Kurt Russell (Springfield, 1951) is an actor with a very recognizable bearing: his blue eyes express wisdom, bravado and recklessness; his vocal timbre is deep; his style is distant from both the Stanislavskij Method and mimesis; his machismo appears self-deprecating, even when the actor wears stage makeup for script reasons. Russell puts himself, body and soul into every role. Unpredictable and mocking even in his muscular display, no one’s heir, Russell is now perfect in antihero roles with that languor in his gaze and the square jaw like a comic book hero. The artistic partnership with director John Carpenter (1997: Escape from New York, The Thing, Big Trouble in Chinatown, Escape from Los Angeles) delivers the actor to the history of film genres. Among his other successes: The Computer in Sneakers, Silkwood, Tango & Cash, Killer Fire, Tombstone, Stargate, Critical Decision, Vanilla Sky, Dirty Investigations, Grindhouse, Fast & Furious 7, Bone Tomahawk e The Hateful Eight
