In 1982, Bridges starred in one of his better-known roles in the science fiction film Tron , in which he played Kevin Flynn, a video game programmer. Critic Roger Ebert praised the film describing it as "brilliant" and comparing it to The Empire Strikes Back (1980), writing, "This movie is machine to dazzle and delight us...[and] in a technical way maybe it's breaking ground for a generation of movies in which computer-generated universes will be the background for mind-generated stories about emotion-generated personalities". [19] Also in 1982 he voiced Prince Lir in the animated fantasy film The Last Unicorn alongside Alan Arkin, Mia Farrow, and Angela Lansbury [20] and starred in the romantic comedy Kiss Me Goodbye directed by Robert Mulligan, acting alongside Sally Field. [21]

In 1984, he starred in the John Carpenter directed science fiction romance Starman playing an alien opposite Karen Allen. For his performance he was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actor.

In 1990 he reunited with Cybill Shepard for Peter Bogdanovich's Texasville , a sequel to the 1971 film The Last Picture Show , which Bridges had starred in. The film also starred Cloris Leachman, Eileen Brennan, and Randy Quaid. The film was based on the 1987 novel of the same name by Larry McMurtry. Bridges said of making the film, "[It] was like constantly being hit over the head by deja vu. Every day I'd grab Peter and place him in some corner on the street where we were shooting and I'd say, 'Now 20 years ago what did you say to me as I was standing right here?'". [28] The following year he starred in Terry Gilliam's fantasy comedy-drama The Fisher King (1991) opposite Robin Williams, Mercedes Ruehl and Amanda Plummer. In the film he plays a misanthropic radio shock jock who befriends a homeless person on the quest to find love and the Holy Grail.

[30] In 1992 he produced and starred as a man released from prison in the Martin Bel directed drama American Heart earning the Independent Spirit Award for Best Male Lead. [31] Film critic Janet Maslin of The New York Times praised Bridges' performance writing, "It's time to recognize Mr. Bridges as the most underappreciated great actor of his generation...he has managed to transform himself to an astonishing degree." [32]

In 1993 he starred in the Peter Weir directed drama Fearless (1993) alongside Isabella Rossellini, John Turturro, and Rosie Perez. His role is thought by some critics to be one of his best performances. [33] One critic dubbed it a masterpiece; [34] Pauline Kael wrote that he "may be the most natural and least self-conscious screen actor that has ever lived". [35] In 1994, he starred as Lt. Jimmy Dove in the action film Blown Away, opposite Tommy Lee Jones and Forest Whitaker. His real-life father Lloyd Bridges was also featured in the film, playing the uncle of Bridges' character. The film was not a financial success, managing to recoup $30 million of its $50 million budget at the box office, with its release a few weeks after another explosive-themed film, Speed . On July 11, 1994, Bridges received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for his contributions to the motion picture industry. The star is located at 7065 Hollywood Boulevard. [36] [37] Bridges portrayed James Butler "Wild Bill" Hickok in the western film Wild Bill (1995) acting with Ellen Burstyn, John Hurt and Bruce Dern.

Howard in the horse racing drama film Seabiscuit co-starring with Tobey Maguire and Chris Cooper. The film was based on the 1999 book of the same name by Laura Hillenbrand. [42] The film earned an Academy Award for Best Picture nomination. [43] He also starred in the 2005 Terry Gilliam fantasy film film Tideland co-starring with Janet McTeer and Jennifer Tilly. That was Bridges' second collaboration with Gilliam, the first being 1991's The Fisher King alongside Robin Williams. [44]

In 2013, he starred alongside Ryan Reynolds in the action comedy R.I.P.D. which was a box office and critical failure. [55] [56] That same year Bridges wrote The Dude and the Zen Master with Bernie Glassman. [57] Bridges found himself at a party with Glassman and Ram Dass and their conversation led to discussing the parallels between "The Dude" from The Big Lebowski and Zen Buddhism. [58] The book was formed from what has been described as a "transcript of a five-day 'hang' on a Montana ranch." [59] The following year he produced and starred as the title role in dystopian drama The Giver and acted in the action fantasy film Seventh Son , which were both critically panned and the latter a box office flop. [60] [61] [62] In 2015 Bridges voiced The Aviator in the animated film The Little Prince based on the 1943 children's novella of the same name.

