Chicago Actors Are All Over The Globe

By Jayne Rutledge


There are many Chicago actors living all over this wonderful planet. These people are very talented and most of them were raised in very poor households. They had to fight their way to the top since many people with money tried to keep them on the bottom. You will also find that these individuals are very down to Earth.

If a person enjoys the show "Saturday Night Live" then they would remember the talented Bill Murray being part of the cast. He really came onto the scene after Chevy Chase resigned from the show. Bill was very funny in most of his sketches and he learned his acting skills from many theatre groups in Illinois. Everyone loves his performance in the movie "Caddyshack."

Jennifer Beals comes from a very mixed background since her mother is Caucasian and her father was black. This young woman struggled all of her life since she had a diverse history. She finally became famous when she starred in a movie named "Flashdance." After the film became successful Ms. Beals went on to other projects.

There is no other actor on Earth like the incredible Harrison Ford. This man will make major dollars for any studio whenever his name is featured on a film. Americans have come to know this windy city resident over the past few decades. They will see his "Indiana Jones" movies over and over no matter how silly the plot may be.

Harrison was always proud of his Illinois heritage and he tells everyone about his struggles while growing up. He almost gave up on acting when a producer stated that he really had no talent. This made him more determined than ever to be the best thespian around.

Walt Disney is from this particular area and he introduced the entire world to a character called Mickey Mouse. He was very proud of the work that he did for Hollywood and everyone really appreciated his input on many films. He has a long list of films and also created Walt Disney World.

Jennifer Hudson started off as a shy fat girl in this popular town. She had always dreamed about becoming a singer and sang for her church every weekend. In a few years Ms. Hudson became successful after people watched her on the classic television show "American Idol." She has now become a very pretty slender woman who has gained great respect from her fans. Unfortunately a crazy killer also killed her family several years ago.

John Belushi was one of the most famous Chicago actors living in New York City. He was featured on "Saturday Night Live" for many years and had a great movie career going for him. Unfortunately he could not stay away from drugs and alcohol like many young performers in America. His life was cut short after a drug overdose. John's life was similar to the late great Chris Farley who also died from drugs. There are other great performers such as Joe Mantegna, Mandy Patinkin, Tom Berenger, the late Michael Clarke Duncan and Robin Williams who share this terrific area. All of these people have something wonderful to offer this world.
