Steven Seagal (Actor) .. Casey Ryback
Born: April 10, 1951 in Lansing, Michigan
Best Known For: Under Siege.
Early-life: Steven Frederic Seagal was born on April 10, 1952, in Lansing, Michigan. He's the son of a medical technician and a maths teacher. He began studying karate at a young age, later moving on to aikido. He moved to Japan to further his martial arts training in the early 1970s. He was instructing wealthy clients in Los Angeles when he came to the attention of Michael Ovitz, one of the most powerful men in Hollywood. Ovitz thought he would be perfect as the next big action star and kick-started Seagal's movie career.
Career: Seagal worked as a martial arts supervisor on several films before making his leading man debut in 1988's Nico, aka Above the Law, and followed it up with a string of relatively low-budget action thrillers, including Hard to Kill, Marked for Death and Out for Justice. In 1992, Under Siege became one of his biggest hits, and gave him enough authority to star in and direct 1994 thriller, On Deadly Ground. Despite being savaged by the critics, he pressed on with Under Siege 2, Executive Decision, The Glimmer Man, The Patriot, Exit Wounds and Half Past Dead. An accomplished musician, he's a member of the band Thunderbox and can be seen in reality show Steven Seagal: Lawman as a real-life deputy sheriff. After a number of direct-to-video releases, he returned to the big screen in 2010 with the film Machete.
Quote: "Try to find the path of least resistance and use it without harming others. Live with integrity and morality, not only with people but with all beings."
Tommy Lee Jones (Actor) .. William Strannix
Born: September 15, 1946 in San Saba, Texas
Best Known For: The Men in Black movies and his Oscar-winning role in The Fugitive.
Early-life: Born in San Saba, Texas, on September 15, 1946. His father worked in the oil industry, his mother spent time as a police officer, teacher and beauty salon owner. They married and divorced twice. After graduating from high school, he attended Harvard College on a scholarship, where one of his room-mates was future American vice-president Al Gore. He was also a star American Football player for the university team.
Career: Jones landed an agent and a role in a Broadway production of A Patriot for Me just 10 days after graduating from Harvard in 1969. A year later he made his film debut in Love Story, based on Erich Segal's novel of the same name. Segal claimed he based the lead character of Oliver (played by Ryan O'Neal) on Jones and Gore. Jones then spent four years in soap opera One Life to Live. The film Coal Miner's Daughter made critics sit up and notice him in 1980. Acclaimed performances in Lonesome Dove, The Fugitive, JFK and Men in Black followed. Other well-received projects include No Country for Old Men, In the Valley of Elah (for which he received an Oscar nomination), Lincolm and The Homesman.

His most notable role in the 1980s was playing an assassin in the hugely popular Lethal Weapon (1987). In 1988, he was seriously injured in a motorcycle accident. Years later, a psychiatrist suspected the injury had caused him to speak and act impulsively. In 1997, Busey had surgery to remove a golf-ball-sized cancerous tumour from his sinus cavity.
