We recently looked over at another site and saw a similar list that really disappointed us. What this list represents are actors and directors that strayed away from the genre before we were ready and hope to one day see again.
5. Bill Paxton
Career Highlights
Mortuary
The Terminator
Aliens
Near Dark
The Vagrant
Brain Dead
Predator 2
Club Dread
Frailty
Simply put, Bill Paxton is awesome, now let me go into detail. Bill Paxton began his career in 1974 working as a set dresser on various films until he received his first feature role almost a decade later. Over the course of his career he been under the direction of John Hughes, Walter Hill, Ron Howard, Jan De Bont, Sam Raimi, Robert Rodriguez, Kathryn Bigelow, and in 4 James Cameron pictures (who could choose to work with anyone in hollywood). Bill Paxton has also moved behind the camera where he has produced various films and in 2001 made his directorial debut with and stars in the impressive taught thriller Frailty, which features strong performances by Mathew McConaughey, Powers Boothe with Paxton included. Currently he stars in the hit HBO series Big Love in the central role of polygamist Bill Henrickson; a role he has received 3 golden Globe nominations since it's inception in 2006. In summation, there is a reason he is one of only two actors that have been killed by a Terminator, Alien, and a Predator. Again, simply put... he is awesome.
