I suspect Kristen Stewart might be an Aspie. Watch her in interviews, she seems quite distant, and doesn't make eye contact much. It would explain a lot about her.

Apparently, Darryl Hannah and Dan Ackroyd have it too. I'm not sure.

Can you think of any more?

I think Wikipedia has a list of people with Autism.

Vincent D'Nofrio has an official diagnosis, and so does Crispin Glover, I believe.

Dan Ackroyd was joking, I heard.

By the way, here's Vincent D'Onofrio talking about autism: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WvI6pMyAMHk

The audio was too poor quality for me to understand D'Onofrio. Too bad; I had really wanted to hear it.
