It's a way to keep costs down while still having "famous" people in your movie.

It should come as no surprise, then, that the practice of "boarding," where a star parachutes into a high-profile movie for a few days or a few weeks and all of his or her scenes are blocked out for a quick shoot, is on the rise. For producers increasingly under pressure to keep star salaries in check, boarding often means scoring an A-lister without having to pay his or her full quote. And big actors have become more willing to take non-starring roles -- as long as they can be whisked in and out, leaving time for more movies.
