For some inexplicable reason noted jazz pianist and multi- Grammy award winner Herbie Hancock plays the defence minister. His other acting credits are rather sparse.
2017 is the year of musicians taking bizarre film role. Paul McCartney turned up in the last Pirates of the Caribbean movie! John Lennon still refuses to see it.

@fan_of_films Herbie Hancock? Wow! Maybe Busson casted him because he's a fan of his music.

@Moonglum9 Did you know that Tyler Perry played the head of Starfleet Academy in Star Trek (2009)?

@Moonglum9 Another bit of offbeat Luc Besson casting: Tiny Lister, who played the President of the Federated States, was at one time a professional wrestler.

I'm a bit ashamed to say that I do remember him from when I used to watch wrestling when I was younger. I think he went by the name Zeus. I also remember him from also being cast as the president in The Fifth Element.

@Moonglum9 I thought that he was great! Do you know if he was in any other movies?

I've seen him in quite a few things over the years. Little Nicky comes to mind. He had a fairly large part in that movie.

If you've watched the movie, you understand why Herbie Hancock hasn't been in more movies. :)

@Nexus71 Hello to you too! I watched the movie several times and it's not one of Mr. Busson's better efforts. And I was surprised at how good Rhianna was!

@AlienFanatic: Maybe Chris Tucker should have played the Defense Minister!

LOL your mouth to god's ear. I really thought that Ruby Rhod was an insane, over-the-top character but one I greatly enjoyed. I wouldn't have minded that choice one bit. Poor Herbie could barely get his lines out.

In fact Besson also cast trip-hop pioneer Tricky as Oldman's assistant in the 5th Element.

@Nexus71 I thought that guy looked familiar! I always thought he was kind of sexy.
