Yes, this is the story. Unfortunately the OP's post was not even a little bit clear on what the story was. He was accidentally bumped up to #4 on the credits, just because his original link got so many page views. Then redditors decided they wanted to bump him above Tom Cruise to #1 on the credits.

I think it's pretty funny. Goes from just posting a link to his IMDb page as an extra to top credit in the Jack Reacher movie. Hopefully this somehow springboards his career.
