Samuel L. Jackson Biography

Samuel L. Jackson, widely acknowledged as one of Hollywood's busiest performers, is a superstar. His captivating performances in blockbusters like Pulp Fiction, for which he received Academy Award and Golden Globe nominations for Best Supporting Actor, have left a lasting impression on an American film. The horror movie Snakes on a Plane, directed by Peter Jackson, had a cult following and became an online sensation before it came out. With actress Eva Mendes and Scarlett Johansson, Jackson most recently portrayed the evil underworld boss "The Octopus" in Frank Miller's brutal action film The Spirit. In addition, Jackson recently acted alongside Bernie Mac in the comedic drama Soul Men and the serious thrillers Lakeview Terrace and Jumper. Jackson is an actor as well as a movie star, though. In the video, he still exudes the captivating stage presence that initially earned him plaudits in college and New York. It was his portrayal of a crack addict in Jungle Fever that earned him the Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival as well as the New York Film Critics Circle Award for Best Supporting Actor. He is well known for his tumultuous performances in The Long Kiss Goodnight, Do the Right Thing, Mo Better Blues, and Jackie Brown. Jackson began focusing on action roles, appearing in S.W.A.T., Shaft, and the 1995 global box office champ Die Hard with a Vengeance alongside Bruce Willis. He received more praise for his compelling work in Rules of Engagement, Changing Lanes, and A Time to Kill, which led to another Golden Globe nomination and an N.A.A.C.P. image award. Jackson participated in the cast of the illustrious Star Wars movie franchise and returned as the Jedi master "Mace Windu" in the most current trilogy. He continues to create a wide range of works, such as The Incredibles, which won a Disney Oscar, and In My Country, which is based on the internationally bestselling book by South African author Antije Krog. Jackson started acting in college, and while he was a student at Atlanta's Morehouse College, he actively participated in the Civil Rights movement, which stoked his interest in tackling racial issues. He was briefly suspended in 1969 for holding many trustees of the institution hostage during a sit-in to protest the lack of black trustees and a black studies program, including Martin Luther King, Sr.
