Biografie

Brian Manion Dennehy (9 juli 1938 – 15 april 2020) was een Amerikaanse acteur van film, toneel en televisie. Zijn doorbraakrol in films was die van de overijverige sheriff Will Teasle in First Blood (1982). Typisch een karakteracteur, toonde Dennehy veelzijdigheid in uiteenlopende en vaak complexe rollen, variërend van schurkachtig (zoals een corrupte sheriff in de western Silverado uit 1985) tot deugdzaam (zoals een welwillende buitenaardse leider in Cocoon, ook uitgebracht in 1985). Andere opmerkelijke films met Dennehy zijn onder meer Gorky Park (1983), Never Cry Wolf (1983), Legal Eagles (1986), F/X (1986), Tommy Boy (1995), Romeo + Juliet (1996) en Ratatouille (2007).

Dennehy was een prominente figuur in de theaterwereld (vooral in Chicago) en won twee Tony Awards voor Beste Hoofdrolspeler, voor Death of a Salesman (1999) en Long Day's Journey into Night (2003). Hij speelde in talrijke televisiefilms en miniseries, kreeg zes Emmy Award-nominaties en had gedenkwaardige bijrollen en gastrollen in vele series, waaronder Just Shoot Me, The Good Wife en The Blacklist.