Interests

Music

Referring to his career as an actor and his passion for music, Bridges says, "I dug what an actor did, but it took me a while to feel it, to truly appreciate the craft and the preparation. Plus, I was still playing music a lot, and I guess I had a hard time choosing: was I an actor or a musician, or could I be both?" [72] Bridges studied piano at a young age, strongly encouraged by his mother. [73] Before his first lead role as an actor he already sold two songs to the acclaimed musician and composer Quincy Jones, who used his "Lost in Space" for the soundtrack of the 1970 film John and Mary and let Bridges contribute the vocals. [74] While working on the 1980 film Heaven's Gate , he often played guitar with his co-star, singer-songwriter Kris Kristofferson, between takes. [75] His character in Crazy Heart, Bad Blake, was later based partly on Kristofferson. In 1982, he voiced the character of Prince Lír in the animated film The Last Unicorn, and in that role sang on two songs, including a duet with Mia Farrow. He released his debut album Be Here Soon on January 1, 2000. In 2005, Bridges, known as "The Dude" in the film The Big Lebowski , showed up at a Lebowski Fest in Los Angeles singing and playing the film's theme song written by Bob Dylan, "Man in Me".

On January 15, 2010, Bridges performed the song "I Don't Know" from Crazy Heart on The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien . In the film The Contender , in which he co-starred, Bridges recorded a version of Johnny Cash's standard "Ring of Fire" with Kim Carnes that played over the pivotal opening credits. In February 2010, he was among the nearly 80 musicians to sing on the charity-single remake of We Are the World . [76] On October 24, 2010, Bridges appeared at Neil Young's annual Bridge School Benefit concert and played a set with singer-songwriter Neko Case. On April 19, 2011, Country Music Television announced that Bridges had signed a recording contract with Blue Note Records/EMI Music Group. He worked with producer T Bone Burnett and released his second album, Jeff Bridges, on August 16, 2011. [77] On November 5, 2011, Bridges played Austin City Limits in support of this album. [78]

In 2015, he sang on the album Strangers Again, performing a duet with Judy Collins of the song "Make Our Garden Grow" from Candide by Leonard Bernstein. The same year, he released an ambient/spoken-word album entitled Sleeping Tapes . [79] All proceeds from the album go directly to Bridges' charity No Kid Hungry. [80] Bridges plays many guitars, including the Gretsch Chet Atkins Country Gentlemen Model G6122-19. In 2020, Bridges partnered with Breedlove Guitars to release his signature Oregon Concerto Bourbon CE with "All In This Together" scrawled across the fretboard. [73]

Photography

Bridges has been an amateur photographer since high school. He began taking photographs on film sets during Starman at the suggestion of co-star Karen Allen in 1984, with his favorite camera, a Widelux F8 that his wife bought him. [81] [82] He published many of these photographs online and in a 2003 book entitled Pictures: Photographs by Jeff Bridges. [83] [84] In 2013, he received an Infinity Award for his photos from the International Center of Photography in New York. [85] A follow-up book, Jeff Bridges: Pictures Volume Two, was published in 2019. [85] [86]

Marriage and family

Bridges married Susan Geston in 1977. [87] [88] [89] [90] They had met while filming Rancho Deluxe (1975), on a ranch where Geston had been working as a waitress. [91] [92] [93] [10] [94] They have three daughters, born in 1981, 1983 and 1985. [95] [96]

Religious beliefs

Bridges has studied Buddhism and has described himself as "a Buddhistly bent guy". [97] On most days, he meditates for half an hour before beginning work on a film set. [97]

Health issues

On October 19, 2020, Bridges announced that he had been diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin lymphoma and has gone through chemotherapy. [98] On September 12, 2021, Bridges announced that his cancer was in remission: "My cancer is in remission — the 9×12 [inch; 230 mm × 300 mm] mass has shrunk down to the size of a marble." [99] [100] Bridges also announced he contracted COVID-19 while in treatment and which he fought for almost five weeks. [99]

He described the long process of recovery from both diseases, relating how large his tumor had grown, yet giving him no indication it was there. After five weeks in the hospital with Covid, he had months of recuperation at home before he could function again. [101]

Philanthropy

In 1984, Bridges and other entertainment industry leaders founded the End Hunger Network aimed at encouraging, stimulating and supporting action to end childhood hunger. [102] He supported President Obama's initiative to End Childhood Hunger by 2015. In November 2010, Bridges became spokesman for the No Kid Hungry campaign of the organization Share our Strength. [103] Its goal is to present and undertake a state-by-state strategy to end childhood hunger in the United States by 2015.
