had a brief but significant role in Sudden Impact (1983), where she played the waitress who dumped sugar into the coffee of Det. Harry Callahan in that film's iconic “Go ahead, make my day” sequence. She acted with Eastwood again in his 1989 film Pink Cadillac, as well as in her last film, 1990's The Rookie.”
