Multiple-
Oscar-winning actor/director/producer, perhaps best known for
Dances With Wolves, for which he did all of those things. Quite popular during the late 1980s and early 1990s for starring in films such as
The Bodyguard,
The Untouchables,
Robin Hood Prince Of Thieves,
Bull Durham,
Field Of Dreams, and
Oliver Stone's
JFK.
In the mid-to-late 90's he hit a slump with lesser received movies, starting with
Waterworld, an
After the End Science Fiction blockbuster which was fraught with production problems and ended up being the most expensive movie ever made at its time, only to flop in the United States. However, it eventually made its money back worldwide.
The Postman was similarly received, although both films have been looked more fondly in later years.
After starring in
3000 Miles to Graceland, in the 00's and past, Costner has earned his reputation back with lower-key films such as heroic Coast Guard rescue film
The Guardian, the historical thriller
Thirteen Days, the
western Open Range and the cerebral serial killer drama
Mr Brooks.
Most recently starred in the 3-part miniseries
Hatfields & McCoys based on the
infamous backcountry feud on
The History Channel.
He is set to play
Superman's adopted father Jonathan Kent in
Man of Steel.
