Christopher Lloyd

In the piggy bank of Christopher Allen Lloyd - real film diamonds: "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest", "Who Framed Roger Rabbit", "Route 60". And the role of Dr. Emmett Brown in the bestseller Back to the Future is rightfully considered a star in the creative biography of the Hollywood master. In October 2018, the old-timer of the Hollywood Hills and the owner of three Emmy Awards will turn 80, but he is still in the ranks, pleases the millionth army of fans with his appearance on the screen.

Mom gave birth to Lloyd at 42. The son was the youngest of seven offspring of successful lawyer Samuel R. Lloyd and club singer Ruth. According to family legend, the star's ancestor on the mother's side was John Howland, who settled in New England in the 1600s. Howland's descendants are Franklin Roosevelt, George W. Bush and Benjamin Spock. And also - the best actor in American cinema history, the star of "Casablanca" Humphrey Bogart.

Apparently, the genes of the legendary Bogart woke up in Christopher Lloyd, because at 14, having studied at the elite Massachusetts School of Fessenden, the guy entered the stage of the summer theater and never left it.

While attending Staples High in Connecticut, Christopher played in amateur performances and dreamed of acting. After graduation, in 1958, the young man went to New York, where he honed his skills at the drama department of Lee Strasberg's student, Sanford Meisner. The teacher taught young actors the technique of playing according to the system of Konstantin Stanislavsky's own interpretation.

On the professional stage, 19-year-old Christopher Lloyd came out, replacing the sick actor of the main cast. In the early 1970s, the name of the artist did not leave the Broadway theater posters. Lloyd played on the stages of small (up to half a thousand spectators) theaters of the main characters in Shakespeare's plays "A Midsummer Night's Dream", "Macbeth" and "King Lear". Christopher Lloyd's repertoire soon grew to two hundred roles.

The characteristic appearance of the artist (a low, raspy voice, bulging eyes, a lean physique and a height of 1.85 meters) dictated the roles: Christopher was more often offered to transform into villains and villains than romantics and goodies. In 1973, the Broadway actor was awarded the prestigious Drama Desk Award for his mastery of the title role in the play Casper.

Cinematic biography of Christopher Lloyd began with triumph: in 1975 he starred in the cult film by Milos Forman, which won 5 Oscars. The drama One One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, starring Jack Nicholson and Danny DeVito, brought Lloyd recognition.

The successful debut prompted the actor to move to Los Angeles and dive into the Hollywood film industry. Film after film with the participation of the artist comes out on the screens. In films and TV shows, Christopher Lloyd, with his non-standard appearance, plays freaks of all stripes, from whom the audience is crazy. In 1978 the sitcom "Taxi" premiered. Christopher Lloyd was entrusted with a big role - the former hippie and priest, drug addict and taxi driver Jim Ignatowski. For his work in the comedy tape, the artist was twice summoned to the stage to receive an Emmy.

Until the mid-1980s, Christopher Lloyd appeared in a dozen films, honing his acting skills. And in 1985, deafening fame fell on him: in Robert Zemeckis's comedy project Back to the Future, Christopher embodied the image of the half-mad scientist Emmett Brown. Lloyd's eccentric hero invented the time machine by inadvertently revealing a secret to high school student Marty McFly. The latter was played by the brilliant Michael J. Fox.

The best-selling comedy book exceeded the budget twenty times, becoming the leader of the box office. In 1989 and 1990 sequels to the film were released. Kinosaga brought the creators a box-office gross of about $ 958 million, and Christopher Lloyd - the status of a world-class Hollywood star. From this moment on, the artist is offered only the roles of the first plan. In 1986, he appeared on the screen as Professor Beanz in the series Amazing Stories, and 2 years later he starred in Zemeckis's detective comedy Who Framed Roger Rabbit, playing the insidious judge Rock.

Towards the end of the 1980s, Christopher Lloyd became the proud owner of the third Emmy for his role as Professor Dimple in the multi-part drama Road to Avonlea. A new wave of audience love swept the Hollywood star after reincarnating as Uncle Fester in the black family comedy The Addams Family directed by Barry Sonnenfeld. The public liked the Infernal Family so much that in 1993 Sonnenfeld filmed a sequel entitled "The Values ​​of the Addams Family."

The detective retro comedy Murders on the Radio by producer George Lucas, in which Lloyd delighted fans in the guise of sound engineer Zoltan, also graced the star's filmography. Christopher Lloyd drew a line under the 1990s remake of the comedy My Favorite Martian, in which he appeared in tandem with Jeff Daniels, Daryl Hannah and British star Elizabeth Hurley.

The exception in the series of not very successful TV series of the 2000s, which closed after the first season, was the hit "Trassa 60". Bob Gale's black comedy brought in $ 25 million at the box office on a $ 7 million budget. You shouldn't be surprised, because the main characters were played by James Marsden, Gary Oldman, Michael J. Fox and Kurt Russell. In the stellar company, Christopher Lloyd's talent shone in every facet.

In 2010, the premiere of the black comedy Piranhas 3D, in which Lloyd appeared as Mr. Goodman, took place, and a year later the actor delighted in the bright role of a wizard in the TV series The Witches of Oz.

In 2013, the actor remembered his brilliant theatrical past and entered the Broadway stage, playing Azdak in the play "The Caucasian Chalk Circle" based on the novel by Berthold Brecht, but a year later, the audience again enjoyed playing the favorite in the cinema: Christopher Lloyd in the star company of Seth MacFarlane and Charlize Theron appeared in the Western comedy A Million Ways to Lose Your Head.

A minor, but, thanks to the talent of the master, a vivid role was played by Christopher Lloyd in the action prequel "Sin City - 2. A Woman to Kill for", which, despite the participation of stars Jessica Alba, Mickey Rourke and Bruce Willis, received restrained reviews ...

Christopher Lloyd has a rich filmography and an equally eventful personal life. The actor married four times, but all marriages ended in divorce. With his first wife, Catherine Boyd, he lived for 13 years and broke up in 1971. Three years later, he led the actress Kay Thornborg down the aisle, with whom he also spent a damn dozen years.

A year after his divorce from Kay, he married Carol Ann Vanek, stretching out with her for 3 years. Surprisingly, family life with his fourth wife, screenwriter Jane Walker Wood, also fell within the 13-year period. Christopher Lloyd has no children in any marriage. But the artist has a nephew, Sam Lloyd, a musician and actor who starred as lawyer Ted Buckland in the comedy series "Clinic".

Unsuccessful marriage unions did not discourage the Hollywood star from the habit of getting married, and he meets old age in a pair with real estate agent Lisa, with whom he became engaged in 2016. You can see Christopher Lloyd with the young beauty Lisa on his Instagram page.

Lloyd does not like to appear in public once again, therefore an indispensable clause in his contracts is exemption from the obligation to give interviews and participate in promotional companies. In his spare time, Lloyd goes fishing, listens to classical music or travels by bike.

Despite his advanced age, the star continues to act in films. In May 2017, the premiere of the third season of the fantastic thriller "12 Monkeys" took place, in which the actor was assigned the role of a missionary. And in April, Zach Braff's comedy Leaving Nicely was released - a remake of the 1979 comedy Leaving Nicely. Christopher Lloyd was entrusted with the role of Milton.

At the end of September 2017, the Hollywood star honored the Comic Con Russia festival in Moscow. Christopher Lloyd met with fans in the capital's Crocus Expo and answered questions from Russian users of the VKontakte social network. Fans were delighted to hear from Christopher about the imminent release of two new projects with his participation, including the thriller directed by Jenna Mattison "Sound".
