His father a soldier, he describes himself as coming from a long line of blue-collar workers. With some stage performances at High School it wasn’t until he moved to California in 1984 and won a starring role, opposite Cybill Shepherd in the TV series, Moonlighting that he established himself as a comedic actor. He was catapulted to movie star status with his role of John McClane in 1988’s Die Hard and sequels Die Hard 2 in 1990 and Die Hard with a Vengeance in 1995 … they grossed $700m internationally. Whilst he did appear in a number of box office flops, his appearance in Pulp Fiction gave his career a boost and he starred in The Fifth Element (1997), Armageddon (1998), The Sixth Sense (1999), SinCity (2005) and Red (2010) winning two Emmy Awards, a Golden Globe and four Saturn Awards along the way.

A couple of his quotes: ‘I’m just a regular guy who has had an incredibly blessed life’ and ‘ You can’t undo the past … but you can certainly not repeat it.’
