Sam Elliott

August 9, 1944 (age 82) Sacramento, California, USA

Samuel Pack Elliott (born August 9, 1944) is an American actor. His rangy physique, thick horseshoe mustache, and deep, resonant voice (with a Western twang/drawl) match the iconic image of a cowboy or rancher, and he has often been cast in such roles.

His titles like A Star Is Born, Ghost Rider, and Hulk - his biggest roles first.
