Christian Slater

Hollywood actors are also people - they can make mistakes, make the wrong choice and get out of the way. But everyone has a second chance - it took Christian Slater, who managed to overcome alcohol and drug addiction in time, as well as return to the FilmOimp after years of silence.

The biography of Christian Michael Leonard Slater began on August 18, 1969 in New York City. The boy was born into the creative family of actor Michael Hawkins and casting director Mary Jo Slater, so his further professional choice was not a surprise to anyone.

When the child was 7 years old, the parents separated - Christian stayed with his mother and took her last name. Later, in 1983, the woman had another son, named Ryan - he, like his older brother, found himself in the acting.

The future artist in his early youth began to pave the way to the big cinema, from the age of 8 playing in television series and productions on Broadway.

Christian played his first episodic role in a feature film in 1981 (he was 12 years old) - a young actor appeared as a boy Billy in one of the film adaptations of Sherlock Holmes. The next, more serious work appeared in the young man after 4 years - he starred in the action film "The Legend of Billie Jean", the main role in which played his namesake Helen Slater.

A really good offer was waiting for Christian ahead - a year later he took part in the historical thriller of the European production "The Name of the Rose", based on the cult work of the writer Umberto Eco.

The film tells the story of a serial killer wielding in a medieval Italian monastery. 17-year-old Slater played the role of a former assistant to an experienced detective and part-time monk, played by Sean Connery. Despite the fact that the author of the novel did not approve of the film adaptation, film critics and audiences greeted it positively. Also in the film played Valentina Vargas, Helmut Kvaltinger and Ilya Baskin.

Christian's next role, which began to mature noticeably, appeared in 1988. She became diametrically opposed to his previous work - this time the guy played the daredevil Jay Dee in the crime thriller "Lethal Attraction". His filming companions were Winona Ryder and Shannen Doherty.

In the new decade, Slater joined the central roles of DJ Mark Hunter in the musical drama "Add to the Volume" and Will Scarlett in the action movie "Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves." Both paintings were warmly received by critics and expanded the filmography of the budding artist with diverse works.

Christian's next work earned mixed fame - the actor earned a nomination for the anti-award "Golden Raspberry" for the worst supporting actor, taking part in the crime drama "Gangsters". Later, Slater was a little rehabilitated after winning the category "Most Wanted Man" in 1992 from the MTV channel, starring in the comedy "Kaffs" with Milla Jovovich.

A year later, the actor received a lucrative offer to play a central role in Tony Scott's thriller about a marginal couple "True Love". Christian played Clarence Worley, who fell in love with a call girl Alabama (played by Patricia Arquette) and stuck to a criminal history with pimps, murders and escapes.

1994 brought Slater one of the most significant and bright roles in his already saturated filmography - he played a reporter named Mellow, interviewing a real vampire in the stylish horror film "Interview with the Vampire." The film was based on the novel by the writer Ann Rice and earned more than $200 million at the box office. Two other central roles were played by famous Hollywood sex symbols Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise.

After the success of the last picture, the popular actor almost disappeared from the screens, performing minor roles in low-budget feature films and TV series. During this period, he became addicted to drugs and alcohol, which almost cost Christian a career.

The 2010s changed the situation, proving that Slater is still full of creative enthusiasm and ready to surprise his fans. He took part in two parts of Lars von Trier's controversial film "Nymphomaniac" and in 2015 joined the cast of the crime series "Mr. Robot". Christian even won a Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actor for the character of the same name. The title role of sociophobe programmer Elliot Alderson was played by Rami Malek. Filming of the project continues now.

The actor boasts a busy personal life - he was married twice and dated several Hollywood sex symbols.

On the set of "Death Attraction" Slater met a young Winona Ryder and immediately fell in love with her. The pair did not meet for long, but in his later interviews Chris recalled the actress with trepidation and admitted that he still can not forget her.

After that, the artist met with his colleague on the shop Christina Applegate, and then with the fateful Patricia Arquette, partner in the film "True Love".

The artist's first wife was reporter Ryan Haddon. Their wedding took place in 2000, at that time the newlyweds already had a common son named Jayden. A year later, Christian and Ryan had another child - a girl Eliana. However, this did not help to strengthen the marriage - the couple divorced in 2006.

The actor's next romance, which began in 2010. His choice was Brittany Lopez, who is 17 years younger than Slater. The couple do not have common children yet.

The actor is inactive on social networks, he rarely posts personal photos and information about himself on the Internet, so it is difficult to say what Christian lives in 2019.

It is only clear that he continues to work in the TV series "Mr. Robot" and is open to new creative proposals.
