Happy Birthday Jeff Goldblum! His career started as an unnamed thug in Death Wish (1974). Jeff’s first genre film was 1974’s Invasion of the Body Snatchers as Jack Bellicec. He was also part of the band as New Jersey dressed as a cowboy, The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension (1984). He played gambler, Calvin “Slick” Stanhope in the Western, Silverado (1985) directed by Lawrence Kasdan. One of his well known roles was as scientist, Seth Brundle, in David Cronenberg’s remake The Fly (1986). He won the Saturn Award for Best Actor. In 1988, Jeff starred as psychic Nick Deezy in Vibes and as the blue-furred alien in the sci fi comedy, Earth Girls Are Easy. He had another career defining role as Dr. Ian Malcolm in Jurassic Park (1993). There was another big blockbuster with Independence Day (1996).
He returned as Ian Malcolm in The Lost World: Jurassic Park (1997). He voiced Aaron in the animated movie The Prince of Egypt (1998). In 2004, he began working with Wes Anderson in The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou. Jeff played Deputy Vilmos Kovacs in Wes Anderson’s The Grand Budapest Hotel (2014). He returned as David Levinson in Independence Day: Resurgence (2016) which is a fair sequel for me. In Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017), he had a cameo as the Grandmaster, entering the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Then, he went in full Grandmaster mode in Thor: Ragnarok. This year, he focused Duke in Wes Anderson’s animated Isle of Dogs. In Hotel Artemis, he played Orian Franklin also known as Niagara. Jeff also had a cameo as Dr. Ian Malcolm in Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. Happy Birthday Jeff Goldblum!
