Paul Hogan
(Actor)
.. Crocodile Dundee
Born:
October 08, 1939
Birthplace: Lightning Ridge, New South Wales, Australia
Birthplace: Lightning Ridge, New South Wales, Australia
Trivia:
Australian actor Paul Hogan was mellow-voiced and rugged enough to succeed as an action hero, but he loved making people laugh, something he'd been doing on a professional basis since his debut as a blindfolded, tap dancing knife thrower on the Aussie TV amateur contest New Faces. With his late-1970s weekly half hour TV show The Paul Hogan Show, he became the most popular comedian in Australia. His material was limited to a handful of subjects -- breasts, bums, beer, and soccer -- but the series' selling card was Hogan's ability to play a wide variety of distinct characterizations, sometimes making the transition from one character to another so quickly that he literally seemed to be two different people. Hogan was able to expand his popularity to England with a series of commercials for Australian Lager Beer; but though The Paul Hogan Show had been shown on a smattering of American independent and PBS stations, he was largely unknown in the U.S. While visiting New York in 1985, Hogan was struck by the wide cultural gaps between the Big Apple and the Outback. With his manager John Cornell as director, Hogan took a big chunk of his TV earnings and produced an amiable culture-clash comedy, Crocodile Dundee (Hogan and Cornell owned 65 percent of the picture, the rest going to the circle of friends who'd invested in the project). To make sure that American audiences would be primed for this film, Hogan agreed to film a series of "visit Australia" ads for no salary. The strategy worked: Crocodile Dundee opened big in the U.S. in the fall of 1986, ultimately posting a worldwide gross of $375,000,000. While filming Dundee, the long-married Hogan fell in love with leading lady Linda Kozlowski; after divesting himself of wife number one (he claimed that the marriage was on the rocks anyway), Hogan made Kozlowski his bride -- and his most frequent costar in subsequent productions. Those later Paul Hogan vehicles failed to match the popularity of Crocodile Dundee, but included Crocodile Dundee II, Lightning Jack, and Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles. Hogan and Kozlowski divorced in 2014.
Linda Kozlowski
(Actor)
.. Sue Charlton
Born:
January 07, 1958
Trivia:
Juilliard graduate Linda Kozlowski made her off-Broadway debut in 1981's How It All Began. In 1984, the blonde, coolly sensual Kozlowski was cast as "good-time girl" Miss Forsythe in the revival of Death of a Salesman, a role she repeated in the 1985 movie version. She became a full-fledged film star in the internationally popular Crocodile Dundee (1986), in which she appeared with her future husband Paul Hogan; she went on to co-star with Hogan in Crocodile Dundee II (1989) and Almost an Angel (1990). In 1988, Kozlowski stirred up controversy with her (implied) nude bondage scene in the TV miniseries Favorite Son. She was seen in the 1995 remake of Village of the Damned, and then took a lengthy break from acting to spend time with her family. Kozlowski returned to the Dundee franchise in 2001 with Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles and then returned to her retirement.
John Meillon
(Actor)
.. Wally
Born:
January 01, 1934
Died: January 01, 1989
Died: January 01, 1989
Trivia:
Veteran Australian character actor John Meillon is best remembered for playing Paul Hogan's partner in Crocodile Dundee (1988) and its sequel, but his film career began in 1959 when he played a sailor in Stanley Kubrick's On the Beach. Meillon made his acting debut at age 11 on the radio and the year after first performed on-stage. He spent the early '60s in Britain where he appeared in such films as The Longest Day (1962), but returned to Australia mid-decade. He gained national fame when he starred in the popular television series My Name's McGooley, What's Yours? Meillon spent the rest of his career working in television and feature films.

Reginald Veljohnson
(Actor)
.. Gus
Born:
August 16, 1952
Birthplace: Queens, New York, United States
Birthplace: Queens, New York, United States
Trivia:
African-American actor Reginald VelJohnson is the ideal choice for "urban everyman" roles: his sour-apple facial expression, bald pate, and chubby frame are perfectly suited for the many policemen and blue-collar workers he has played over the years. Beginning in small parts in films like Ghostbusters (1984), VelJohnson gained a following with supporting roles in Crocodile Dundee (1986) and Die Hard (1988). A guest spot as an undercover cop on a 1989 episode of TV's Perfect Strangers led to VelJohnson's longest professional engagement to date. In the company of former Perfect Strangers regular Jo-Marie Payton-France, Reginald VelJohnson, since the fall of 1989, starred as Chicago cop Carl Winslow on the weekly comedy series Family Matters.
