History Creator / BillyBobThornton

He's also released solo albums in the AlternativeCountry genre and is the singer and drummer for the RockAndRoll band the Boxmasters. Initially, the Boxmasters played a GenreMashup of {{Rockabilly}} and Merseybeat, as Thornton wanted to see what would happen if a band played MediaNotes/TheBritishInvasion style Rock in a Hillbilly style (in fact, two of their albums were split between a disc of original songs and a CoverAlbum packaged with the main album). However, following a controversial radio appearance and performance in Canada that received mixed reactions, the Boxmasters went on hiatus and returned in what was more of a Country Rock style.

His break came in 1992 with ''One False Move'', which he co-wrote and starred in. But he became an international name after directing, writing and starring in the dark and critically acclaimed ''Film/SlingBlade'', for which he won an UsefulNotes/AcademyAward for Best Adapted Screenplay and was nominated for Best Actor. Since then his career has been both varied and successful, with Thornton picking up awards left and right as if he found them in his bathroom. Critics considers him an "anti-film star" who approaches his roles like a character actor, and they're not wrong. Thornton is regularly willing to change his appearance for a project.
