Run with a minor actor (5)
I believe the answer is:
extra
I believe this clue is a double definition.
'run' is the first definition.
(cricket run)
'minor actor' is the second definition.
(as in film extras)
'with a' is the link.
(Other definitions for extra that I've seen before include "There's more" , "Additional or supplementary" , "someone in a crowd scene" , "Crowd-scene actor" , "Bit actor in film" .)
